    I think Frazier was the best fighter of the group, but Lewis would beat them all.

    Stevenson looked the best out of the ones listed though Frazier and Lennox were very good too. Also Solis deserves a mention he was a beast as an amateur and he beat Savon.

    I know but . . . if you'll consider the fighting style he'll surely be among the top choices.

    Amateur is a different game buddy . . . the ability to throw clear punches that hit is the only thing which counts. The footwork and hand speed give the guy an edge over the rest. Her brought that speed and agility in the PRO in the heavy weight division.

    Cuban fighters had probably little edge...they were older and more experienced than most European or American fighters.

    He chose to stay himself. The man lives like a king overthere or at least did back then.

    Lennox Lewis.If Vysotsky could clean Stevenson's clock, then so should Lewis.

    Lots of people beat Savon, Chagaev got him twice. Doesn't change the fact he is one of the greats.

    Harrison left all his fight in the amateurs. That is what happens when you turn pro too old.
