The first of the Quarter Finals. What a fight.:)

Larry! Larry! Larry!

Larry went down way to often when fighting lesser boxer punchers.
Holmes might make it hard for Lewis to land for a few rounds but I think at some point Lewis would land .
Larry might get up but will be to rocked to take back control of the fight .

Lewis by D

Larry! Larry! Larry!
Leeeeeewis! Leeeeeewis! Leeeeeewis!

If I thought Lewis would be beat by Tunney... what universe would we have to be living in for him to beat Holmes?

Holmes, a real and great champion, shows this guy how it's done. He picks him apart for a bunch of rounds and then puts him away. Business as usual for Larry Holmes :boxing:

Lewis has his moments throughout the fight, but Larry is able to pick him off and KO him by the 9th.

Holmes outjabs Lewis all-night and beats him to the punch, winning a decision 9-5-1.:fing02:

Holmes by decision.

Holmes by decision.

I would pick Holmes right now, but this one is not easy at all

Lewis by SD

larry holmes is one of the most underrated hw's, he outboxes lennox lewis in a very exciting fight

Lennox Lewis would have an advantage in reach and power, but that is about it. He was skilled sure, but I consider Larry Holmes to be even more skilled. His left jab was one of historys finest. Plus, he was faster, had better stamina and a tougher chin.

This would turn out to be a mediocre fight with Holmes beating Lewis to the punch all night, to win by a wide margin. I can also see Holmes stopping Lewis late.

Larry Holmes by UD.

The best chance Lewis would have in this one is to come out looking for the ko early like in his fights with Ruddock,Grant and Golota.Chances are that he would more than likely try for a decision victory and try to patiently outscore his opponent.If he did take that option i think Holmes would more than likely out score him in a battle of 2 of the best jabs in heavyweight history.
Holmes takes a close points win in a boring but technically good fight.

Two of the overall most underrated HW champs of all time imo. Ill say Holmes by decision, because he did get hit with the jab often. He usually gave up on boxing and came in if that happened, but I think the jab would keep him off.

Holmes could take one helluva punch, when Ernie Shavers knocked him down I thought he was dead, the zombie arose, and KO'd Shavers.
Holmes by wide UD.
