1. Ali 2. Lewis 3. I don't know... I sympathise with those who would say Louis took on all comers, and I sympathise with those who count the...
In my humble opinion. Lewis does really well in the 1970s (does really well in any era ever, to be fair), and beats almost everyone, at least once...

Bro, I'm just copying and pasting the top 50 of my '100 Best British Boxers' list that I made a couple of years ago. (deleting those who made...

I love both these fighters. But I think Holyfield batters Norton to a referee's stoppage.
Some great lists here. Am I just being a casual by noting the lack of love for Ike Quartey (I see @Flo_Raden mentioned him)? Surely he should...
