    He's in the discussion.

    Very good resume, big, skilled head to head nightmare for most.

    He did have two losses, but both were avenged, in the case of rahman in devastating fashion.

    Top 5 resume

    Top 3 HTH.

    No, only a clueless mug that knows nothing about boxing would say such nonsense.

    His fights against McCall, Rahman, and Vitali really discredit any discussion of #1 of all time.

    I guess Ali is eliminated too eh? Afterall he lost to 7 fight novice Spinks and debatable he lost all 3 to Norton.

    Tyson is one of Lewis's best wins? It is obvious this quote is full of fail.

    How? Lennox never was outboxed before that night and he almost was down a couple times and struggled to win rounds. It wasn't a good night for Lewis, he looked beatable for the first time in his career and not by a lucky punch.

    He's in the discussion. #6 for me.

    Don't forget that he beat a past-his-best Holyfield, a shot Tyson and that his win over Vitali Klitschko was very lucky.

    Lewis still has wins over Ruddock, Golota, Tua, Briggs, etc. Great resume.
