    Lennox is one of the ultimate giant killers.

    I'd like him fairly early in the fight.

    I don't know. Primo was THE heavyweight champ for a time and was smart/skilled, Grant by comparison was just a giant guy who couldn't really fight or for that matter think for ****.
    Carnera would be one of the best guys Lewis ever faced, although I'd still like him to seal the deal within a few rounds.

    imo carnera was terrible and we know he had mob ties. maybe carnera beats grant, who wasn't very good either but i have to disagree that carnera would be one of lewis' best opponents.
