  • Its an outrage how underappreciated lennox lewis is

    frankly im fed up with it. lennox lewis is a top 2 heavyweight of all time, arguably number 1. he would be a strong favorite to beat any heavy weight in the history of the sport in a 1-on-1 match up, including ali. Resume's dont get much better than his. he fought every top contender and marquee name there was except for chicken bowe who disgracefully ducked him. he also fought through different generations and beat the best heavy weights from each one, including his final epic performance against the then prime vitali. he had size, reach, ring IQ, power, speed, combinations, and most of all wasnt afraid to fight anyone. theres literally NO weakness in lennox lewis.

    yet all i hear is how he has a "glass jaw" and was knocked out by rahman and mccall (both of which he avenged brutally), and other weak arguments.

    people need to start respecting the great one much more than they do. it is a bit sickening how a top 2 heavy weight of all time can get so little praise. with 100% confidence, name me ONE heavyweight in the history of boxing who you can say would easily beat lennox lewis. you cant. because lennox was that good.

                I would anticipate most people see him at a top 5 HW all time... don't think anyone is stupid enough to not have him in their top 10.

                  I think he would be top 5 in most people's ATG Heavyweights list tbh.

                    Meh. He sure wasn't underrated as a commentator. Just not a good fit for him.
