    Lewis was sparked out by much less powerful guys than George.

    Also, George has a head like an anvil, so no way Lennox could KO him.

    People that write that Lennox Lewis is the goat at heavyweight need their ****ing heads examined.He was terrific due to his size and talent,but here are the ****ing facts that NOBODY-not even Lewis' biggest nutsuckers- can deny:close to prime Lewis was outjabbed(and pushed to the limit.Some say Lewis lost that one)by slower and smaller Ray Mercer,who was beaten far more convincingly by waaaaay past it Larry Holmes.Lennox was also stopped by C+ level Oliver McCall and ktfo by C+ Hasim Rachman,but he's going to stand up to George Foreman????:lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Foreman by KO2 easy. Cautious shaky chin Lewis against a power punching monster with a solid chin and no fear...is a bad match up for Lennox.

    Lewis was not stronger than Foreman. He did not have a better chin then Foreman and George had a good jab too.
    Lewis was more cautious and scared to exchange. Foreman would have an easy night in my opinion.

    I'll go with Foreman on this one, Foreman would cut off the ring if Lewis tried to box. Foreman took a great punch Young and Ali put a tired Foreman down more from exhausion than punching power. I dont think lewis would stand up to the punching power.
     
  10. You are a ******

    first off it says 1992 Lennox

    if Prime Foreman can not even beat 1992 lennox he is pathetic.

    1992 Lewis was a baby lion.

    I still Pick 1992 Baby Lion Lewis to ko Prime Foreman

    Prime Lewis will embarrass Foreman you hater

    Cautious ?

    This cautious?

    Prime Lewis destroys Super Heavyweights when he feels that they are dangerous.


    Prime Lewis will make Prime Foreman his ****ing dog


    even 1992 baby lion lewis will give Prime Foreman Hell

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:.Prime Lewis has oodles of problems with Mercer,whom past it Larry Holmes beat far more convicingly.He also got stopped by McCall and blown out by Rahman(2 C level heavies,but he's going to beat Foreman?Highly unlikely.:lol:Let me guess.You're English,right?

    You mean the Lewis that was KO'd cold TWICE by B-level fighters?

    The guy that went life and death with a fat Ray Mercer and fought to a draw?

    Nah

    Oh Ok then sweetheart. Maybe George Foreman could wait until Lewis was in his prime and KO him easy like Hasim Rahman did.

    If Lewis can avoid Georges right hand he wins a decision, if he can't he gets sparked.
