    He had fights as a champion, thus he was "disputed"...

    Lewis will always have that niggling question re: Bowe, the latter of whom was probably even better as a fighter than Lewis. The greatest undisputed champs were Ali and Louis imo, both of whom were greater fighters than either of the above imo.

    Wbo was not a major title in the 90s and early 2000. Lewis fought the wbo champion but he had to vacate that title to fight Lewis for the wbc title.

    Yet you think the IBO and IBC was both major titles?

    No but this was just a list of the titles he held. For those that say he wasn't truly undisputed for not having the wbo it was not permitted to unify by the organizations.

    Is that a take on the (I think) George Carlin joke? Something like, "If he's the undisputed champion, then what's all this fighting about?" Good stuff.

    Lennox.

    Never beat a prime fighter I rated much.
    Got iced by a couple of mediocre ones.

    1990s heavyweights were all a bit overrated.

    Don't worry, NO ONE here agrees with me. Maybe I'm a madman.
