Does not have to be the real linear HW champ,it can be one of the joking champions who have held paper titles.(wbc,ibf,wba,wbo ect.)
In the last few years there are so many to pick from.
But from 1980 and before I would say Canera,Jess Willard and Jim Bradock jump to the front of my mind.
Of the old, I would say Marvin Hart, Of the new I would say Michael BentQuote:

Im with Master on creampuff Damiani....also Henry Akiwande.
How can we also forget The "White water buffalo" Frans Botha.Gets IBF strap on a terrible blindman descision against Axel Shultz and then gets stripped 3 months later for using the funny juice.
Leon Spinks for me.
Bloody hell mate theres 100's take your pick.
Michael Dokes
Gerrie Coetzee
John Tate
Marvin Hart
Primo Carnera
Francesco Damiani
Michael Bentt
John Ruiz
Shannon Briggs
Bruce Seldon
Leon Spinks
Buster Douglas!
I forgot Oleg Maskaev too.
Sultan Ibragimov is pretty discrageful.
I guess there should be two different crieria
Guys who got either fed the belt or got stupid lucky-Ruiz,Braddock
Or guys who blew promising careers-Douglas,Spinks
Frank Bruno
I'd flip a coin between Carnera & Bent.
Jim Braddock wasn't a bad champion he beat Max Baer and lost to Joe Louis....what's bad about that????
evander holyfield for me i know he has acheived alot with his career its just a personal thing i just hate him.:beatdeadhorse:
Primo Carnera or Shannon Briggs

I say Gerrie Coetzee.
Bruce Seldon had good skills, but not much heart as Oliver McCall and Mike Tyson proved.
Speaking of McCall I respect the guy and like him, but he shoulda never been heavyweight champion.
Jess Willard was fucking horrid. I mean pretty much no skill there. All size, toughness and power.
Trevor Berbick, God rest his soul, was crap too.
And Nicoli Valuev is no Ali either.
