Joe Louis who lost to Ezzard Charles who lost to Alvin Green who lost to Kirk Barrow Who lost to Roger Rischer who lost to Sonny Liston who lost to Ali who lost to Frazier who lost to Foreman who lost to Holyfield who lost to Lewis WHO knocked the **** out of Tyson who KNOCKED THE **** out of Holmes who beat Ali.. who beat Liston who beat Rischer who beat Barrow who beat Green who beat Charles who beat Louis. What's the common ****ing deliminator in this chart? Lennox Lewis.
Lennox would be a 70-30 advantage over any hw champion in the history of the sport if he was in serious mode, not overlooking opponents and not the victim of corruption (First McCall fight)
When Lewis got knocked out by Rahman, I threw up all over the living room. I was 8 years old at the time and watching it with my uncle. I told my uncle I was going to become heavyweight champ and knock out Rahman to avenge Lennox. My uncle told me to shut the **** up and that Lennox will avenge his own defeat. He did.
I belive that a prime and focused Riddick Bowe has the best chance to beat any heavyweight he faces. If my life is on the line. I'm going with Bowe.
Hope you didn't take that wrong i just thought the timing of the ko was priceless, but needless to say Lewis got more than his fair share of revenge in the rematch. Btw I think Ali has to be the choice. Even if you think he can't beat lewis, who else couldn't he beat in his prime? Honestly, no one comes to mind, but if you go with lewis, anyone behind those curtains with an above average amount of power has the chance of ko Lewis and thats a very serious consideration. All it would take is a brief moment of laziness, and bam lewis is out for the count. This scenario is a game of odds if you ask me, and personally I believe there would be a better chance of a boxer behind the curtains that could beat lewis when compared to ali. But I would hope to god lewis wasn't the man because he would have the best chance of ending my life lol.
