Who is the worst heavyweight champion?

[SBleeder]

Lineal champions of course right? cause it gets annoying if we count all the alphabet titles.
1) Jess Willard
2)Leon Spinks
3)James J Jeffries.

WTH? Tell me you're joking...

Willard went 26 rounds in the Havana sun against Jack Johnson, why was he so bad?

Because he defended his title successfully one time in four years, and received one of the most epic beatings of all time in heavyweight title fight history.

Shannon Briggs was lineal after the Foreman fight. I think he's probably flatten Leon, but he deserves mention.

[Daddy T]

Leon Spinks, Michael Bent, Bruce seldon

If we're talking Lineal Champions then Hasim Rahman has to be up there.

Jeffries worse than Carnera? Are you sure you don't want to rethink that one?

Willard went 26 rounds in the Havana sun against Jack Johnson, why was he so bad?

He beat an old and tired Johnson. The rest of his career was mediocre and he is a joke as a hall of famer.

I don't have time to think them up now, but it's not Ruiz. There have been worse (Seldon, Botha, etc.).

seldon is up there but botha has had a solid career but he got stripped for steroids so he never actually was champion.

[joe strong]

1. Ruiz
2. Valuev
no 3 not so sho

ruiz beat some excellent fighters so i don't know how you can say him. he was boring but he fought many good fighters. valuev is up there though....

[Canelo Phresh]

Carnera was a one trick pony and was probably the worst but i love watching his fights to be honest. M favorite is him getting beat up by max baer.

Leon Spinks, Michael Bent, Bruce seldon

bentt was not a world champion he was the WBO champion when that belt was nothing more then a stepping stone regional belt. WBO was not recognized as a "world" title until 2005. anyone who held it before then was not a world champion...
