Rate these 4 heavyweights in order of best?

Question

Dempsey, Tyson, Frazier and Marciano

Answer 1

dempsey

marciano (tie: difficult to separate the top two here)

frazier

tyson

Answer 2

Thumbs up to Chuck i also think Marciano would be top. Second place is the hardest to call but i would give the edge to Dempsey and Frazier who would be third just behind him with Tyson MILES behind in 4th place.

Answer 3

To those that list Tyson first, Did he ever beat ANYBODY the was considered a high quality heavyweight, in their prime?

#1, Marciano Wins - Walcott, E. Charles, Walcott.

#2, Dempsey - Wins - Willard, Sharkey   Lost Tunney

#3 Frazier - Win Ali, Ellis 2x, Quarry 2x, Bugner. Lost Foreman 2x, Ali 2x

#4 Tyson - Wins - Tucker, Raddock, Lost Douglas, Holyfield, Lewis.

I dismissed Marciano's win vs Louis because Louis was old

I dismissed Tyson's wins over Holmes, (old) and Spinks was a blown up Lightheavy.

Marciano did nothing but win

Dempsey has wins over quality opponents

Frazier has a win over Ali & his losses were against other "all-time fighters"

Tyson beat no great fighters in their prime. I dismissed his last 2 losses, due to his age and circus like lifestyle. But he still has a loss to B. Douglas(journeyman) and Lewis and Holyfield.
