Foreman, 3 times world champion? Ali, 5 times? Are we talking about the same sport? Where's Joe Frazier?

I think there is a strange count for sure. Ali was famously 3 time champ but actually he was striped of the belt bc of some bull and had to win it back against ernie terrell for example don't know why 5 time tho hahaha maybe he counts the olympic gold??? should be more clear about that for sure

@@sugarvins9732 yes, they did. But remenber the Cubans boycotted the 84' and 88' olympics because the U.S boycotted the 80' olympics, and there is no way the U.S olympic boxers would have won any medals in boxing if my people were there, maybe Pernell Whittaker would have won a gold medal, the Cubans had an awesome squad.
Joe frazier won the gold with a broken thumb and later beat ali in the fight of the century ... deserved to be in the video
Com'on, there should be Vassiliy Jirov of Kazakhstan 🇰🇿, technically very skilled 🥊 boxer, Atlanta 1996 light heavyweight gold🥇 medalist and Val Barker 🏆 trophy, as well as IBF cruiserweight champion 🏅between 1999 and 2003
Rigondeaux?? 2 veces campeón olimpico...
No smokin Joe Frazier? Rigondeaux? Jirov?
The best and inspirational forever is Mohammed Ali

Floyd Patterson, Joe Frazier, Pernell Whitaker, Meldrick Taylor, Mark Breland, Andre Ward, Kennedy McKinney, Ray Mercer, Spinks Brothers, David Reid, Guillermo Rigondeaux, so many not listed here.
Great quality, never seen the Bowe Lennox fight in that good quality - almost looks like a movie.
David Reid : gold in light middleweight at 1996 Olympic. I was disappointed when whatching he was beaten by Felix Trinidad, having dropped his opponent in 3rd round. It's said he suffered detached retina after Trinidad dropped him in round 7.
Spinks Brothers are among them : Leon Spinks won gold in light HW at 1976 Olympic, Michael in middleweight at the same Olympic.
Amazing!!!!!!
Anthony Joshua is from my hometown.
For the second part: Kovács István, Olympic, amateur world champion ( twice), WBO world champion

This ranking is ridiculous!
3:55 Look at the flags during display of Lennox Lewis. It doesn't represent Super HW medals ceremony. I think it's for HW in which Ray Mercer won the gold beating South Korean. The flag of Poland is for Andrew Golota who took bronze along with Arnold Van der Lyde of Netherland. But I am confused, the other flag is not South Korean flag.
Frazier, Patrizio Oliva, Rigondeaux, Nino Benvenuti, Fidel LaBarba?
What about Roy Jones Jr and Evander Holyfield
Where is Mate Parlov? 1972 Munchen olympic games, light heavyweight gold medal. 1978. Seventh of January WBC world champ.

Great video but wrong music.
They did not include women boxers but a remainder Mary Kom is a 6 time world champion and an 8 time world champion medalist in flyweight category
Pernell Whitaker?
Gamboa, shiming and joshua, couldn’t find any better? Frazer, ward and usyk/rigondeaux for example.
Falto de esta época Guillermo Rigondeaux
Where can i watch the Fight from 2:11
Oscar de la hoya was the champion more times than all of them.

To qualify for Olympics is something, because you beat everybody nationally to get there. To become an Olympic Gold Medalist is Special, because you literally beat everybody to get that wrapped around your neck.

Michael Spinks ended Larry Holmes dominance during 80s. We know Holmes ended Ali's career. So, I would add Michael to the list.
