Usyk would destroy Prime Lennox Lewis

No, Lewis is not the only one whose power is a factor here, especially during the second half of the fight when he's fatigued and is blowing out of his ass like never before.

They're not ''irrelevant points.'' They're totally relevant.

Yes, Lewis' power is more of a factor but the guy who has never been KO'd, let alone x 3 or one punch ironed out in the midst of their prime x 2, is not the one with the chin issues here. AJ, Hrgovic, and Miller are all giants but none of them could legitimately floor Dubois, let alone knock him out x 2 which the much smaller Usyk did

McCall did not always look like that he was literally crying during his ring walk and was in no mental state to be fighting that night

And there's no need to be rude

 

You keep telling me I'm bringing up irrelevant points which are totally relevant and now I'm not being consistent

What part about Lewis is the one with chin issues here not Usyk don't you understand?

Again, contrary to what you said not what I said, Lewis is not the only one whose power is a factor here and the reason I cite the second half of the fight is because that's when Usyk's power would obviously become more a factor. I've said Usyk would likely outbox Lewis and win on points but I also believe he's capable of stopping him, which if it were to happen would be most likely in the second half of the fight

MCCALL IS SENT TO MENTAL HOSPITAL WIFE'S CUSTODY ORDER PUTS BOXER AWAY
Former heavyweight champ Oliver McCall is said to be a ``present and imminent danger'' to everyone.

Former world heavyweight boxing champion Oliver McCall was ordered to a mental hospital after his wife took out an emergency custody order against him.

Documents released Tuesday said McCall ``presents an imminent danger to [him]self or others as a result of mental illness or is so seriously mentally ill as to be substantially unable to care for [him]self.''

McCall, of Collinsville, was picked up in Martinsville on Saturday after his wife took out an emergency custody order against him, police said.

McCall was evaluated by a mental health expert, who testified at a detention hearing Saturday night that McCall was mentally ill and in need of hospitalization. He was sent to the Southern Virginia Mental Health Institute in Danville, documents show.

An involuntary commitment hearing is planned to determine whether he should continue to be held for further observation and evaluation.

McCall was placed on 18 months probation in December after pleading guilty to possession of marijuana and cocaine in Cook County, Ill. He was also arrested in Winston-Salem, N.C., in early April 1996, and charged with marijuana possession.

McCall spent time at a North Carolina drug rehabilitation center in August. At the time his manager, Jimmy Adams, said McCall was being treated for marijuana and cocaine abuse.

``Drugs took over his life, and now he's trying to take his life back,'' Adams said in August.

McCall won the World Boxing Council heavyweight title in 1994 with a second-round knockout of England's Lennox Lewis. After a successful title defense against Larry Holmes in April 1995, he lost to Frank Bruno in September 1995.

In February, McCall broke into tears during a WBC heavyweight title fight with Lewis. His $3,075,500 purse from the fight is still being held in escrow in a New Jersey bank pending an investigation into why he stopped throwing punches and defending himself in the fourth round of the fight.

After the fourth round he stood and cried in his corner. The referee stopped the fight 55 seconds into the fifth round.

 

I know Lewis was knocked out twice as a pro and I don't need to clarify something I already made abundantly clear

Who would I favour out of Lewis vs Greedy Belly? Probably Lewis but Greedy Belly would pose him serious problems at his best

Yes, both Usyk and Lewis are great fighters and it wouldn't be an easy fight for either. If it was a relatively easy night's work for one of them I suspect it would be so for Usyk due to Lewis not being able to deal with his speed and constant movement

 

So... are you saying that for certain that Usyk wouldn't win several rounds off of and possibly KO Lewis, which would qualify as destroying an opponent?
