    Thats a fine work, seems like Charles confused the weightclass here and looks pretty angry afterwards.
    Good mobility though.

    In the light of recent events: Keep the fighters were they belong. No need for unrightful meetings. Thanks.

    He's making fun of posts with massive weight disparities, and the coloured AI posts, at the same time.

    Damn, didn't know Lewis was such a dirty fighter. Counted 3 low blows in the first round

    I have a new respect for him

    Edit: also HOLY **** Lewis is EXPLOSIVE here. His body must've given him the Marciano treatment and aged his fast twitch like milk cause I've never seen him nearly this fast. Must be because he was lighter and wasn't conserving anything

    Nah if someone throws low blows, they deserve the opposite, contempt, if they try to win by vicious cheating techniques. Which is the opposite of decent or brave.
    Though it may well have not been intentional. He was wild & green, but had limited control of his temper anyway.

    He bulked up, added lots of muscle-he was bulled around here when pushed back by Epps, who by modern HW standards is thin.
    He would not have been as good if he remained in the mid 220's at 6' 5".
    Arguably his workrate & speed miht have been better-& most of the strength benefits there-if he did not go beyond ~ 235. Which he says in a video clip was his best weight.

    But why did nobody disuss what the video does not answer-why Epps was disqualified/
    I guess because when escaping Epps, bent down + facing & moving the other way, Epps was ounching at him?

    OK, though when some folks actually endorse things like chewing off an ear & assorted sordid mayhem that they could not take from an opponent...We cannot tell that you are not also loving the evil conduct.

    Your opinion on the cause of the disqualification & the possible ideal size of Lennox is welcome Lachbuster.

    I don't know what to call that. Wild as heck at 5:20, that was some hilarious stuff.

    I don't think he did anything worthy of being DQd and ofc Lewis needed to fill out his frame for extra strength (without putting on fat), which he did, at 235-240. Looked a bit scrawny here. I was just commenting on how he was a fast lil ****er

    P4p Charles was a better fighter but I think Lewis’s power and physical advantages would see him to a stoppage win
