Do Lewis' win over Tyson and Calzaghe's over RJJ hold any credibility?

Bailey,

I said that Joe's win wasn't credible, and I gave you the reasons why.

I never addressed the rest of your post.

But what has hypothetical scenarios involving Joe and Lewis coming out of retirement to fight Ward and Wilder have to do with anything?

 

I read parts of the first 3p, enough to see what's going on.

You get posters making loony claims that Tyson was 50%, Jones was 30% when they fought LL & JC. Then what about the clowns on here that were saying that if Tyson got serious he could "clean out" the HW div. almost up to his pitiful loss to McBride? atsch

B Douglas beat a young Tyson, but LL doesn't to many in this thread :nut
LL is a bit older than MT but Tyson huggers always pull out the Mike was past his prime :| If MTs "magical" prime was so short then he wasn't as great as you think he was :deal
An earlier LL V MT bout would give Tyson an outside chance but Lewis beats Tyson at any age. Seriously some on here are in such denial that the HW torch has long passed away from the US :-(
* * * * *
An earlier JC v RJ would be competitive, could go either way and giving the edge to RJ is reasonable. However many fans always underestimated JC.

 

not Ward to Wilder. Are you stupid, you know what you wrote, don't try and worm out of your failed post.

 

So you are happy for Joe to call you a liar telling you that roy wasn't worth it anymore.

Very well. you lose.

 

Jones is a Glass Jawed Fraud shows why he avoided all those big fights.

 

:good

 

and yet you keep replying. Though to be fair, without ever answering , so
good luck with that then.


Its all good - its better that if you cant answer, then you don't try.

 

yeah...lewis beating tyson who had won the heavyweight title 17 years earlier means EVERYTHING :rofl

and after roy was knocked out 2 times and had several losses at 40 years old...REALLY? it means jack shi.t :deal

 

Tyson was like 10 to 12 years past his best. Jones wasn't that far gone.

 

Only you would come out utter bollocks like that.

I guess Dnany Green is better than Calzaghe and Danny Williams is better than Lewis?

After all, they produced much better results against the same guys

 

Tysons sparring partner knocked out Lewis, so according to your logic, Tyson could do it too?

Lewis is ONE year older than Tyson. Hardly the difference you're trying to make.

Does it really have to be pointed out to you that Tyson was 14 years past his peak when he fought Lewis, who was only a couple of years removed from his peak?

If you actually knew boxing history you'd see that one guy peaked in 86-88 and the other peaked around a decade later.

FFS atsch

 

Neither is particularly credible in my book, but not without value altogether. Although Lewis' win over Tyson is somewhat more credible.

I guess it should be mentioned, and I'm sure it has been, that neither Lewis nor Calzaghe were prime either. Although neither was as nearly done for, nor as far away from their best days and performances as the opponent.
