    As it says, from 1990 onward, which heavyweight s do you see beating The Smoke?

    And I'm talking the snorting, in you're face, FOTC Frazier.

    If that's a serious answer, your mad!
    If it's a jokey answer, then add in Andy Ruiz??

    Lewis absolutely to me, but my God he'd have to prepare big time. No slacking off or sleep walking thru rounds lol, other wise he would be sleeping.

    Any of the big good-to-greats. Lewis, Wlad. Vitali. A good version of Fury. Possibly AJ, and possibly Povetkin. Tyson was on the slide after 1990 but may have had enough in the tank. Holyfield is a good candidate to put forward.

    Crazy part is..... he could probably find a way to win atleast 1 fight against both.

    Only in a looks contest.

    Although, AJ would no longer be a pretty boy when Joe's finished with him.

    To answer the question:

    Lewis and 91 Tyson.

    91 Tyson was no longer 87-88 Tyson, but he was still too powerful and explosive for Joe. And 91 Tyson still retained stamina, unlike post-prison Tyson who was done after 6 rounds.

    A few could. Lewis might be the safest bet. The problem for all though - Frazier circa 1971 was prepared to walk through walls.
