    I would say Ali does for certain. Foreman and Liston would be my 50-50.

    it looks like we're still hovering around 3-4 names. Would any other boxer other than Ali have had such a good result?

    Good list! I have to add Joe Louis as a total favorite, FOTC Frazier, and Holyfield too.

    Why would Joe Louis be favoured over Tyson? Mike has faster hands, faster feet, more power and a better chin. He's also a hellacious combination puncher himself.

    Please, without using a vibes based argument like "Joe is just too good", can someone explain why they think this? I see people sneaking him in with Ali, Foreman and Lewis and just think "one of these things is not like the other".
