    The only case you could make for that entire list is Holyfield and maybe Holmes.

    Bowe is a very bold pick. Otherwise not bad, Frazier might be a bit high but I could live with it. Tyson in a top ten is always going to be a bit controversial I think.

    Lennox Lewis shouldn't be anywhere near that list much less top 3. That is crazy. No one who get's ktfo by journeymen twice is top 10 of all time because it wasn't anything but pure lazyness on Lewis' part.

    Lewis ranks in the upper teens at the most of all time, maybe low 20's.
