Nobody in the history of boxing can beat the best version of Lewis. Nobody.

I would pick Ali, Holmes and Louis over Lennox (Peak v Peak). Great small men would do quite (Tyson, Frazier and Holyfield) well as. Big Geoge had the toughness and more importantly Power to take out LL. At there very best I would favour the top three and LL would be fourth H2H all time.

 

Lewis is like Mayweather. A true GOAT who cant be beaten in his prime. Agree with everything OP.

 

:rofl:rofl how do you choose when a guy is true prime or not

 

Evander Holyfield

"Riddick Bowe ducked Lewis to fight me'

'Mike Tyson ducked Lewis to fight me'

"Everyone wanted to fight me instead of Lewis because everyone thought I was the easier fight. I owe it to Lewis to fight him because everyone that ducked him got beat by me..'



As to Frank Bruno
I love big Frank.. but that was a Pre-Prime Lewis and that was Frank's best performance.. Listen to you going all hater

'EVEN FRANK BRUNO WAS BOXING HIS HEAD OFF BEFORE HE GOT KTFO'



Pacquaio was winning the fight before he became Plankquiao too son. rofl

:rofl

 

A series of fights that show your physical peak and boxing elitehood.
Wladimir's prime was in 2000-2003. Wladimir had his best win in 2000 (against Byrd) and he looked amazing with his offensive powers in 2000-2003.

Lewis's prime was from 95-00. You could 'push' him and 'challenge' him during that half decade.. but you can not beat him. Not if you are Ali, not if you are Tyson not if you are Louis.


If Lewis had fought Wlad in 2000. That would be Prime vs Prime. Wladimir was in his full prime against Sanders.

 

I always say peak LL is probably the best hW (head to head) of all time.

 

Ali,Foreman,Prime Holyfield,Prime Tyson,Prime Bowe,Current Wlad has a shot.

 

Wait Bowe,the best heavyweight contender ducked Lewis (Ko'd by McCall) to fight Holyfield who was a better fighter than Lewis?

Whatever. No one ducked Lewis. He was ****.

Bowe's team offered 12 million to fight Lewis and Lewis chose to fight HIV positive Tommy Morrison instead.

 

Lennox Lewis had a great jab? LOL!

Larry Holmes: “Today if I was heavyweight champion of the world I think I’d reign for more than 7 years, I’d probably reign for 10-15 years!”

"...No, Lennox Lewis doesn’t have no jab! I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to cut you off, but Lennox Lewis don’t have no jab. He ain’t never had a jab. He got Emanuel Steward and Emanuel Steward was trying to teach him how to jab. He don’t have no jab! Lennox Lewis don’t have no jab, he has no heart, but if he gets started on you he’s got the biggest heart in the world and he’s going to kill you. But I have seen the dog come out of Lennox Lewis a couple of times when he fought, and I don’t think he had it. And he never had the jab! So don’t even put him in there and talk about his jab because he ain’t never had a jab..."-Larry Holmes

 

Prime Foreman
Any Larry Holmes
Ali

Prime Tyson via 10 second KO guaranteed

And yes the best Bowe was better than the best Lewis.

 

Knocked out twice. Out cold once.

 

Like Mayweather???? Not a chance.

 

So you are using Tua and Golota as measuring sticks to who Lewis would match up against Foreman?

hahaha.

 

A young Tyson gets inside and gets Lewis out early. Liston beats him at his own game, jab followed with a long right hand. Ali just sticks and moves all night, doesn't take a serious shot in return and if he does he eats it and keeps on going. I would pick a prime Tua or Ike to beat him, and Foreman would probably overwhelm him. Lewis is up there, but he's not the GOAT.

 

Funny, did Lewis not get KO'd TWICE. **** Off ******!
