Holmes 87 vs. Lewis 2003

Forget it. :nono

 

I agree. Anything over 245 for Lewis was too heavy for me. 240-245lbs would be his ideal weight.

 

not, his natural weight was 224-230 pounds, he was much faster, but later he trained with weights

26 years old lewis weighed 221 pounds against mike weaver, 230 pounds against tyrell biggs,
27 years old lewis weighed 227 pounds against ruddock,230 against dereck williams
28 years old lewis weighed 235 against tucker and 229 against bruno.
25 years old lewis weighed 224 pounds against occasio

lennox lewis weighed +240 pounds in his 30s, maybe some idiot will tell me that he was in his prime in his late 30s and not in his 20s

 

you can´t compare holmes92 with holmes88, holmes 88 was a heavybag, he didn´t nothing during almost 2 years . holmes92 was old but trained.

 

Lewis of 2003 beats Holmes of 1987.

 

Any version of Lewis would always beat any version of Holmes for me. Simply because they are both similar in many ways, and both intelligent boxers, but Lewis has size and power too.

 

I think prime for prime Lewis beats Holmes too.

But it's like 55/45... almost a pick 'em for me.

 

Yeah point taken, i too would never write Holmes off against anyone. Lewis for me was the more complete fighter.
If they fought five times Holmes could win a couple maybe. A great h/weight boxing match up this would be.

 

prime vs prime holmes wins , no doubt in my mind, he is just better(heart,chin,stamina,better jab,faster)
