    Floyd hater here, but I do not rank Lennox higher. I am no expert though so feel free to prove me wrong.

    Lewis was not undisputed champion if my memory is correct. He became unified champion.

    I have no problem. He's the #3 HW of all time as far as I am concerned with an argument for #1

    Lewis was the last Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the 3 belt Era. The WBO wasn't widely accepted Or looked at as a major sanctioning body until about 2004, one year after Lewis retired.

    Is life fair?

    Hell to the no

    But it is what it is

    As my good friend Torsten from Saxony once told me

    No good crying over spilt milch :deal:
