He's top 10 no doubt. Lewis like Holmes will not be apricated until he's been gone awhile. People let there personal feelings get in the way when talking about Lewis, cause they dont like him as aperson or think he was boring they dont give him as much credit as he deserves, but at the end of the day his resume is as good as any heavyweight who has ever fought.
His numbers stack up against anyone
Gold Medal
3 Time heavyweight Champion(Holyfield and Ali are the other two)
16 Title defenses over 10 years(3rd behind Louis and Holmes)
Beaten every man he has every fought(Only Marciano can say that)
He's in the 5-10 range and should always be put above Holyfield and Tyson.
actually marciano was undefeated lewis was defeated twice. yes i know he came back to avenge his losses.
Stewart knows his shit, totally.....but he's also VERY BIASED when it comes to Lennox.
I don't listen to him when it comes to his own people.
you beat me to it i was gonna say the same thing.
stewarD!!!! yeah he does know his stuff but he is a bit of a whore when it comes to jumping camps, be interesting to know his take now lewis is retired. read not so long ago he called lennox a coward when he was trainign the Klits, thats piss poor form in my book. You cant spend ten years with someone then turn on them cos they have retired. For that reason only and his lack of respect for Lennox's future and decision I lost a lot of respect for Manny as a person.
yeah but he was right.
:D
