    I don’t know why you’re lumping snail-speed Marciano with the dynamo that was Dempsey. Because they’re similar weights?

    Max Schmelling. That straight right hand of his was really something. Also he had pretty good upper body and head movement if he wanted. Lewis chin wasn’t the best so if Schmelling can slip some punches and land the right hand out of nowhere he has a chance.

    It is not very inspiring to read that a fighter challenging for the worlds Heavyweight championship came into the ring, “completely apathetic.”

    It was just my take on it. To me, Lewis didn’t seem all that focused. He was awfully close to being knocked out in the first round.
