    I don't think Frazier is a top 10 HW to be honest.

    Joe Frazier

    Unfortunately, Joe doesn't make the Top 10.

    Ezzard Charles is right there with Joe in the Top 15.

    I always put Foreman higher on the list than most. To me he is a quintessential great. I was born too late to watch him live but did get to enjoy his comeback. I also have a George Foreman grill.

    I do realize every time I rank him I can't say unbiased as I'm a Foreman nuthugger but I do believe a decent argument could be raised by many to justify having Foreman higher than I often see. I could watch his fights on YouTube all day and I am in the middle of watching when we were Kings for the thrice time. I'm sure we all have fighters we feel that way about.

    Rocky Marciano and then 2nd for me is George Foreman. I am mesmerized by the concept of sheer brutish power, and how it nullifies (usually) all the gay ballerina bullcrap in one single shot or 2.

    Frazier beats Rocky and would have a great fight with Evander Holyfield. Joe does probably lose to Lennox.

    Foreman was not a great champion neither was Holyfield.

    Ezzard Charles is the greatest light heavyweight ever not heavyweight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Better than The Mongoose?

    YOu think Frazier beats Rocky? I think Frazier cannot REACH Rocky with the left, Rocky would turn so sideways that Joe wouldnt reach him with that hook AT ALL Rock would come underneath after Joe missed wildly, and break all his ribs on his left side. I can see it now. Frazier had a pissy right hand.
