Who is the greatest heavyweight boxer that ever lived,Ali,Joe Louis Or Rocky Marciano

There is hardly a definite single pick for the greatest, as you could always argue otherwise.

Going through the eras, we got:

Joe Louis
Rocky Marciano
Muhammad Ali
George Foreman
Larry Holmes
Lennox Lewis
Wladimir Klitschko

 

1... The Greatest Muhammad Ali
2... Rocky Marciano & Lennox Lewis
3... Joe Louis

 

H2H Lennox Lewis

 

:rofl people saying Lennox Lewis. atsch

 

Ali... also I think Marciano is very underrated.

 

David Tua, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Vitali Klitschko, Tommy Morrison, Ray Mercer, Rid***** Bowe via intimidation, makes a good argument.

 

:nut ROFLMAO :nut I cannot think of any better answeratsch

 

Dempsey or Louis

 

Because there is no better answer

 

Just look at this vicious, no-nonsense mauler and decide for yourself:

Just listen to Muhammad Ali's talking about Marciano: "In his heyday, he might have won... he probably would have."

Marciano's only disputed win was the first fight with Roland LaStarza, because they used New York's "No Draw" scoring system. Basically, one judge had it for LaStarza, one had it for Marciano and one had it a draw.

The scoring system they used basically added up all the points, and Marciano came out on top. So people today say that by today's rules, Marciano would not have won.

But that's rubbish. That system did not award extra points for knockdowns. Marciano floored LaStarza in the fourth round. By today's rules, he would have got an extra point and the judge who had it a draw would have scored it for Marciano, giving him a split decision win.:deal
