The only ****ney in Lennox is up his date. Dempsey just shades Lennox for mine, but Lennox must be the best fighter Canada has ever produced.
when you rate him to the best fighters we have produced in the last 20 years darchinyan and tszyu....oh wait a minute .....
think you'd see a different lennox lewis fighting in 43 degree heat under the midday sun in downtown toledo , might meltdown after a few rounds - then dempseys punching bag.
do you not think with dempseys face first wide open style vs lewis's precise heavy shots and massive size deficit is a bad match up
well if you knew anything spastic, you would know he flew his time machine to the 50's and ko'd marciano in a private contest.
just saying lewis massive size would count against him if he had fought in certain fights in the past , dempsey fought in rings that were exposed to blazing summer sunlight that saps your willpower after a few rounds , how would lewis fare in manilla in oct 75 after a few rounds , i am absolutely certain if he had'nt have got ali or frazier knocked out early lewis would quit on his stool by the 10th round . i still rate lewis as one of the best modern heavys , just know hes very beatable by champions of the past era - got a chin that can be cracked.
ppl underestimate lewis' chin.if you look at his 2 ko losses they where punches that would ko pretty much anyone.both times hayemakers that landed perfectly.take a look at the punishment he took off briggs and vk for starters 2 big hitters never flinched him.frazier wouldnt get near lewis would be a similar match up to foreman ffor him,dempsey would be out of there in the first ali is obviously a different kettle of fish
ha ha ha ha good one that frazier would'nt get near lewis , lewis aint no foreman throwing haymakers from the bell , totally different style . took lennox 8 eight rounds to stop a totally shot tyson . in manila 75 conditions , frazier probably makes the 18 stoner quit, just the right enviroment where being 248 lbs plus works against the giants of the modern era.
