Have you heard about George Foreman and Earnie Shavers? They are much more powerful punchers than Tyson. But you see they haven't made it to the list. While Shvers wasn't good technically, Foreman could make it to the list had his fight against Ali went in his favour.
I think there is an argument for Foreman being on the list as well.
I like this analysis on a comparison between Foreman and Tyson.
“Foreman is more heavy-handed, Tyson is more explosive. Foreman is more consistently strong with his punches but Tyson is able to generate harder punches as long as he’s not tired and his form is not compromised. In other words, Tyson's best punches hit harder than Foreman's best punches but Foreman's mediocre punches hit harder than Tyson's mediocre punches. Fighting Foreman would be like getting repeatedly hit by sledgehammers. Fighting Tyson would be like having dynamite explode in your face every now and then.”

That's why he's not. Foreman isn't there as well but they both are more powerful a puncher than Tyson. Tyson can be at 11 but not in the Top 10, though I accept it's subjective and we may have differences. Will you please give me your list of top 10?

Who would you remove from my list?
