Interesting.
I'm not surprised to find he was a big Marciano admirer.

 

1. Ali
2. Louis
3. Holmes
4. Marciano
5. Johnson
6. Dempsey
7. Foreman
8. Frazier
9. Lewis
10.Liston

 

What makes Holmes reign so superb that Frazier can't be ranked higher? He didn't unify, avoided many of the top challengers and took an easier route because of "politics" and "money." Holmes never got slaughtered but he did lose at to a former LHW, albeit a great one and when he was aging.

My Bakers Dozen:

Louis
Ali
Holmes
Marciano
Dempsey
Johnson
Liston
Foreman
Frazier
Tunney
Patterson
Holyfield
Lewis

 

Haven't put together a list in idk how long so I guess I'll put one out to see what it looks like. I'm omitting everyone pre Dempsey because I find it increasingly difficult to rank them with modern fighters.

1. Ali
2. Louis
3. Marciano
4. Holmes
5. Tyson
6. Liston
7. Lewis
8. Frazier
9. Foreman
10. Holyfield

Thought about swapping Ali and Louis but decided against it...basically they are 1A and 1B. I weigh head to head and dominance at their best pretty highly i.e. how good they looked and were in the era.
Marciano was a badass.

 

Yet again,mine are -
Ali
Louis
Holmes
Foreman
Frazier
Liston
Lewis

Holyfield
Johnson
