    My top 3 all time:

    1.) Marciano
    2.) Calzaghe
    3.) Mayweather

    Genius matchmaking to a T... its close between Mayweather and Calzaghe, but since Calzaghe is retired he takes the prize.

    Of the young guns I expect to see Broner cherrypick down the line in his career. Al Haymon is on his way to being the most successful promoter of all time. He can hype of fights, get crazy PPV sales and sleep soundly knowing his man will win... For Alvarez contrarily, I expect to see Golden Boy cash out on him within the next 3-4 years.

    What an utter bull**** post :fire

    1...Lennox Claudius Lewis was the best World Heavyweight Champion since ALI

    2... Lennox had Mike Tyson's number since they sparred as kids with Cus D'mato. It was King & Tyson that ducked Lewis

    3... Bowe did everything humanly possible to avoid having to fight Lennox & get his ass kicked AGAIN!!!!!!!!

    4... Name me another world champion that agreed to take on his #1 mandatory in a title match at 10 days notice?? Lennox was barely 80% ready. He STILL beat the crap out of Vitali Klitchko though

    Sit down & pay attention sonny ...

    Youre reading bull**** media trash & believing it I was right there thoughout Lennox career. I know what happened

    Tyson was the one ducked Lewis. Tyson knew he could never beat Lennox from the time they were kids. Tyson finally took the fight coz he was broke.

    Lennox kicked Holyfield's ass TWICE!!!! After the first fight the most suprised person at the diabolical draw dec was HOLYFIELD He'd already conceded defeat & congratulated Lennox. The way Lewis was robbed in that fight rivalled any robbery Jesse James pulled

    Lennox ducked no one PERIOD!!!!!!!!!

    I.B.F. Will Give Its Heavyweight Title Belt to Lewis

    By TIMOTHY W. SMITH

    November 16, 1999

    Among the fighters who will be lining up for a shot at Lewis in the next year are David Tua, No. 1 in the I.B.F.; John Ruiz, No. 1 in the W.B.C.; Michael Grant, No. 2 in the W.B.C

    Lennox wants to fight Michael Grant,'' Eliades said. I don't think Grant is that good. He's strong, but he's not very clever.''

    Eliades takes aim at Lewis fall guys

    David Smith

    18 January 2001

    According to Lewis, the next man sharing a square of canvas with him will be either Nigerian David Izon or Hasim Rahman

    According to the latest rankings, neither Izon nor Rahman are considered good enough to warrant a place among their top-10heavyweights

    Like Rahman, former policeman Izon, 32, lost to Tua. He was also easily beaten by Michael Grant

    Lennox Lewis has rejected plans for a December fight against the American southpaw Chris Byrd


    Showtime's principal difficulty now is in finding a name opponent they are relatively certain the fading Tyson can still beat


    Whoever Tyson defeats, Lewis will now view the old champion as a safe opponent

    Lewis wants revenge on drunken druggie Oliver


    McCall has hardly been seen in public since he entered a drugs rehabilitation clinic in North Carolina last Autumn to fight cocaine and marijuana problems.

    When he did surface, he was promptly arrested for slinging a Christmas tree across a hotel foyer in Nashville

    Lewis says: "I have no doubts about beating McCall this time
