Lewis is a top 5 ATG Heavyweight.

Based on what criteria.

 

Top 10 definitely. Not top 5.

 

I think anywhere from 4-10 works fine, although I have him closer to 4 than to 10.

 

I have proven time and again that the cut was not caused by legal punch. Vitali should have been awarded TD6 victory.

 

yes because of lewis's Predator Dreads coated with Alien blood to slice through Vitali's Iron Skin.

Please bremen tell us again how it happened

 

No, the statement I was responding to was that Lewis "was not even the best of his era". Lewis's era was the 1990's and the early-2000's. Tyson's era was the late 1980's, the 1990's and the early 2000's, but by 1990's his best years were already behind him.

During Lewis's Era, Tyson was inactive for 4 years because of imprisonment for **** and 2 years suspension because of biting off Holyfield's ear, and during his active years in this period he only fought two of the top tier fighter and lost every time.

His accomplishments in the 1980's made his reputation as one of the greats - and it is a deserved reputation - but that occured before Lewis's era, and during Lewis's era Tyson was second rate.

 

You have been called out repeatedly to produce your evidence and every time you have failed to produce anything credible. The best I have seen you do to show a gif of Lewis landing a legitimate punch with his right hand looped to make it look as if he's rubbing his glove into Vitali's eye. If there was any basis to your argument whatsoever you would have something more convincing than that, without any convincing evidence you remain simply one of Vitali's most blinkered and devoted of nut-huggers.

 

The fact is that Vitali fought Lewis's fight his defense was shoddy.-came on too strong trying to impress when he could have coasted and stayed away from some of the bombs allowing him to outpoint Lewis that night. The uppercut showed how tired and reckless he was, although greatly timed by Lewis- these two never would have dominated each other as they both were willing to die and put it on the line in the ring then taste defeat.
It could have gone either way in rd. 7. Props to both.

 

Got his ass handed to to him by Vitali Klitschko , who was beaten by Byrd who Lewis flat out refused to fight.

He Looked like a bafoon against Tucker in his prime years so it only stands to reason Vitali would of mangled him at any point of his career.

Instead of adapting in the retamch against Holyfield and doing better , he actually did worse. It was Holyfield who learned from the first fight and was able to do a lot better only to get robbed on the cards.
All Lews wanted to do was keep the the fight at range because he couldn't beat old man Holyfield in the pocket. Still he got backed up and bashed around and looked clueless for most of the latter half of the fight. All he had was his size to bail himself out of trouble and reapeadely held on for his life.

A top 5 HW doesn't get stripped of every version of the title he ever held and who picked his major belts out of the can.

 

All roads lead to TKO6:bbb:bbb:bbb

Here are the Holyfeild Lewis 1&2 Highlights

 

5 or 6 will sometimes swap him and Larry Holmes.

 

Anytime you want to break down the second Holyfield fight round by round, I'll be here waiting. I've had this discussion literally dozen's of times over the years and NOT ONCE has anyone presented a round by round argument that Holyfield won that fight. Even if you have 3 posters who think Holyfield won the fight, they can't agree on the rounds he won, and the funny part is expect for maybe 3-4 rounds it was a very easy fight to score.

And as for the Klitschko fight, that was a beat down for the ages. Vitali looked like he was hit by a bus after that fight.
