This. It's a bit of a weird question really. I don't think he 'avoided ' Lewis.... He wanted to make history by winning a HW belt and picked a guy...
In fairness, I don't think anyone is claiming he was ever THE man at heavyweight? It was obvious why he chose Ruiz and not Lennox Lewis. However,...
I see Hide starting well but eventually succumbing to Rocky's power and pressure.

Hopkins. Never really liked him back in the day, although I did appreciate his wins and his longevity. But in the last few years I really respect...

Wilder. Neilson was never really even viewed as a decent contender. Sure he had some good wins on paper - but those 'big ' names were waay past...
