    nie, jeśli cytuję fakty, oczywiście można napisać, że Morrison był niepokonany zanim Lewis i Holyfield znaleźli się na początku swojej drogi, nie mam nic przeciwko. Ty znasz swoje, a ja znam swoje

    Yes I've a ton of respect for Lennox. I've stated on here loads that he's right up there.
    He may have taken any version of Ruddock out fast but I've always thought it probably was the Tyson beating that contributed to it.
    But who knows?. Ruddock was never going to beat Lewis anyway imo.

    I think the Lennox fight could’ve gone differently. To roughly quote Liston “He might get me out quickly or I might get him” he should’ve been a better fighter then he was, he showed us early on it was possible - but everyone could’ve been better then they were. He should be proud of himself, I hope he is.

    That Ruddock does better against Foreman than did Lyle

    Against a '76, rusty, less powerful Foreman who'd changed his style drastically and tried to box for a large majority of the bout.

    He would also do better against Liston than Williams did TBH. Can't see Lyle or Williams hanging with Mike Tyson like Ruddock did.

    Well he stood up to some eye watering shots, so... Yes possible.
