Lennox Lewis was on the Joe Rogan podcast

I actually enjoyed the podcast quite a bit, which surprised me because Lennox's commentary used to make me Zzzzzzzzzzzz back in the day. I think having Russell Peters there improved it quite a bit.

My favorite part was when they were talking about how insanely durable Mavrovic was. Russell Peters joked about how 'ignorance is bliss' and some guys just don't know that punches are supposed to hurt. Rogan replied (totally unironically) 'actually I think it's something physiological'. As if Russell or anyone else actually thought that durability came from being oblivious to the fact that punches hurt.

 

"At my worst I beat him at his best"

Yup.

TKO6

 

Wtf is he talking about waiting two years for Rahman 2 ??

He got that rematch within 7 months....

 

Obviously meant McCall.

 

I´ve watched until 32 minute, the word McCall wasn´t there anywhere!

Its about what fight he was looking forward the most.

 

Well that is bizarre guys. He's normally pretty on point. All those knocks to the head can't be good i guess.

 

I watched that, and I was happy for Lewis.

I saw an all time great heavyweight, who was happy and successful in his retirement, and still playing four chess games every day against challenging opponents!

I wish that there were more like him!

 

Lewis isn't all that smart tbh.

 

That McCall/Rahman mixup was weird but he sounds great otherwise. You wouldn't guess he had 44 pro fights... especially against some of the beasts he faced.

 

Mixup? He also told he got no fights in between and waiting for two years! Let me guess, wasn´t this the time when Steward made him a new fighter, challenging Morrison, Mercer etc.? Doesn´t make any sense. Like his storys sparring young Tyson, getting beat up, but coming back for a victory in a rumble....sounds like the same bollocks.

Beside that, a fantastic podcast so far!

 

Atlas, Lewis and Tyson, Rogan has been doing pretty well with his podcast. If they could get George Foreman on it, that would be awesome

 

Someone just told me Foreman`s daughter has been found dead, there is an inquest taking place, she was 42 years old.
