    I don't see how one fighter could be easily named H2H greatest. I would say Lennox, but every fighter was vulnerable to certain opponents. Lennox would never have lost to Norton, but Ali would likely never have been KO'd cold (although the Cooper fight can shatter that idea somewhat).

    my top ten: Lennox, Ali, Holmes, young Foreman, Tyson, Louis, Klitschkos, Marciano, Bowe

    Tokyo Douglas was truly a master of his craft that night. Same with FOTC Frazier. Corrie Sanders, Oliver McCall, Max Baer when he fought Primo.

    This looks good to me. Although obviously Audley Harrison should have been included, perhaps as a "Super Champion" ahead of Ali.
