    "No way man, im happily retired, got other interests, a family and plenty of money, you ll never see me back!"

    Lennox Lewis is a classy man, I think deep down he'd like to come back but he knows he has accomplished everything he needed to.

    Lennox Lewis already tapped that ass. He doesn't need to come back.

    lewis is a great person full of class, asking him to come back is like asking him to lose. He's living the good life now and he deserve it after all the fights he gave us fans

    Lennox is a smart guy, he proved everything he had to prove, he never did anything 'stupid', he will never have to work again. And on top of all that he is a true professional decent guy.

    Why can't most fighters be like this?
