Manny Steward talks about Lennox. Great info, 'He wanted to hurt Tyson, no early ko'

Whos fault is that?
Maybe if Tyson hadnt been getting thrown into prison for raping women and getting banned for biting peoples ears, they probably would have fought in their primes.

Also, Tyson was older than Lewis.

 

You probably meant Lewis was older than Tyson.

 

Indeed I did!
Good spot!

 

Great interview thank you for posting!

 

its a shame that a guy so knowledeable and experienced as steward has to commentate with those idiots merchant and lampley.

jim lampley may be the worst commentator ever. both these guys are so bad that they actually do detriment to the fights.

entirely opposite to the guys on showtime.

 

Well you have to have someone who doesn't know anything about boxing to commentate with Steward just for some balance, given that each fight goes exactly as he expected.

 

Because Lewis couldn't move to his left well enough to keep up with Klitschko also Klitschko is better at bringing leverage with the left hand than Lewis. And Klitschko definitely has enough power to KO Lewis. Footwork to the left and a much better left hook advantage Klitschko.

 

Vitali has not the power after round 6 to KO Lewis.

In round 2 Lewis took Vitali´s best punch, a heavy right hand but Lewis took it.

Lewis won TKO 6. And Vitali should thank the doctor. The stoppage was legal.

 

I was talking about the other Klitschko but Vitali would have beaten Lewis in the following round for sure in my book. It was becoming a contest of endurance and that's Vitali's game; Lewis was absolutely exhausted at the end of the last round and he wouldn't have recuperated enough to do anything other than bend forward at his waist and cover up. Klitschko was in much better physical condition than Lewis. There's a reason why Lewis decided he didn't want a second plate of Klitschko knuckle sandwiches, he knew he couldn't win so he retired.

 

cmon lewis would ko wlad within 4 rounds. wlad is not a real born fighter, so he has aonly a luckypuch chance against lewis

 

steward says alot of things that are not true.just go to the video people and then go by what you see and hear.

lewis said he hurt his hand early in the fight and thats what took him so long to finish tyson.

mannys not always honest

 

'You gotta get this man outta here, you **** around and get caught with some crazy ****!'

 

- a genuine fear of getting hit
- a defence that relies on being quicker of foot than his opponents to back up in a straight line before reseting and coming back behind the jab
- a reluctance to commit to power punches against dangerous opponents
- his predictability in punching (jab, jab, jab, jab, straight right )
- an over reliance on being able to tie up and lean on his usually smaller opponents
- AND a complete lack of any inside game . . .

means that your post is very wide of the mark.

Wlad has NEVER fought anyone anywhere near the level of Lennox Lewis. All of Wlad's usually advantages (height, reach and strength) would have been negated against Lennox, meaning Wlad can't out jab Lewis and keep him at a distance where he can't be hit, therefore he won't commit to his right hand anywhere near often enough to keept Lennox thinking, and he won't be able to bully him with his clinches and leaning.

Lewis would not have any problem landing on Wlad, and when he does Wlad would go down or into his shell. Lennox wins and wins big.

Ok, I cringed reading that.

Lewis was in worse physical condition than Vitali atsch

Whatn planet are you people from? What part of that 6th round actually makes you think that Vitali's eye would not have fallen out of its socket, let alone he would stop Lennox who has already taken Vitali's best?

**** me . . .

 

This is the end of the 6th round

Please explain to me how Vitali was in better shape than Lewis, considering he did nothing but hold and fall all over the place for 20 seconds, this is the last peice of action on the fight, and Vitali did not seem in such great condition to me
