At the end of last week, British top promoter Eddie Hearn, at the request of
DAZN announced his top 10 best heavyweights in boxing history.
True, the functionary could not meet the top ten, naming 11 personalities. At the same time, he placed three current heavyweight leaders in two positions.
Also noteworthy is the absence of Joe Louis in the list.
In general, here are the top 10 heavyweights of all time according to Hearn:
one. Muhammad Ali
2. Joe Frazier
3. Mike Tyson
four. Lennox Lewis
5. Sunny Liston
6. Evander Holyfield
7. Riddick Bow
eight. George Foreman
9-11. Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk
Recall that two of the announced list, namely Usyk and Joshua, should meet in a rematch very soon.
In September last year, Alexander took away the WBA / WBO / IBF world titles from Joshua, winning on points in England. On August 20, they will meet again, this time in Saudi Arabia.
Fury, who holds the WBC title, announced his retirement in April, but is ready to return: he named the opponent and the conditions.
