    1. "The Brown Bomber" Joe Louis
    2. "Iron" Mike Tyson Tyson!
    3. Lennox Lewis

    That Ali and Clay are one and the same? Not to me. Nice try though... Guess you thought you were smart for the first time in your life for a second.

    What possible justification exsists for Jack in the top 5?

    1 - Muhammad Ali
    2 - Joe Louis
    3 - Sonny Liston
    4 - Lennox Lewis
    5 - Joe Frazier

    1. Ali (Best Competition)
    2. Joe Louis (Completely dominant in his prime, great overall resume)
    3. George Foreman (Great at 25, won a title at 45, best ko %)
    4. Mike Tyson (Most dominant force in his prime)
    5. Jack Dempsey (Tyson before there was a Tyson)

    1. Muhammad Ali
    2. Joe Louis
    3. Rocky Marciano
    If you had the first three an any order I wouldn't argue with you
    4. Mike Tyson
    5. Lennox Lewis
    6. Larry Holmes
    I know that is more than 5 but I think these three boxers are interchancable in the 4,5 and 6 spots.
