If you think they wouldn't be able to compete then ask yourselves why you think Lennox, who hasn't been in a ring for almost a decade is somehow less prone to ageing than those guys?
He ain't coming back, and if he did he wouldn't be Lennox Lewis anymore.
Look at Tua, Holyfield, Morrison, Mercer, Rahman etc.
Evander Holyfield did arguably beat Nikolai Valuev though :)

Valuev was a beltholder, but he was never really top 10.
I do agrre Evander did enough, in a fucking awful fight.
But right now Evander isn't top 40 imo. His last few fights have been embarrssing. Did you see his fight where he was getting his head boxed off a couple fights ago to some bum and then made out he couldn't see out of his cut eye to get a no contest. Sad.
