Lennox Lewis destroys a American hype job

Shame, a motivated and in-shape Tua could do really well in todays division, even at his age. In fact, he could do what he didn't do back then, and win a title nowadays.

I'd certainly favour him over Wlad.

 

Old, and probably not much. He's been inactive the last 3 or 4 years, fighting a few bums sporadically.

But ya never know..its not as if he relied on speed, movement or reflexes.

 

Lewis looked in great shape that night, and glass jawed or not Grant was put night, night in savage fashion. Lewis craddling Grant lovingly in the crook of his left arm, whilst delivering a sledgehammer with the right...classic stuff.

 

The final KO was totally professional (and probably illegal) :yep .

 

Is that a reference to that fantastic Naz 'don't try this at home' quote? :good

 

I think the American media pretty always picked Lennox's opponents to beat him.

Hell the media had a lot of normally sensible people convinced that Tyson would destroy Lewis.

 

People were asking Lewis about retiring after he loses. It was silly. This is why Lewis was great cos no matter what people try to say, Grant was the threat and he fought him instead of Ruiz!

 

Quality quote from a quality Yorkshireman :deal

 

Lennox Lewis' greatest talent was repeatedly making the american writers look like the thick ignorant cynical arrogant twats that they are.

 

Michael Grant vs Enzo Maccarinneli - book it!
