This generation of heavies...does it simply suck?

It's not a great era for greatness but Usyk is the obvious exception.

 

Yes but on the other side, Ali was beating Sonny Liston for the world heavyweight champion at age 22 and 1 month.
Usyk was still losing in the semi finals at the amateur world championship tournament at that age.

 

What do you think the 1970s mixed with 2015-2025’s top ten HW’s would look like?

 

I’ve always seen Holmes as an 80s fighter he didn’t do that much in the 70s as in that “golden” period people bang on about with Ali, Frazier and Foreman he was just a contender “a guy” in the rankings but you can include him that’s up to you.

 

Chisora ain’t so bad he’s a 260lbs guy with punch stat numbers like Joe Frazier… he’s been a hard luck, gate keeper who basically gives everybody a bit of trouble and stylistically I think he matched Usyk very well but he still lost, people don’t give the 70s flack for Bonavena, Mildenberger and Cooper giving Ali a tougher fight then “ATG” George Foreman… seems like a sideways way of looking at things.
