    Top 10 Heavyweights

    Okay, this topic has been done to death, but this was an interesting (although lacking in areas) article. Old, and probably read before by many, but I found it quite entertaining to chew on. It's neat to see what the trainers think; it's also interesting to read their selections and comments.



    As for mine, which is subject to change after 1-3 at any given moment:

    1. Joe Louis
    2. Muhammad Ali
    3. Rocky Marciano
    4. George Foreman
    5. Jack Johnson
    6. Larry Holmes
    7. Joe Frazier
    8. Sonny Liston
    9. Mike Tyson
    10. Jack Dempsey/Gene Tunney (not just because they fought each other)

    Like the Big Ten Conference, I really have 11.

    those trainers had good lists, but i can't believe that Freddie Roach put James Toney on his list, I mean I know he trains him and all, but come on, do you really think that Toney is a top 10 heavyweight, not me.

    as for mine:

    1. Joe Louis
    2. Muhammad Ali
    3. Gene Tunney
    4. Jack Dempsey
    5. Rocky Marciano
    6. Sonny Liston
    7. George Foreman
    8. Sam Langford
    9. Joe Frazier
    10. Larry Holmes

      lennox lewis gets no respect on this forum, this is hilarious. Sam Langford on a top 10 heavyweight list, why are the fans of this sport so gullable to the hype of old legends.

          Butterfly, lennox lewis is a guaranteed top 10 heavyweight of all times, the people that disagree know nothing about this sport. You know it and i know it.

                    i feel gene tunney has been severly underrated . he was 88-1-2 if my memory serves.
