We don't need a heavyweight Frankenstein, Lennox Lewis fits the bill nicely.

Nah...............
You have to pick heavies.
Valuev is too tall and probably has too long a reach to actually use boxing skills.

the only problem with lennox was his habit of losing focus at times either in training or in the ring. I think his chin was fine. He had everything else. You give him Marciano's consistent work ethic and focus, Lewis is the greatest hw of all-time at least in H2h sense.

I would have said Lewis was #1 H2H anyway.
On resume, somewhere in the lower reaches of the top 5, perhaps just outside......
Hence I rank him #2/3 of all time.

I would use Frankenstein himself. Hopefully the boxing board would allow him to be recharged by a bolt of lightening after every round.
Size - Lewis
Speed - Tyson
Power - Tyson
Chin - Tua
Smarts - Lewis
And no that fighter would not be awesome, he would be severely lacking in mental application.

h2h Ali beats Lewis, Louis beats Lewis, Holmes beats Lewis and prime Tyson beats Lewis. I could imagine Liston being a handful and Holyfield i'd pick too... Sorry guys you underrating the oldies. I don't often say that.
Louis is about the most overrated H2H heavyweight you could find. How people see him beating Ali to make him the #1 heavy of all-time astounds me. Ali would be far too quick on his feet for him.
Lewis has a good 40-50lbs on him and he fights tall and mobile too. That would be a very very difficult fight for him.

No chance Louis was the Greatest Heavy of all time. His punch picking, movement and ruthless finishing would have been too much for any heavy h2h the guy was an incredible fighting machine. THE GREATEST - no doubt in my mind. Ali-Louis would have been close. But Louis jab would have caught Ali napping and over 15 rounds Louis would use his body shots to break him down. If I get to heaven i'm booking a ringside for this one.

i certainly would not agree with that, i think louis gets koed by lewis as does tyson. i think ali and holmes are the ones that might beat him with speed ring smarts and good movement. Joe louis has to weak a chin to beat lewis imo he wouldn't be able to take the shots lewis could get off and i think tyson at no point could beat lewis and is vastly overated.
I have just read the other stuff you said about louis and no doubts he is a greater heavy than lewis overall but h2h lewis is a style nightmare for louis.

I would agree with his accuracy and his power, for quite a small man are exceptional. He does have some slick moves, more than people think.
But overall, beating Ali or Lewis...no way. Ali would just be too damn quick on his feet floating around the ring. His jab is quicker and superior too. The speed would be the difference, Louis would look very cumbersome plodding around the ring in that matchup.
As for beating Lewis...no way no how. Lewis ain't losing to a cruiserweight by todays standards. He would keep him on the end of the jab and pummel him. He has well over 3 stone on him for christ sake, it would be masscare. I don't think there is any logical way for a 200lb man to beat a guy that stands 6'5 250lbs with a piston like jab, and also proven ring smarts that negates most of his punchers chance.
Joe Louis was down to a little guy like Jersey Joe...christ when Lewis hits him his life would change. People have to realize when they match up guys like Louis he was essentially a cruiserweight fighting cruiserweights for the most part, with losses to former light heavyweights and middleweight Walcott and Charles. Is there any possible way for Lewis to lose to Ezzard Charles? I think that really highlights the difference.
