Top 20 Heavyweights of all time (Video)

hell of a video
but jim jefferies... really?!

 

Good vid:good

I cant say I agree with it 100% but good nontheless.

Where is Dr Iron fist. And why is wlad lower than Holmes, Why is Holmes #3?

And a couple of those guys would not last 2 rounds with the Gomezs and Harrisons of this era.

I think to make such a list, one would have to transcend generational boundaries, allowing for hypothetical matchups. That said wlad, lewis, vitali, Tyson, Holy, Marciano, and Foreman would round out the top 7, followed by and Holmes, Frazier, Loius.

 

you dont even include ali, in your top 10??? wow- arent u a bright one...

Very good video. Don't agree with all of it but a very good look at the history of the best division in the sport.

The one thing that sticks out to me about many of the guys in this video is that alot of them had very short reigns at the top. Most other weight divisions even down near the 20th spots you'd find guys that had reigns of several years. Not in the heavywieght division. They are a different bread when they are that big and powerful. They often burn brighter and fade quicker. Gotta love it!

 

I was gonna skip through the video but then just couldn't stop watching.

Unreal.

Great work :happy

 

*Great work!...but Holmes #3..REALLY?.. Vitali doesn't belong in there somewhere?

 

Awesome movie I think Vitali belongs in the top 20 but still a great movie.......

 

Where is John L. Sullivan and Gentleman Jim Corbet!

 

Decent list. I find a couple of glaring omissions, but as hard as it is to agree with "P4P" or "All Time" lists, I think it's very good.

My list (which I, obviously, find to be much better):

20. Holyfield
19. Schmeling
18. Langford
17. Patterson
16. Lewis
15. Tunney
14. Liston
13. Charles
12. Wills
11. Frazier
10. Tyson
9. Holmes
8. Jeffries
7. Sullivan
6. Foreman
5. Marciano
4. Dempsey
3. Johnson
2. Ali
1. Louis

 

atschatschatschatschPatterson over Holyfield??? Only 4 time champ.....

Dont even care about rest of the list based on truly a glass chinned Patterson being above Holyfield.
