    Top 15 ATG's don't quit the day before they are due to be stripped after eight months of mincing about. A top 15 ATG is a fighting man with pride and integrity, two things Lewis lacks.

    LOL **** off little dempsey is going to beat Lewis hahaha, he beat up a big guy in willard granted but thats a diff level to lewis.
    Hmmm the great unbeatable (joking obviously) shavers all he had was a punch, lyle, norton please what the **** are you basing it on :patsch

    Yes lewis was ko'd by rahman out of a shape at altitude and what happened in the rematch, are you ignorant :patsch

    Beat by mccall, obviously you realised he wasn't actualy knocked out but was up on his feet ready to go on seriously you need to watch fights and not read boxrec lol.

    Holmes has a good chance but his best wins are norton and a really ****ed up ali

    Lyle now i know your taking the ****

    Seriously you must have a big agenda against Lewis or are pretty supid.

    Lewis isn't a top 15 all-time boxer. At heavyweight, he ranks in the top 5 I think but without weight restrictions, he's probably around 30-40.

    The only heavyweight I have inside the top 15 is Ali, who would be in the top 6 or 7 probably.

    Ali was knocked out by Henry Cooper, FACT!!!!!. Heavyweights throw heavyweight punches and anyone can get caught. Joe Bugner won 4 of the 10 rounds vs Frazier. Atlas always never gives any brit or euro fighter a fair shake, his an idiot who likes the sound of his own voice.

    Obviously English isn't your first language so ill explain it again :patsch

    Lewis was not knocked out by olly, he was in fact stopped on his feet hence he was not knocked out :patsch He was stopped rightly or wrongly but he lost and i and know one else have a problem with that.

    Its all you klit ball swingers that can't except defeats lets face it vitali has fought one good fighter in his whole career and lost 2 avenged none.

    Lewis defeated by way of rematch every man he ever faced, smashed your mans face up and retired as the universally recognized undisputed heavyweight champ.

    Lets look at the excuses made up by you and your mates.....

    Vaseline caused wlad to lose to brewster.

    Vitali was hit in the eye by a childs toy, this cut was reopened by lewis..

    Wlad was poisoned

    Blood sugar levels were wrong :yep

    Lewis hair caused the cuts :patsch

    Thimb in the eye yet you can clearly see the punch, with a twist on the end cause the cut or do they not show that in germany for some kind of legal reasons :lol:

    there is always an excuse for the klits, i make no excuses why a fighter wins or loses thats the result get on deal with it. Vitali klitschko pizza face, fought well for 3 rounds but got bettered end of story.

    The sooner you can deal with it, the sooner you can move on

    Tko 6 :good as tko 2 for mccall:good

    Not as if Lewis didnt go on to have a good career after his 2 losses if anything he got better from them.

    And Foreman shouldnt have lost to 19 losses Jimmy young.

    Foreman was too mentally weak to get in the ring with the men who beat him, He knows first hand how difficult it is, Thats why hes always fawning over Lennox for avenging defeats and calling him the greatest ever.
    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jV5AMRL5-Hc[/ame]

    You mention Mccalls assault on a police vehicle and conclude this makes him less threatening? lol. Watch the 2nd round of the rematch where Mcall throws the same KO combination he did in the first fight, even faster and more aggressive, but fails! He actually tries it 3 times in round 2 and Lennox negated him.

    The losses only hurt if Lennox lacked the skill or ability to beat said fighters, but Lennox erased doubt by avenging them. We dont know if Foreman could beat Jimmy Young, or if Dempsey/Jeffries could beat an elite black fighter. We can only speculate since these things never occurred.

    Ali was knocked out by Cooper as in a loss on the Ali record?
    No that's what we call a lie. Ali beat Cooper twice by TKO.
    Ali was knocked down not out you idiot.

    Although Big George admires Lewis,George himself said he would whack out Lewis in only 2 rounds. Mccall was in drug and alcohol rehab and under house arrest which is why Lewis fought him then. Lewis knew it and his camp knew it and so did many of the journalists of the time.

    Q+A: George Foreman

    With the June 8 Mike Tyson-Lennox Lewis bout coming up, we grilled HBO boxing announcer George Foreman

    By Richard Deitsch

    SI: Do you think Muhammad Ali owns a George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine?
    Foreman: Most certainly. I've sent him more than one.

    SI: You've been married five times. Would you recommend that course to all men?
    Foreman: No. Once is enough -- and take your time. You're only ready for marriage after you hit 30.

    SI: What's your pick for Tyson-Lewis?
    Foreman: If Tyson comes in at 222 pounds or under, I give him the edge. I'll take him in a knockout. Three rounds.

    SI:

    If a drug addict and a nobody can beat Lewis,yes Dempsey,Shavers and Lyle could do it as well. Ron Lyle was better than Rahman ever was. Shavers too. And little Dempsey KO'd huge guys all of the time as did Joe Louis.
    And you can make excuses that Lewis was up for the count but the Ref stopped it and Lewis lost to drug addict Oliver Mccall. Then Lewis waited for Mccall to deteriorate for 3 years before the rematch.
    And then Lewis gets one punch KO'd by Rahman. That time Lewis didn't do anything except get counted out.

    Mccall couldve fcked a goat the night before. He still came in terrific shape with 237 lbs of cut lean muscle mass. His performance was a mirror of the 1994 fight first 2 rounds, except Lewis wasnt going down.

    Probably number 2 behind Ali
