Thats 8 right there. No doubt about them I hope for anybody at all?

Now choose from Gene Tunney, Sam Langford, Max Schmeling, Sonny Liston, Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson, Joe Frazier, Ezzard Charles, Joe Walcott, Floyd Patterson, and K2.
I have Liston, Holyfield, and Frazier ahead of Lewis.
No way my friend. Liston does not belong in the top 25, he had no heart, and was sloth like. Frazier was a runt with a lot of heart, but not enough to get him into the top ten. Holyfield is 11 or 12, in my opinion.
Marciano is there--and well deserved--because of his indefeated status. I have no idea why Dempsey is in the top ten, top twenty yes. Johnson is there because he was--also richly deserved--a black pioneer, and master boxer-puncher.
Take Dempsey out of the top ten.
Insert W. Klitschko, now we are looking better, and have two spots to fill.
So Frazier, Liston, Dempsey and Holyfield don't make the top ten but Wlad does? Who else does? Akinwande perhaps, or maybe Bruce Seldon.
