Max Baer Vs Lennox Lewis

So people have harder skulls after 50 years of "evolution"?

 

I'd give Holyfield, Vitali, Tua and Tyson shorter odds against Lewis than the two men that beat him. How did those fights go?

 

Did 190lbs weigh more in the 1930s?

 

No, but Baer faced a lot of fighters heavier than himself. He faced many 210+lbs boxers.

 

Did you bother to read the first line that I wrote?

If I am making Lewis a strong favorite, then I am obviously not favoring Baer, based on the fact that I would give him a better shot than McCall and Rahman.

 

never said or implied that I mean the punch power was overrated back then people got heavier over the years and usually heavier means able to take punches better

skills got better of able to deflect or dodge punches better which means not able to get punches in as clean

 

I’ve never blocked anyone on this site but that guys coming close.

 

Hold on…size queens don’t count size of the past. They didn’t have steroids then.

 

Every single size queen would pick Roy Jones Jr over Primo Carnera.

They discard their own argument very quickly, when it no longer serves their purpose.

 

1. Baer was big fighter.
2. Baer faced many big fighters.

 

big but unskilled not something to brag on
lennox fought big and skilled something to brag on

 

How many of them have you seen on the tape?

 

asking of lennox matches or max

 

Because they think Primo was shyte.

 

Baer got caught because he thought defence was something you built around de house.

You've been scathing of his defence many many times in the past. You were correct.
