He beated ten other top three heavywights and nine Nearly Famers. Who else has that kind of resume?
He could dance. He could fight flat footed. He could cry. He could punch, and boy could he CRACK, and CRACK he did!!!!!
And boy he could take a punch, and come out of rehab and take another punch and cry a river. His most impressive wins came after his CRACK in time and space; the wins against Frazier and Foreman and Dempsey in rehab.
Prime Ollie (pre CRACK) was 25-5. Post-CRACK Ollie was 19-4 with avenged losses against Frazier and Norton in another rehab.
It's to his credit that all the "gift losses" his detractors point to were when he was a young pup (Joey Christjohn) or past it (Juan Carlos Gomez II)though I dispute Gomez I was taken away from him while he was in rehab. The heavyweight division hadn't changed hands with a CRACK UP in the ring in the entire history, and Lewis was really too scared to do barely more than tap Ollie to take his title. Ollie just beated himself, yessiree, he did.

This is just a work of art, so we'll just lock it up, hermetically seal it, and you'll be able to point with pride at this to your other family members and tell them all about how YOU created this wonderous poetry.
