    To be fair Tyson is a modern day Joe Frazier. Joe Frazier hit very hard brilliant hooks as Tyson did, its hard to compare era's as when Ali, frazier, foreman ETC were fighting that was the best heavy weight era there will ever be.

    Tyson, Liston, Holmes/Lewis make up top 5 for me. I base it purely on them v others at their best.

    7 johnson
    8 tyson

    if head to head, vitali and bowe would have been included.

    Holy. A prime Holy was a double edge sword that could box beautifully or ko an opponent. He was great to watch and had a heart of a lion. He is one that had a great chance to beat any HW in history if there was a time machine.

    Lewis or Holmes IMO.

    Have we not already established at this stage that we dont talk about Sugar Niko in thread's like this because otherwise there would be no point in making one?

    Lennox Lewis is definitely more deserving of the third place spot than Holmes or Foreman IMO. And I'm not even a fan. Lewis's resume has great depth and he beat every man he ever faced.
