    Muhammad Ali
    Joe Louis
    Lennox Lewis
    Larry Holmes
    Rocky Marciano
    George Foreman
    Joe Frazier
    Evander Holyfield
    Mike Tyson
    Sonny Liston

    That's mines by the way Frankenfrank. First time I've thought about a heavyweight top ten. It'll take some tinkering until I'm fully happy, but that is my top ten. Order of it is the only thing I'm not fully set on.

    Napoleon Bonaparte is too low, and Jtep Louofo is too high.

    do you even know anything about Louofo?? He fought in an era where it was almost impossible for a slave to get a title shot. On top of that a nile crocodile bit half his ****ing face off, he was fighting virtually blind!!!! He fought heavyweights whilst he himself usually only weighed around 138lbs due to malnutrition. I assume you're basing your opinion of him off of the limited poor quality film available on youtube(pfft casual:roll: general forum is one up) which doesnt do him justice. I highly doubt you are factoring obscurity in his ranking as well which makes you less cool and less knowledgable than me, who doesnt post on the general forum and isnt a casual. And i'd guess you havent taken the time to research the stone tabloid tablet decisions he won.

    Ask burt bienstock who the great Jtep Louofo would lick...everybody...if i may..in 433bc i was in Antioch watching the great Harios Lelopup...(a fierce clincher/fisticuffer who often gave up 15lbs!!! to his opponent...and would surely lick anyone post 1940)...preparing for a fight tune up fight against an unknown egyptian slave boy...the fight was over after 15secs...the victor being a 138lb, 12 year old malnourished shitty arsed slave boy...that slave boy was Jtep Louofo...he would go on to become the undisputed, undefeated champion of the world...fighting 625 stone tabloid tablet decisions...in an era surely more stacked that so surely produced greater talent.....with only half an eye and one functioned nostril no less as his face had been bitten off by a nile crocodile...when he was no less a surely only a boy....no doubt he would lick an Ali who fought in a much weaker less nostalgic less obscure era...

    That's something of an integral part of the list, surely.

    Not really. I have a set top ten. I'm happy with my top 4. The rest are subject to change as I learn more about each of them.

    I rate Ruiz a bit higher than that. Probably equal with Lewis behind the Klitschkos.
    I think if he beats Haye he'll definitely move up to GOAT position on everyone's list though. :good
