Usyk vs 2003 Lennox Lewis

Pal do you really want me to go through it for you?

 

I'll do it just to prove you wrong. Lewis landed several clean uppercuts.

 

Fair play Pal. Round 1 0 clean uppercuts

 

If on his bike = boxing and moving with better movement and timing than Joshua then yes, he was on his bike especially in round 12 which debunks your notion that he was a "plodder at best" and "turned into a plodder when he was tired" because he was a bit tired late so he clinched with Mavrovic a lot and smartly leaned on him to take the energy out of him. Even then he was on his toes just fine late in the fight and was good with those right straights

 

Round 2 T Rex Vegan Mavrovic winning the battle of the jabs 1st minute. Lewis winning second. 3rd minute first instance of holding the head down and punching. Not an uppercut but a short right hook by Lewis. Mavrovic drops his hands and avoids Lewis jabs to the head. Last 10 seconds Lewis holds the head and uppercuts.

 

He was gassed. Mavrovic is no Usyk. Usyk is an elite athlete and he has the footspeed to dominate Lewis footspeed.

 

2:22 3rd round. Mavrovic hit's lewis with a punch a meat eater would have KO'd him with. Followed by Lewis holding the head but swinging wildly with a right hook and missing. Another attempt at his patented dirty boxing.

 

0:37 seconds 3rd round remain. Lewis holds and hits rear uppercut again. 3rd Round Mavrovic hit Lewis repeatedly with overhand rights. A bigger puncher would have had Lewis out at this point. 3 rounds in and 2 instances of illegal tactics.

 

Usyk is such a great athlete that it has send the whole boxing world into a paradigm shift. He is truly a great fighter. Once in a generational talent.

 

Even a fat out of shape Lewis wouldn't fight as stupid a fight as Joshua did. He'd use his weight advantage to push back and bully Usyk. He'd land cleaner punches too.

Lewis by UD.

 

I thought I saw a thread about Usyk vs. Ali and/or Iron Mike. Now Usyk vs. Lewis.

Damn, the man crush for Usyk in this forum is unbelievable.
Was this because of the thread "New Pics of Usyk's Body" which had one of the most number of views. LOL

I thought the man crush for Loma a few years ago was ridiculous but this one for Usyk is too much.

 

Re-read what you wrote and I agree. Usyk did a once in a generational thing in dominating the less athletic big man. It was a great night for boxing as a sport.
