    Haye would get stopped, but he wouldn't get KO'd first round.

    Those Haye fans seems to be ridicoulous

    With Lewis only Vitali can give a close figth(as he did in the past) from current HW and not Vitali from Johnson but Arreola

    One big right hand and forget it. Haye would last 2 rounds at best.

    Haye's power is for real, make no mistake. But Lewis is just so much better than him. The puncher's chance is always something to make it interesting, but nar. Lennox by ko most definitely.

    it would be competitive, but if Lewis won't ko or be able to catch Haye his jab would give Haye all sorts of problems and should be able to outbox Haye. even if Haye would be able to destroy the Klits, a prime Lewis was still a tad faster and had a more potent right hand in his prime.

    Lennox Lewis is one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.

    Thing is, if Haye tried to be evasive as he was against Valuev, Lennox would just corner him and unload, game over. Haye's a very good heavyweight but Lewis is as bad as it gets for him, no arguement whatsoever here.

    Lennox by TKO in the 8-9 rounds tops...Lennox was a hell of a fighter and he had the killer instinct that some Heavyweights of today lack...Dont get me wrong but Haye has some attributes to frustrate Lennox but overall, I think Lennox jab and moster right hand would be Haye's downfall...Haye tends to get cute sometimes by dropping his hands and he will pay for it dearly if he fights a guy like Lennox.

    They're on different levels, i feel no need to analyse the fight. Haye isn't half the boxer on the outside that Lennox is. He did it once against Valuev and it wasn't enough to convince he me he is a versatile fighter at the highest level, the fight was ultra close, and Haye probably sealed the win for me by reverting to type as a puncher at the end. Haye's natural style is all action, and his power is for real, that's why the fight is exciting, a puncher's chance is a puncher's chance. But Lennox is one of the best we've had.

    I like David Haye, i've met him and had a photo taken with him. Lennox Lewis would beat him, guaranteed.

    You bring up a good point....

    "Lennox Lewis right now vs current David Haye"

    This is worth debating.

    Nice story i hadnt heard it, But yeah Lewis was a lot better then tyson, Tyson lives on his reputation more then he ever did on what he accomplished in the ring.
