Compelling argument, he allows for the fact a HW could lose any individual fight but argues that with physical tools and skill level Lennox probably beats every HW in a best out of 10 type situation

I also thought it was interesting and have thought similar thoughts the fighter that intrigues me the most in this conversation is Foreman.

I like Navarrete but imo he ends up like Berchelt if he fights Valdez unless he has an absolute caveman chin.
Volume guy with a questionable defense getting countered by the better-schooled puncher left and right... I can see that here
I hope we still get to see that fight later though
I think he does have that type of chin which is the only reason the fights is that intriguing to me.

Funny enough that is the one fighter I thought of too. That is the only one I can think of I can't see Lennox beating at all, think Foreman would batter him actually.

Rank him as what? The problem is he had Hearns number...those are his elite wins...but man did he take some beatings from other greats and lesser fighters
Yea. For a while I wondered why he was even mentioned along the greats as I first saw him after the beating from Toney.

But he was competitive against Hearns and Duran. And Benns career may have been a bit different if he was disqualified in their fight

That Toney fight was brutal
