Prime Mike Tyson vs prime Lennox Lewis ?

You say the same thing in every thread

Was Larry Holmes a great fighter yes or no?

 

I think Tyson beats Lewis.

Look at how scared and nervous Lewis was against Tyson in 2002, Manny was swearing and shouting at Lewis to take Tyson out.

Do you really think hes going to fight any braver against the tyson of the Berbick fight?

I dont think so.

Lennox was no different to any of the other guys tyson was beating, other than, Lewis had perfected, the clinch, lean, hug technique. That wont work against a younger more energetic Tyson. Unless lewi just wants to survive the 12 rounds. I think Lewis has enough savvy to last the distance, he wont get knocked out as hed always take a guy like Tyson seriously. However lewis always was a 'safety first' fighter, i dotn think a prime tyson would allow to Lennox to do much else, other than survive, which is what his other opponents had to resort to. Those that tried to engage him were Kod pretty early, Berbick, Tubbs etc.

 

Seems that the fact Lewis already beated Tyson in the amateurs doesn't count to the eyes of boxing specialists...

 

Do you know why manny was shouting? Because the referee already deducted a point with no reason to Lewis, and he could as well have disqualified him with another point deduction; Lewis was simply toying with Tyson, he didn't even seem worried.... after all, if a stiff like Smith could go 12 rounds against a "prime" (lol) Tyson....

 

Thats a stupid argument. Tyrell Biggs beat both Lewis and Tyson in the amateurs but got destroyed by them in the pro's.

 

You haven't a clue, google warrior......Smith refused to box Tyson and held on to him all night long..... He would of been knocked out if he decided to let go and box. He barely landed a glove on Mike.

 

Hmmm, lewis and tyson never fought in the ams, they sparred a few rounds to wich no one truely knows what really happened but by all accounts they both had there moments. So lewis never "beated" him in the ams.
Also try watching the smith fight and lewis fight again. Smith held on for dear life and really should have got dq'd and lewis held and clinched ALOT. Not holding for dear life i woulnt say but certainly didnt want to risk anything until he knew tyson was exhausted and would fall down.
So to say lewis would beat him easy is ******ed.

Theres no way to know who would win but what i do know is with tuson at his best the fight would have gone ALOT differently.

 

your full of ****.

Watch the HBO documentary, Lewis himself admitted what and why Manny was shouting.

 

First of all they never fought in the amateurs

Secondly amateurs dont mean ****

Thirdly Razor Ruddock beat Lewis in the amateurs and Henry Tillman beat Tyson

 

Tyson KO in round 1
