    I'm getting the sense that this is less a "who would win?" and more of a "How would this play out?" type of H2H thread.

    Yes, you could say that.

    It would probably be the worst matchup ever... so I guess I have SOMETHING to be proud of, for thinking of it.

    I can see this happening to a pre Steward Lennox,but not after Manny took him over.

    I disagree... the Mercer fight was competative but i only gave Ray rounds 1 and 3 and that's mainly due to Lennox being lazy with his jab in the early rounds

    Nobody in the history of the HW division beats LL 'easily'.

    I agree with this.

    A focused Lennox is a handful for anybody.

    his weak chin would be a key factor against big punchers

    true.. but young took shots from shavers and foreman so he might take the shots from lewis, young was intelligent, a great boxer in his prime, very underrated
