Lennox Lewis: Just a big guy or...

i was gonna say the same thing but you beat me too it.im quicker than ali, your slower than foreman :p (the ali of old, not the old ali)

what a stupid thing to say. if ali didnt have his speed..... i was gonna say the same thing but you beat me too it.

if lewis didnt have a 6'5" frame, theres no way in hell he wouldve gotten to where he is/was. what a stupid thing to say. if ali didnt have his speed.....

That what made Lewis, Lewis, he believed in not giving his opponents oppertunities they didn't have, and it's why he was so succesful. Double negative. I don't understand.

He didn't want to get caught with anything big. When you're in your prime doesn't mean you fight wreckless. That what made Lewis, Lewis, he believed in not giving his opponents oppertunities they didn't have, and it's why he was so succesful.

a primed and prepared lewis would have TKO'ed tyson inside of 3 rounds that night. he fought unsure of himself and never attacked until he knew tyson had nothing left. he wasnt properly motivated cause he knew it would be a walk in the park. it was not the biggest fight of his career in terms of his legacy or reputation cause to me it didnt enhance either aspect. it was only big to him monetarily and would have been just as big monetarily had he lost.

True, but being a good fighter is being able to capitalize on your advantages. He just had the sense and ability to maximize his potential by using these tools. Height, a good jab, and a huge right hand. It also helped that he reigned in a weak era. absolutly, i just answered the question

That's just absurd. He was unmotivated for the biggest fight of his career. a primed and prepared lewis would have TKO'ed tyson inside of 3 rounds that night. he fought unsure of himself and never attacked until he knew tyson had nothing left. he wasnt properly motivated cause he knew it would be a walk in the park. it was not the biggest fight of his career in terms of his legacy or reputation cause to me it didnt enhance either aspect. it was only big to him monetarily and would have been just as big monetarily had he lost.

That's just absurd. He was unmotivated for the biggest fight of his career. lmfao tyson wasnt the biggest fight of his career. i gave tyson a slim punchers chance in that fight. it was jsut a big name fight, nothing more definately meant nothing to the hw division

Well, there allot of big guys out there that don't use there guys. Look at Wlad for example and Vitali as well, they crouch down when fighting opponents and dont use their heights. So you have to give props to Lewis for being a big guy who used his height very well, that and he beat every opponent he ever faced (avenged all his loses).

im not tryin to make any enemies, just making a joke. lewis would beat tyson the same way he did when he was washed up. lewis was not prime when he beat tyson, not even close, he was overweight and undermotivated. his skills, ability and confidence were much greater than anyone who ever fought tyson, he would have beaten him very similar to the way douglas did. however i dont think tyson would be KO'ed in his prime, i think the fight would go the distance and lennox would win on points, and i dont see why anyone would think that is crazy. tyson has never in his career shown the ability to fight hard into the later rounds against a tough fighter and he would not have passed the test against lewis. That's just absurd. He was unmotivated for the biggest fight of his career.

Kinda true, but no one with a normal brain can say Lewis could beat Tyson, if they were both at their prime! haha i was about to say prime lewis beats prime tyson 7/10 i just dont think tyson ever beat a fighter who not only was as big as lewis, but was as good. tyson destroyed a weak division & then got exposed by one of those guys. yeah tyson has the power to ko lewis but i still think a fight in thier prime wouldnt of been alot different to when they met, where tyson was completely shot. tyson would of been hot in the first 3rds, after that utter lewis dominance IMO. tyson bowing out like a gay

first, I dont need anymore enemies here, so lets keep it cool, how would lewis beat tyson? The same way Douglass did, use the jab to keep Tyson honest and clinch when he get's close.

I think the fight would most likely go the distance. I can agree tyson has some trouble in the later rds., but cant see him losing.

A prime vs prime matchup was always a very interesting fight to me. 7-10 times this fight goes for Tyson.

ill go on record saying lewis would beat tyson if both were in their prime, like you said though, i dont have a normal brain, mine is roughly three times the size of a normal one. It also contains 8 times the memory recall and 50 times more accurate boxing predictions than a normal brain. first, I dont need anymore enemies here, so lets keep it cool, how would lewis beat tyson?

if lennox wasnt as big as he was, he never would have been the hw he was. True, but being a good fighter is being able to capitalize on your advantages.
