I can see an argument for that.
in fact I have him exactly at #10
Ali
Louis
Marciano
Holmes
Foreman
Johnson
Frazier
Tyson
Lewis
Charles
Marciano a little high for me and I'd have Holyfield instead of Tyson.
depends what the criteria is and what carries more kudos. Longevity, domination, on their best night , etc. But I would have Tyson Higher (Much Higher) and i'll be honest, I don't think I would have Frazier there at all.
Joe Frasier had more defences than all except Louis, Holmes and Wlad.
Ezzard Charles was the greatest light heavy of them all in my opinion he beat Moore and that says it all. The fact that he went on to become a heavyweight champion further enhances his legacy just like Holyfield but it was not his best weight.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
