"Lennox Lewis would be a threat to any heavyweight in history"

He didn't like Larry. Question answered.

 

Fair play then

Lewis sometimes fought to the level of his competition, see Mercer, but so do most HWs.

McCall and Rahman? Reality check time, he wasn't prime for either.
The fact people keep pointing those out confuses me. I guess I'll point out Spinks and Lyle for Ali, is that fair? Does the encompass who Ali was? No, stupid is it not?

 

Prime Tyson hits his chin and KO's him

Prime Ali dances and clowns this fool all night

Prime Frasier Brutally ****s him up

Prime Foreman.......too scary to think about

Hes already beat Holyfield but personally I rank Vitali Higher than Lewis. I mean he was beating him up until the cut. Never ranked Lewis that highly

 

theres a reason why lewis was ducked by some of the best of his generation, and that's because lennox was that damn good.

 

how the **** can you rank vitali higher? if vitali was that damn good don't you think he should of knocked lewis out when they fought considering lewis was 38, he was at his heaviest of his career, and rusty as ****? yet vitali was still holding on for dear life near the end. plain blank, it's pretty obvious prime to prime, lewis would of beat vitali.

 

The fact that you can't even spell "Frazier" tells us all we need to know about your knowledge of Heavyweight boxing history.

So you rate a guy above Lewis that a) lost to Lewis while he was in his prime and Lewis was finished; and b) has a far inferior record in pretty much every respect? Makes sense.

 

As clear as a sunny day.

 

I agree he would have gave the top heavyweights a good match.

 

Lewis's uppercut would brutalise Frazier.

 

i don't really agree with foreman's list but there is no way Patterson should be on it and Ali should be #2 or #1 IMO

 

What a ****ing ridiculous statement, how many fighters could be called a "threat" to any one in history in any weight division? Hey I'm gonna throw one out there, "Vitali Klitschko could be a threat to any heavyweight in history"

Which Einstein wanna be came up with this quote of the decade?

 

Wrong.

Heavyweights are susceptible to knockouts at any time. Do you really think he'd have taken on Tyson, Klitschko, Morrison, Mercer, Briggs, Rahman, Tua, Ruddock, Bruno etc if he had a chin issue to hide? More to the point, as the video indicates, he took shots off of these sorts of guys no trouble at all.

 

The thread starter is Correct.LL, has all the physical and mental capabilities to beat any fighter in history not named a "Prime" Ali!
