    lennox lewis, at his peak, was very skilled. he used his height very well but also had a devastating right hand and wasn't afraid to use it often. he also fought during a very good 90's era and emerged king. he had some great battles and despite thoughts that he was somewhat of a prima donna, showed his heart on many occasions, and had the mental fortitude to avenge his losses. how is he overrated?

    Ducked Bowe, Ducked prime Tyson, ducked Wlad, Ducked rematch with vitale, ducked ruiz, ducked Byrd, ducked homes, ducked Forman got kod by Rahman, got kod by McCall was put on ***** street by Bruno and got lucky.

    He doesn't even crack the top 50 hws. Happy now?

    Should have just titled it "Are you a Klitschko fan?" you would get the same outcome.

    Anyone without an agenda knows Lennox is not overrated.

    Lol. I'm a Klitschko fan and of course TS is a dumbass, he sounds more like a butthurt Tyson fan than a Klitschko fan.

    Ducked Tyson, Holyfield, Tucker and hid in England until they were all shot. He has not even one good win on his resume. Vitali was beating him until Lennox got a lucky break.

    In 1998 when Sanders sent wannabee Bobby Czyz into retirement he was in talks with Lewis, but instead ended up signing on to be part of Lewis' team.

    Then he was beaten by Rahman, who went on to KO Lewis. Sanders worked his way back into contention(halfheartedly) and then KTFO Wlad and became Lewis mandatory.

    Lewis, knowing that Sanders had lighting fast hands and the power of Ernie Shavers, paid Sanders almost 250K to get out of a fight with him, more than he would have made to fight him.

    Of course many call this duck a smart business decision since Lewis instead fought Tyson and earned almost 2 million more than had he fought Sanders to unify, but Tyson could've waited 3 mos, and Lewis, himself, along with Manny Steward ADMITTED that Sanders was a fighter that Lennox could NOT beat.

    Looks like a duck. Walks like a duck. Quacks like a duck. Hell, I don't know what else to call it.:-(
