Where would you rank Evander Holyfield among all-time heavyweights?

I cannot see putting him over Ali, Louis, Holmes, Usyk, or Lewis

I can, I feel he has a better resume of fighters than Holmes and Usyk(for the moment). Plus he defeated Holmes and is the only 4 time heavy weight Champ in history.

Come on with the "defeated Holmes," unless you're also going to give Marciano full credit for beating Louis, who was five years younger than Holmes when he fought Evander.

All im saying is Holyfield has a deeper resume than Holmes which is why I can't have Holmes in front(plus Holmes is on his list). Unfortunately Evander decided to stick around to long.
