    Well at least he'd have had more money to spend IF he could have stopped Ali. And I don't think he'd have carried the hate towards Ali that he does to this day.

    Who knows. That fight was the most brutal fight I think I ever saw. Maybe both of them would have to be carried out on a strecther.
     
  2. I feel sorry for the 20 guys who did pick lewis lmao. Surely poor fanboys from uk.

    Foreman must of been the strongest heavyweight the mans a beast. Lewis was a good boxer worth his weight in gold and deserves his elite status.

    Watch it!!! Just proves the best do get caught and the ref would of carried on the count and probably not let him carry on or he would of been stopped by a C rate fighter!!! What they did in the corner would not be allowed.

    I will reiterate that i think Ali is the greatest HW of all time i just cannot stand the abuse Lennox gets as he is one of the best too!! Glass chin, you ****ers get caught cold by a heavy weight punch and you will go down!! Ask Ali who got caught by Cooper a heavy weight who would of been fighting @ LHW or Cruis today.

    As far as I'm concerned if you don't have the resume, you cannot claim to be good p4p, h2h or whatever. The resume is what makes or breaks you. This is why Lewis and the K-bros should not be uttered in thesame sentence as Ali, Foreman, Frazier and many other legendary fighters who actually fought and proven themselves against other legends in their prime.
     
  6. yes, foreman is the strongest hw, no doubt . Lewis was a great fighter but his great fault was his chin, you can not compare ali with lewis, ali is in other league

    Ali went up and apoligised to joe's son after the match for the way he had behaved, but thats not good enough he didnt say it to him.
    I respect Ali for what he done in boxing but hate the bloke for what he is, he took it to far Joe did alot for Ali behing the scenes to try and get his license back and Ali dropped a big **** on his head from a great height.

    If you're really THAT good, it would reflect in your resume.

    Yes I agree I dont think you can compare many of the heavyweights from past to future.
     
  10. 1_ i am a hw.
    2_ lewis was ko by aVErage punchers and bums like oliver mccall and rahman, ALI WAS DOWN AGAINST COOPER BUT ALI WAS VERY GREEN, AND ANYWAY HE GOT UP AND HE WON THE FIGHT BY TKO, HE DESTROYED THE EYE OF COOPER, AND A PRIME ALI DID BEAT COOPER AGAIN IN THE REMATCH.(KNOCK DOWN IS NOT KNOCK OUT)
    3_ali took shots from the hardest punchers of all time, foreman,shavers,liston,frazier,lyle

    4_lewis looked like a drunk against frank bruno( a ****ing bum with glass chin).

    Yeah Ali carried his act too far in the build-up. Still it's big-time boxing and fighters, especially HW's, says a lot of things that's so unreal and nasty.

    Tyson was awful as well. He even said some things AFTER the fights that he shouldn't have said.

    As for Frazier helping Ali getting his license back: Don't forget that Frazier had reason to help. Millions of dollars worth of reasons.

    Ali over Lewis, But anyone who says Ali destroys lewis, Lewis has no chance and all that bull sh!t seriously need to get a grip. You know f uck all about boxing and are probable just fan boy band wagon jumpers.
