Top 15 Heavyweights of all time?

The first 4 remain the same....the others I am always reevaluating. Something like...

Ali
Louis
Lewis
Marciano
Foreman
Frazier
Johnson
Charles
Usyk
Holyfield (would be higher except for PEDs).
Tyson
Holmes
Wlad Klitschko
Liston
Dempsey

 

Ali/Louis/Lewis/Foreman/Frazier/Holmes/ Holyfield/

Larry would choke you.

 

If I didn't know Larry better I'd think you meant that he was looking for a fight.

Just doesn't have the big wins, which would be OK if he had gotten the best he could in front of him, but he didn't. His status would have gone considerably if he had just fought Page when it was in front if him, and one of two more of Dokes, Tubbs, Thomas, Coetzee...then I would say that he did the best he could to fight the best. But he didn't.

 

In chrono order.

Langford
Fulton
Dempsey
Wills
Tunney
Louis
Liston
Ali
Frazier
Foreman
Norton
Holmes
Lennox Lewis
Bowe
Wladimir Klitschko

I can't believe I forgot Bowe. I feel like an idiot.
