Lennox Lewis vs AJ, wilder, Fury - who wins?

Fury loses to all 3. Lennox-AJ I put at 55/45. Lennox-Wilder 80-20. AJ-Wilder 70-30

 

Wilder is much better than Grant. MUCH harder puncher, much quicker, much more unpredictable, has absolutely different killer instinct. He even has a better chin.

AJ is MUCH better than Briggs. More skilled, more variative fighter withh much higher boxing IQ.

I would favor prime Lewis against all of them, but I'm sure none of those guys would be as easily to beat as Michael Grant.

 

If he gets hit with a same right hand from Wilder that he got hit by Michael Grant early in the first round, the fight would be over. Golota and Grant were two of the slowest starters in boxing history. Golota was knocked down 9 times in the first round (including 2 KD's from Lewis), Grant was knocked down 8 times in the first round (including 3 KD's from Lewis).

 

Golota and Grant didn't start getting knocked down early until Lewis wrote the blueprint.

 

Grant was knocked down twice by Golota in the first round in his last fight BEFORE facing Lewis.

 

I don't see him stopping any of them unless it's via tko6 type dark arts.

 

Only chance they would have is if it was booked as a wrestling style gauntlet match. He fights one after another. Which one would get lucky? Think I'd still fancy Lewis to get through them all because he is the master.

Regular fights and I fancy him to stop them all. Fury might make it to points defeat.

 

There are many superior boxers from the heavyweight divisions of bygone days that would struggle against Fury, Wilder or Joshua simply due to their size and the benefits of modern fitness training and nutrition. I think peak Lewis however has the combination of boxing ability and physique to win any of these match-ups. His top level was better than anything we've yet to see from these three.

I think he can alter his gameplan for each and come out on top. There's a risk he's clipped, particularly against Wilder. A risk that AJ's distance management and ever improving jab and power will give him problems and Fury will prove awkward till Lewis can engage. But I think he wins each of those battles.

 

lennox tkos furry n aj late, kills wildman early.

 

I am suggesting the style of fight and how Lewis might approach each fighter not that Wilder and Joshua are at Grant and Briggs level.

I think Lewis would go straight at Wilder in the same way he did Grant, he wouldn’t allow Wilder any room and would simply overpower him up close right from the first bell. I suspect a right cross or right uppercut would be the punch which put Wilder to sleep.

In the Joshua match I see Lewis respecting his size & strength a bit more so the early rounds would see Lewis moving and jabbing while finding some big power shots. I think he’d drop Joshua however I see AJ climbing back to his feet a couple of times before finally being stopped, in other words very similar to the Briggs fight.

 

Personally I think Lewis works them all.

 

Maybe has a Rahman/McCall moment against Wilder but would probably wreck Wilder's life in fights 2 and 3.

 

They'd smash Lennox at the buffet. Some of the current crop should be world eating championship contenders.

 

This is how I see it going.

Lewis beats Wilder KO 11th round (Pretty comfortable win, very similar to how Ortiz played out, but Lewis can use his better height than Ortiz to his advantage and it gets him over the line)

beats Joshua 9-3 on points (Again fairly comfortable, but in the early rounds he has to change and adapt to Joshua)

beats Fury KO 10th round (Although Lewis will be behind in the fight up until the stoppage, Fury's chin and stamina towards the end lets him down and he gets caught a few times)

 

Lewis beats all 3. Wilder probably has the best chance to pull a McCall/Rahman upset.
