I wouldn't snicker if someone placed Lennox Lewis at number 10 on their All-Time list. I rank Tyson in my 10 spot and he prob shouldn't be there, but any higher than 10 for either man is completely unfounded.

I have Lewis at 4.

Mind you my list is based on a fair bit of hypothetical thinking.
A few good men miss out in my book.

1. Joe Louis
2. Muhammad Ali
3. Larry Holmes
4. Lennox Lewis
5. Rocky Marciano
6. Joe Fraizer
7. Jack Johnson
8. Geroge Forman
9. Sonny Liston
10. Mike Tyson

Lewis was good, a dominant champion but................
He was not the real superstar that the HW division needed and needs.
Not only his fault, the era he fought in was not one to remember for a very long time

hmmmmmm, sure he had one punch KO power but Tyson landed the heavier blows on a more consistent basis....Everyone of Tyson's punches/combinations were more or less intended to knock the guy out.

Yeah make you right there. Sonny 10th.

Foreman came back at 45 or 47. Plus he fought in the golden age. Plus he would of whuped Ali in a rematch ;)

I would definately have Tyson at 8 i will look at doing this in a bit weigh them all up and do my own top ten ;D

He was a special heavyweight and definitely the best since Larry Holmes .
