    Lennox ko’s him easily. Literally no need to even go in depth on why anyone with a decent set of eyes who knows anything about boxing understands this.

    Lewis would get up from the knockout by Rahman, wipe off his gloves, then KO AJ in the same ring three minutes later.

    FFS why did I come in here?

    AJ has better left hook and comparable power in the right hand, but that's it. Lewis was more fluid, had better reflexes and he was millions times better in clinching/holding - part of boxing in which AJ looks like complete novice. AJ is improving, yes, but I don't think there is anybody in boxing who could improve him as much as Steward did with Lewis.

    Pre-Emmanuel Lewis stops Joshua in 8.

    I don't think Joshua would make it 6 against Steward-era Lewis.

    Wilder at this point is like a pre-Steward Lewis with an even more powerful right hand. Thus, it would probably take him longer to land flush (judging by Joshua's very good boxing performance against Ruiz). Sooner or later Joshua falls to Wilder, just like he would Lewis.

    Just my opinion.

    AJ didn`t leave his head in one place after punching aty Ruiz like he did in their first clash, Lewis was slower against Tua by comparison, Golota would have been destroyed by AJ, different class altogether, no comparison.

    Lewis was awful before he hooke up with Steward, he was off balance a lot against a faded Tucker and the plodding Bruno.

    using 2 guys that lost to lewis is not argument that supports you, just saying.

    its a NEGATIVE argument. just saying.

    That means you are proving the OP's point over yours. Just saying.

    most people on here do not write a post with the intent of destroying their own post. Just saying.

    AJ would have looked better than Lewis did v Mavrovic. Lewis leaned back in a straight line too much when punched at, that`s a no no against AJ who has an 82 inch reach and a fast straight right hand.
