Some of the best heavyweight boxers of all time 

Whenever there is a discussion about the greatest boxers, Muhammad Ali’s name always makes it to the list. Popularly known as ‘The People’s Champion’, Ali was a three-time world heavyweight champion. Furthermore, he also won a gold medal at the 1960 Olympic Games. 

Often nicknamed ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, Mike Tyson was a force to be reckoned with in his heyday. He was known for his out-of-the-world knockouts and the carnage that he brought on his opponents. Interestingly, he is the youngest heavyweight champion in the history of the sport. 

One of the biggest rivalries in boxing was between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. They fought in an era when boxing had some of the finest heavyweights. Frazier was a well-known boxer at the time, and fans used to be extremely excited to see Frazier square off inside the ring.
