Yeah but what about the great unbeaten championship run.... Lewis got taken out by McCall and Rahman.... Who took Joe out? Answer: Nobody The greatest UK fighter of all time? Answer: Probably
:roll: I'm not going to go over all this again, but... Lennox has two loses on his record because he fought better fighters, in a better division, over a longer period of time. Lewis could have won a WBO title, stayed at home and fought tomato cans, he could have retired unbeaten and claimed he was great, no one would have believed that boast, just like no one should believe Calzaghe's claims to greatness. Being the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world is more of an achivement than being the dominant force in a crap division and really facing no opponent of any consequence until the end of your career. Lennox is clearly above Calzaghe IMO, and Wilde is clearly above both of 'em.
