    Robin Givens would also be a hell of a lot more irrelevant.

    If he died during his peak he would've ranked higher, the ledger/cobain effect.

    If Ike Ibeabuchi hadnt called that hooker that night he'd have been the natural successor to Lennox Lewis. Theres no HW today even comes close

    Ike probably would've done something else later on.

    He's a lunatic.

    he would be thought of as one of the greatest because of: 1. the age at which he captured then unified the titles. 2. His aggressive, crowd pleasing style. 3. His undeniable power 4. His use of the lost art of head movement. The criticisms of who he didn't beat, how if people stood up to him he'd falter, etc. would not have existed.
