Bob Pastor vs Lennox Lewis

Pastor wasn't competitive in either Louis fight.
Lewis doesn't have much history of being troubled by boxers who scaled in the mid 180's either.

I don't think he would lose any sleep about facing Pastor's power.

 

He was one-shotted by guys who never one-shotted anybody else in their career. Ruddock, Morrison & Tua didn’t strike a blow against him.

Despite the knockdowns Pastor gave a good account of himself in the return fight with Louis. A fighter in nigh every way Lewis’ superior. He clearly would run from Lewis IMOgiven the size disparity, & how well he could fight in spurts up close would be telling & interesting to see. I’ve seen Lewis struggle enough with considerably more ordinary fighters than Pastor.

 

The punches that dropped Lewis would have dropped most.
The reverse is not true,imo.Conn doesn't drop Lewis.
Any of them weigh in the 180's?
Lewis is a top ten all time heavyweight,do you agree?

Do you put Pastor in the top all time 50?

Bottom line, Pastor does not have the power to trouble Lewis.

 

They never one-shotted anybody else. “Would have dropped most?” They dropped none as emphatically as they did Lewis.

You are right that Rahman KO’d two other men with single shots (Toia was falling all over the ring from previous damage & did not really go from one shot). I wonder why I forgot them? One guy had ten fights, of which he’d won three or four? & then there was Gonzalez. Some pedigree for one-shotting an alleged top 10 Heavy of all-time. I don’t trust Lewis’ whiskers it’s as straight forward as that.

Regarding the top 10 Heavy vs top 50, that’s not how H2H match ups necessarily work. Plenty of bog average Heavies & forgettable strap holders would have rocked Marciano’s world, for instance.
