    How many times do you need telling? im not even a Lewis fan, much less a Lewis nuthugger. I will pull anyone up for undervaluing a fighter, particularly if they are trying to make out they are being objective about that fighter when they are so blatantly not!

    I will also pull people up who i feel are overvaluing a fighter,its just how i roll.

    The only thing consistent about your views on Lennox Lewis is that fact that you have hated on him in every post you ever made and never once!! been objective, why do you think the GreatA accused of being severly biased earlier ?

    You have!! to believe im a Lewis fanboy because that would say you were irrationally hating on Lewis rather than putting a fanboy straight on his love for Lennox. I know your game old! boy.

      Is it more a case of Lewis defensive liability than a bad chin?
      a lot of them would have got up though,

      I bet big george coulda taken it..esp in his comeback, Holyfield in his prime might have soaked it up as well.

          Thought the referee was a little quick to stop the fight v McCall, Lewis was in trouble but no more shaky than Holmes was against Shavers in my view.

            The shot landed by Rahman would of flat out knocked just about every HW who ever fought completely silly. It was a perfect punch. Straight down the pipe, through the guard and onto Lewis chin which also happened to be turned away into profile so his chin was in the ultimate spot to get the KO punch.

            I don't actually believe there would be any HW who wouldn't go down from that shot at least. If you ask anyone what the perfect and only definite way to KO someone is, they will say "If you get a punch from the side or a profile shot right to the point of someone's chin, they will go down no matter what"

            Go through Foreman's career. He never got hit by a punch like that. Ever. He went down and got knocked out from much lesser stuff and neither did many others. Because his head was turned into the profile position and his body was still relatively straight there is no give in the neck. It just snaps your whole head and brain into complete shock. No one stays up from that shot. They might not stay down, but they don't stay up.

            Most guys with good chins also have one good habit. They never get hit with their chin turned to the side while their body is straight on. Guys that do turn their heads keep their body turned too so that if they get hit their head turns around with room to keep going with the force of the punch. Rahman's shot didn't allow any of that and his head was turned too late anyway. When you get your punched into your shoulder you do not survive it. The shock to your brain is simply physically too much.

            It was stuck up in the air, turned to the side and he got hit right on the point of the chin. It was like the shot that Hearns landed on Duran. He had one of the greatest chins but he got hit by a very hard puncher from the side on the point of the chin. Lights out!

              you know that shot I have to agree I think it does not knock out an ali or tyson or holyfield they were better defensivley and had iron chins and could take a good punch.
