    He would be a cracking Cruiserweight though, can you imagine Rocky Marciano vs Evander Holyfield at Cruiserweight ? Wow is all i can say.
    couldnt imagine many more fights batter than that one

    when we discuss top 10 heavys maybe we should class the smaller heavys from yrs back in the weights they would be today?

    Im in agreement with Ice,Holmes would snipe him to death with that jab,Lewis has this little hitch when he's stalking where he drops his hands and resets them before he throws. Holmes would drill the jab every time he did that. The only way I could see Lewis winning that fight is if Holmes got cocky and pressed him.

    Lennox Lewis got outjabbed against Ray Mercer, Frank Bruno, theres no way he could handle that piston like left jab of Larry Holmes.

    Holmes could be the Greatest Heavy of all time, but we don't know because he never had to fight a Lewis, a Holyfield, a Tyson (prime) or an Ali (Prime). I would love to have seen Holmes and Tyson in their primes at the same time, really can't call that one

    Rocky marciano isn't a heavyweight anymore. if marciano was 6'5" and 255 lbs he would ko lewis faster than rahman did. Lennox lewis had a distinct size and weight advantage in most of his fights. Rocky marciano had a distinct height and weight disadvantage in most of his fights. Big difference.

    Size advantages have nothing to do with it ,are we saying Lewis at 255lbs was the best HW ?

    Or we could call them the POUND FOR POUND Heavyweights taking into account the various era's lol
