Has Lennox Lewis ever been asked if he thought he could beat Ali?

Would be a great fight! Anyhow Ali had too much of everything for Lewis to handle. UD or late KO Ali.

Old man Liston :/ Liston was 31 and coming off beating Williams, Harris, Folley, Machen, and Patterson. He was basically the 60's version of Tyson. Ali over Liston was one of the biggest upsets and greatest wins in boxing, hands down. No one thought he'd beat Liston.

Lewis would have a very good chance against Ali. Tyson has very little/no chance vs Ali.

Ali would do Tyson like he did Liston. Tyson-Liston.....that's a great fight. Old man Liston :/

Lewis was big, no doubt. Ali has the speed edge for sure, and I think he has the better chin. It'd be an epic battle of jabs for awhile, with Ali's faster and sharper jab beating Lewis to a a narrow decision. I've always said Lennox is one of the HW's prime for prime I could see giving Ali the most difficulty. Lewis, Holmes, and Holyfield.

I saw way back, an intervew with LEwis. They asked him who does he think is the greatest of all time, he sai ALi, they asked him - what would happen Prime LEwis vs Prime ALi - Lewis's response "It would be a draw" Great answer lol.

Ali would do Tyson like he did Liston. Tyson-Liston.....that's a great fight.

I don't know if he's said if he could win of not, but he's openly acknowledged Ali as the greatest heavyweight ever aswell as his boxing idol. If they were to fight prime for prime than I predict an easily UD or late ko for Ali. Ali is much sharper, faster, smarter, more skill full, has a better chin but IMO what will makes it an easy choice for me is his footwork. Lennox will struggle to land clean on a prime Ali. That is a good statement. I would rather see Tyson Ali. 2 fast boxers would be very exciting

Lennox would be competitive with any heavyweight in any era. He just had all the tools. But Ali was versatile as hell. We saw how unintimidated Ali was against a big man in Terrell, but there were no men that big fighting on Lennox's skill level back then. Lennox responds to tweets often, you should hit him up and ask for his take. Nice! I will. :boxing:

Yep,i would have loved to see prime Ali versus prime Holmes too super 10 heavyweight boxing tourney (prime) Mike Tyson Muhammad Ali Vitali Klitschko Wladimir Klitschko Larry Holmes Lennox Lewis Rocky Marciano Jack Dempsey Joe Louis

I agree. Larry Holmes vs Lennox prime for prime would be another barn burner :boxing: Yep,i would have loved to see prime Ali versus prime Holmes too

Would be an interesting fight,Battle of the jabs and i think Ali's jab was faster and sharper,But Lewis had size,and power on his side. I agree. Larry Holmes vs Lennox prime for prime would be another barn burner :boxing:
