...Often gets bashed for being boring, but I dont see it. Lewis Vs Briggs was one hell of a fight, very exciting. Also Blowouts like Ruddock, and Golota, and wars like vs Mercer. And some of the best knockouts you will ever see. Ever. I just enjoy his style really. Nice rhythmic skillset, but every punch like a hammer blow, and a HUUUGE right hand just around the corner. And the fact he could be starched any minute. I just really enjoy watching him, all his fights really....
Agreed. I just loved watching Lewis jab jab jab, left hook, followed by one of the most pretty and deadliest Right crosses ever thrown. His entire weight is shifted from is back leg to his front, twist his hips and "DOWN the opponent goes".
i liked watching him fight wasnt necessarily a fan but he was a great fighter his uppercut and right hand were b-e-a-utiful
i agree with that i always looked forward to an exciting fight with lennox. There was always a chance he would get KTFO as well as the other guy.
Lennox Lewis was outstanding. I think many of his detractors are disgruntled fans who at some point or another backed a horse that was levelled by him.
fact is lewis perfected his craft and didnt just outpoint the guys he beat by ud he left his mark on them , the 1s he stopped were brutal knockouts not calzaghe manfredo stoppages imo lewis could in a best of 3 beat any heavy
I think Lewis is the best Heavyweight Ive seen in my time. He has a impressive resume and has beat everyone he has been in the ring with. I would have love to see what would have happened with a pre **** Tyson. Still the best Ive watched live. Not saying the best ever, just the ones Ive watched live.
Great puncher with an OK chin? Sounds really dull doesn't it. He is also a great boxer. Anyone who finds Lennox boring should take up ball room dancing.
IMO, Lennox's jab was his sickest weapon. Then it naturally set up the other massive shots, but the jab was one of the deadliest I can think of.
Oh yeah, them good old days when Briggs could move around and even punch a bit! BTW - Lennox wasn´t boring all the time.
Some of the best blows he landed on Sultan were headbutts. I think in the second round I thought he landed a counter right. It was actually a counter headbutt.
