Larry Holmes vs Lennox Lewis prime 4 prime?

this would be a great technical fight, one for the purist. a jab fest i'm going with LL by decision.

 

Holmes by decision, but only if he gives the performance of his life.

 

with lennox ******-arms reach holmes would have problems landing the jab like in other bouts. lennox is physically much bigger and stronger too, so i say lennox ud.

 

i seriously think that bernard dunne could have knocked out larry holmes prime four prime

 

Lewis by UD. I think Holmes suffers a KD.

 

LENNOX by SD or maybe a 11th rd tko or ref stoppage. yes it is possible lennox although i realy never cared for him is underrated

 

Lewis.

 

I like Holmes Lennox better puncher but Holmes better chin. Holmes late stoppage or close but ud

 

holmes beats lewis, lennox jab was his bread and butter but larry jab dominates

not sure about dunne holmes, could be close:nut

 

Lewis by KO, this one is easy.

 

Lennox by ko.

Better power, better jab, better footwork, better speed, etc....better in all areas.

 

you didnt even need to write an answer your avatar gives it away

 

Flip a coin. Holmes has the better jab and is faster, but Lewis is bigger and has much more power...

i bet you've never even heard of larry holmes

 

If you watch Mercer v Lewis and Klitschko v Lewis Lewis struggled because he was outjabbed by both fighters. Even in his fight with Tyson, Lewis was outjabbed in the first round and he looked all out of sorts.

Now, Larry Holmes has probably the best jab in heavyweight history, he was durable, he has never been blown away, except for Tyson and he had a great boxing brain.

I could see Lewis coming out and winning the first two runds but by the third Holmes would have got his jab working. Apart from landing his own hard shots Holmes would box smart and not let Lewis dictate the pace.

12rds:- Holmes UD in a close but clear fight.

15rds:- Holmes tko in 14
