Lennox Lewis calls Usyk a question mark

Anyone actually read Lennox's actual Tweet?

Actually nothing like what the OP is insulating...

 

Surely, Usyk will have a difficult time at the HWD, but Holyfield was the Cruizerweight World Champion who successfully launched his campaigns at the highest division. Usyk will have to follow Holyfield's foot step

 

You’re jumping to some pretty extreme conclusions without even reading the article in the OP. Lewis said nothing about Botha, it was the author of the article who made the comparison. This is all Lennox said:

By all accounts LL is an absolute gentleman, not to mention of the greatest fighters of all time, you should show the man respect instead of insulting him over something he never even said. ‘It saddens you to see’... i mean seriously, listen to yourself.

 

I know. Pathetic isn’t it? The Usyk fan rallied the troops!

 

It’s something that they’ve made up over the years.

 

It's fair to say as Witherspoon was never going to win the fight, but it was a great start by Usyk, not his fault that his fight with Takam and Spong fell through. He needs to beat a top 15 fighter to make some real noise.

 

No he didn’t.

 

All the man said is that he is a question mark when it comes to the big boys and it's a legitimate statement.

 

Could be true because in 2001 when Byrd become number 1 challenger after dominating a fully fit Tua, Lewis was getting bounced ed off the mat by Rahman, then the rematch, then the great challenge of a journeyman version of Tyson.

No time for Byrd it seems.

 

Mcline

MCLINE

 

That was in the Amateur's, it was a standing count not even a knockdown. To be honest though, as good and complete as Bowe was, Lewis blatantly spooked him, I think Lewis would've got the genuine ko as pro's down to Bowes mindset with him ! The trash can stunt was as bad as Canelo dropping the belt with GGG, its a swerve !

 

I had forgot Byrd fought Tua that long ago, he really did fight a very good Tua didn't he, not the best Tua but it was a dangerous scalp still

 

Bowe became very undisciplined in and out the ring, I never had him down as a bully tbh. He destroyed what I call a bully in Jorge Gonzalez,now that was a satisfying fight to watch. Golota, another waste of talent

 

Mavrovic, Mercer, Holyfield were all competitive with Lewis, none were super heavies and similar sized to Usyk..Bit silly from Lewis

 

So's Elton John mate
