Lennox Lewis

Very knowledgable post.

 

:verysad

 

Lennox is a monster head to head, and has secured a
noteworthy heavyweight legacy. He fought and beatbeat top
Contenders in the 90s : Tyrell Biggs, although more
formidable iin the 80s, Razor Ruddock, Tucker,
Bruno (although he struggled), Morrison (very
impressive win against a dangerous fighter)
1st round destruction of Golota, Kos over
Briggs and Grant, TKO victory over Vitali, who
Needed 60 stitches. He dominated Tua, and
KOed a shot version of Tyson. Lennox
Possessed a formidable jab, dynamite right
Hand, and yes a good chin, though not elite
Level. Also received a gift decision albeit a fight
That could have gone either way against Ray Mercer.
Lennox is on my and many top 10of heavyweight lists,
he would give many a great heavyweight problems.
He was a force to be reckoned with. Devastating uppercuts
As well.

I think he gets overrated on the all-time lists but he was certainly a great fighter.
He's among the top 10 heavyweights of the post-Ali era. (top 6 or 7 most likely)

 

Troll Alert.

 

He beat virtually anyone who was anyone in his era. Except for Riddick Bowe,but it was far from Lennox's fault that it did n't happen.

 

2002 is in the 90s, true story

 

Wow great post. I was just trying to educate this dude,
everyone knows the Tyson fight was in 2002 and doesn't
mean much. Lewis wanted no part of Prime Mike. If a shot
Mike survived all those bombs prime Mike is topping Lewis.

 

Where's Vladimir and his irrefutable 'facts'?:think

 

You're in the wrong room Junior. There's a room titled "For those who's total knowledge of boxing can be written down on the back of a postage stamp". You should be in there,in fact you'd probably get the job of moderator.

 

Yeah, you're right..Lennox Lewis wasn't worth a damn...yeah...atsch
