    MOST nights, NO, BUT I still think George Foreman had better career, even post 1986.
    Example: Chris Byrd would always had the speed advantage, but I could easily see Foreman doing what he did to Michael Moorer to Chris Byrd.
    Byrd always struck me as a low risk high reward kinda guy as a small heavyweight

    1986 til now is quite a long span of time and when you look back at all the fighters, I suppose Michael Moorer has a good case to be considered as a top 10 HW since '86 with his resume too

    This is a lot closer to the truth, but have you maybe forgotten Fres Oquendo?

    If we're talking since 00 then the Klits are 1 and 2. The 90s was Lewis who cleaned that out for the most except the coward Bowe. 86-90 is obviously Mike.
