who could beat Lennox Lewis (primes)?

Are you serious? 90% of America knows who the Beatles are, not to mention Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Radiohead, Queen, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, U2, basically the entire 60's, 70's, and 80's rock scene had immensely popular European bands that are still very popular to this day. Paul McCartney is still incredibly popular to this day. You are either completely blind to what 90% of America is really like, or you are just trying to get a response. Some posters on a boxing forum don't give as much respect to fighters like Lennox Lewis and Joe Calzaghe as you do, and that means America hates Europe? You've been watching too much Borat. well everyone over 30 knows them. you would be shocked what zoomers have never heard of

Ali and Holmes. No one else.

Giving that a past prime Mercer whopped him (robbery), then a lot of guys. Prime losses to McCall and Rahman, even though avenged, doesn't take away the losses. Excellent fighter Lewis, but in time he has become wildly overrated. Far from unbeatable. Vitali was giving him a lesson. The version of Tyson he beat was a journeyman's and Holyfield is massively overrated and just on the John Ruiz level as a HW, as shown in their boring 3 fights when there was not a blade of grass between them. If he was around today, he'd be in the mix with the likes of Chisora, Whyte, Parker, etc, just below the true beasts like Fury, Wilder, Usyk. Nash out.

Why get wound up over a post 12+ years old? Are you expecting him to reply? Phucking hilarious! Why get wound up over a post 12+ years old? Are you expecting jim to reply? Phucking hilarious!

You favor george who was slow and easy to read your odd he would lose easy watch jim and see how easy he won lennox is way better then him so what did you say george for odd Why get wound up over a post 12+ years old? Are you expecting him to reply? Phucking hilarious!

Ali, vitali, and maybe foreman and maybe tyson. But I think Lewis should be top 5. I think lennox could best anyone on his day

Ali, Foreman, and Tyson I'd favor to beat him... You favor george who was slow and easy to read your odd he would lose easy watch jim and see how easy he won lennox is way better then him so what did you say george for odd

go ask a random guy on the street today if he would know who the beatles was and most likely he wouldn't have a clue. yeah maybe they where popular over there for a short while but i bet bands like idk nickelback or some other mediocre band is more popular than the beatles over there because they are american. im not "playing" or joking with this, why would i? im just sick and tired of you americans xeno phobic and ultra nationalistic ways. you guys are ****ing ridicilous. you never give respect to european fighters and not even to normal european people. ok i might exagerate sometimes but i still stick with my basic oppinion. Americans HATE europeans and will NEVER give respect to european fighters. u f#ckin Kidding me!? we dot know who the beatles were? dude u need to stop judging from across an ocean.... u obviuosly dont have a clue as to what we r like. hey u invited to my crib we'll burn one to some Beatles music....

Americans HATE europeans and will NEVER give respect to european fighters. The Beatles were popular for about two decades and then you have the band members that went on their own and had popularity here in the States. If they know the time period, American band or not, then they will know them. If they are really into music, they will know The Beatles. I know The Beatles because I grew up with them through my Parents and many of my friends were the same. Now, for the teen-generation I'm not so sure but then again, my Sister was a teen not to long ago and she has many of their songs on her I-Pod as well as many others from that generation and even prior, so.... Some of the people on the street may not know anything before their time period but it has nothing to do with them being American or not. The person on the street may not even know what is going on in their time period….. Take boxing for instance. Most common fans don't know the majority of the fighters listed in the history forum and many of those fighters are Americans. It's up to the people to go out and search. There is a big list of non-Americans that have made it here in the past as well as have popularity currently. Should we go through the list? here is a start: http://www.student.chula.ac.th/~51373177/images/harry-potter.jpg

please, The Beatles was barely even know in America, we in the rest of the world admire the beatles because they where great muscisians but you americans barely even notice them. ok you dont have a problem with europe i get it. BUT 90% of your fellow americans do. its a tragedy that such great fighter like Lennox Lewis will NEVER get the respect he deserves. imo europeans shoudl stop going to america to fight your fighters i mean its a no win situation. if they win they get no respect and if they lose they get hated on and ridiculed. For you Americans a world champ only counts as a world champ if they are American :lol1: ridicilous :lol1: I figured your leanings were towards playing the Anti-American poster for fun because you can't be that ignorant towards what was going on in America with the popularity The Beatles had. Not only them but many bands that came from England as well as other entertainers/performers/artists. There's an ignorance some Americans have just like the rest of the World seems to have with each other (including Americans). Lots of Love/Hate going on. In America, I had this ignorance told to me before I went to France and people said I wouldn't like the French. But when I went, the French were very nice to me and it's one of my favorite places to visit. And not sure of all the women since I wasn't with all, but at least "some" French women do take baths and shave. Just one example.

pretty much yeah. Americans hate euroepans and never give european fighters respect so I have every right to hate you americans back. That just shows your ignorance as well since the same thing you accuse Americans of, you are doing. I'm American and have been to Europe and I liked it. I was also welcomed quite comfortably by the people I've met and hung out with...although they didn't think I was American and were surprised that I said I was from America when asked in conversation(s). But, nonetheless, I'm an American that not only got along with Europeans but was welcomed to hang out. In addition, last time I checked, many Europeans have become popular in the States. Take the entertainment field as an example: The Beatles for starters. Oh, and one of my favorite fighters when he was active was Kostya Tszyu. Not an American.

Tyson could, but that doesn't mean he would, if they fought 10 times prime for prime Lennox would still win 7-3 or there abouts. As ferocious as Tyson was, Lewis had a good chin and isn't easy to have your way with. Prime Ali is such a difficult one because you really are talking different era's. Ali often did particularly best against guys much less varied than Lewis. He didn't face someone with the sheer height, size, boxing skills, jab, KO power, AND stamina of a prime Lewis. So I'd have to favour Lewis here aswell, perhaps 6-4 if they fought 10 times. As I say, different time periods though. Whilst it does feel odd saying this, it shouldn't so much and I believe it does even more so to some people because of the sheer huge names, weight, and prestige Ali and Tyson have. They are in so many peoples eyes, untouchable. Whom has the least losses of the 3 though? Whom avenged the few they even had? All considered Lewis could be beaten by these guys, but he has better all round attributes that would lead to him having the edge.

Frazier would give him hell for 12-15 rounds Ali would definently outbox Lennox Prime Evander and Lennox would be a great battle as well I think Foreman and Holmes stand a good chance as well. And Iron Mike if he can touch em up early...

Ali would find a way to win a UD 1987 tyson KO's lennox in 4 Foreman KO's lennox

oliver mcCall and hassim rahman hahahahahaha yes!

well America represents the Evil Xenophobic Ultra-nationalists while Russia is the true good country of the world, the ones who truly saved europe during ww2. I have met russians they are the friendliest nicest people you'd ever meet while Americans HATES europe and would probably kill europeans for fun if they had the chance. Isnt it pretty obvious why I like Russia much more than america. So is this your true feelings or are you just playing a character for the sake of posting to see what comes to the top from American posters?

Ali, Holmes & a prime Tyson would stand the best chance..

lol I love russia, you dissapoint me. russia is way way better than america you should have stayed there. SLAVA ROSSIYA! Really? Funny because many Russians keep moving here and telling me how much better it is here than there. I have many Russian friends that were born and raised in Russia for a bit and have even gone back for visits. America is still there pick.
