Heavyweights of the 1970s

The 1970's... Arguably the finest era for Heavyweights in the history of boxing! Not only did the 70's offer us great champions, such as Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Ken Norton and Larry Holmes, but the decade also exhibited a depth of talent that may never be seen again in any lifetime. Many of the names that appear on this list may not have been world beaters, but they certainly did give it their all...well in most cases they did anyways. I hope that all of you enjoy this page as much as Mike and I have enjoyed putting it together.
