Ruddock would need a "lucky punch" to bail him out against either one. And i dont believe in lucky punches. Ruddock had a freakishly long reach but his straight punches had become so underdeveloped that it would be bowes straight punches beating razors wild uppercuts and hooks to the punch. That being said neither lewis nor bowe had an impenetrable chin, bowe showed that he could be dropped hard by one punch from good but not great punchers and pretty much be out on his feet for the entire round. I wouldnt bet on ruddock.
Why even ask? Do you think that it might have happened, if Ruddock had done something differently? History might have been very different, if Joe Grim had beaten some of the people that he lost to!
Nothing just the people would know earlier Lewis' glass chin.But better late than never the first McCall fight proved how overrated is the glass-chinned Lennox.
