Lennox Lewis chin: is it bad as advertised?

Pepople sayin things like tua n stuff but if that guy was so much of a puncher why he wasn't champ then?

 

I know the guy took bombs by some of the hardest hitters ever without going down. Its enough to say Lennox had a A- level chin. Besides the defeats with McCall and Rahman were all avenged. Lucky punches imo.

 

Indeed - and, burned in. No amount of therapy, specializing in psychological tattoo removal, could reverse it.

 

To suggest guys like Mercer,Briggs and yes Vitali Klitschko ,all 250 lbs of him,are not heavy-handed
is absurd.If Lennox Lewis had an unreliable chin he would not have been able to brawl with these men in
such an aggressive manner.
Ray Mercer NOT heavy-handed ? Get outta here !

 

Who did Mercer KO besides Tommy Chin ? How many KO losses does Tommy Chin have ? How many times did Tommy Chin hit the deck ? Tommy Chin got laid out by run of the mill Palooka Michael Bentt in ONE round.

Mercer has zero ZERO 000 stoppage wins vs upper tier opponents.

 

Depends on your definition of "upper tier". One of the best 10 fighters in the world seems a reasonable guide to me. Mercer stopped Daimani when he was ranked #7 by the Ring.

 

Hmmm.....right.You do realise that a fighter doesn't have to have list of ko victims
from the ring's top 10 to be a very hard puncher ? You do know that don't you ...?
Because quite frankly, your denial of Mercer's punching power is just plain daft.

 

Mercer is was and always will be a trial horse on the Pro level, this is the same guy who was schooled by Grandpa Holmes.

One more time, Mercer is and never was a lights out puncher. The end.

 

Pray tell me what has Mercer being schooled by the immortal Larry Holmes got to
do with Mercer's punching power.Mercer's status ,at least according to you,as a
'' trial horse '' also has no bearing on his punching power.
This discussion has now taken on the tedious aspect of trying to convince a denier
the sea is wet.
Yes,please,no more.The end.

 

The sea is too salty to be wet, what are you on about?

 

LOL ! Believe me bro, it's wet !
