The last bit hurts me but is sadly very true. I was watching Bowe-Holyfield 3 the other day and I couldn’t believe how impressive Holyfield’s...
Leonard Duran Mayweather Holyfield RJJ
It was a good fight but overrated. I didn’t feel like Mugabi was winning enough rounds at all for it to be that great a fight but the judges and a...
A green Lewis? Lol Bowe was the novice there. Lewis was what 23 in the olympics. Bowe completely outboxed him and looked much the superior talent....
He walked down Holyfield without moving back. Even Foreman couldn’t do that.

Vitali doesn’t have a chance. Awful styles match up.
There are some good points here. But I don’t think it applies to LL. My whole thing is with Lewis, is how is it that a guy who wasn’t really...
Quite simply, I feel like all the greats of the sport have a certain X-Factor that Lewis lacked. They apply themselves with a grit and intensity...

Btw, why is it that Lewis gets ranked so much higher over the main contemporaries of his own era (Tyson, Bowe and Holyfield) but couldn’t actually...
I think he receives a generous shake in lots of H2H matchups and is a unanimous top 10 HW great for many people so there are strong grounds for...
I too am in the minority who think Bowe was better than Lewis. Simply more going for him as a fighter. Lewis lacked X-factor and doesn’t convince...
For the record I think Lewis was a really good fighter but he is so inexplicably overrated by so many fans nowadays it’s not even funny.
