    Lennox is just a hater. AJ lives in his head rent free

    Here we go the HATER!! tag comes up again. Why is it when
    anyone disagrees with anothers opinion of a fighter they get labeled a hater?? I have never seen Lennox comment on anything about AJ that wasnt warranted I have never seen him diss or name call AJ ever.
    As for Lennox making excuses after fights cast your minds back to AJ/ Ruiz. I think I have seen every excuse under the sun from AJ as to why he got his clock cleaned by Ruiz except "I was beaten by the better man on the night" which was the truth.
    Anyone that has met & knows Lennox knows he is one of the nicest guy in the game

    I've met Lennox last year at the WBC congress. He is indeed a very nice guy, when it's not about boxing.

    Funnily, he sounds completely opposite when he discusses boxing (when Lennox makes excuses of his two losses or talks about other successful boxers). He sounds like an insecure person, which is strange considering his achievements in boxing

    Usually when a fighter is a beast in the ring he has to put empathy aside, or better yet have little or none to begin with. AJ is expecting a kind of understanding and concern that Lennox is unwilling or unable to offer him.

    Lennox was a great fighter but he's always been a bit of a baffoon, he's got a stupid voice, prime Mike would've taken his head off, his commentary for PBC is atrocious and he's been taking little digs at AJ for quite a while now and if someone keeps taking digs at you you're perfectly within your right to fire back with some of your own.

    Larry Holmes can fully attest to this.

    Even Mike Tyson, in his rage-filled and drug-addled state during the fraught buildup to their fight, correctly identified Lennox Lewis as pompous and aloof.

    Lennox seems to be the type of person who will happily take shots at people, but then acts personally affronted when those people then fire back at him.

    Story? What crap you talking here? There is no story, Lewis threw some mud at aj and AJ called him a clown, cool story over.

    I reckon Joshua would be better not saying anything to be honest.
    As a Lennox fan I have to say that Lennox is a bad nob.You get the feeling he's the type of guy who has to be right all the time.
