    Four years is long time to hold on the title of unidisputed champion, that would never happen now.

    Lets see about 10 (9) tittle defences. Undisputed heavyweight champion. Two time heavey weight champion. Extremly popular during his peak. Has a Nentendo game.
    He's a Hall of Famer.

    Tyson in his prime was probably the last time I followed the HW division.

    I was speaking more so towards that era of HW's. Since he went to prison the division went down hill. Lewis was a good champ, but no competition.

    Abso-****ing-lutely!

    Has anyone here actually been to the IBHOF? It's like a collection of memorabilia from a die-hard fan that can fit in a small garage.
