Lennox Lewis A Top 10 ATG Heavyweight...Really?

[Toney616]

He has some other fights in his prime against good opponents but those are the top 4 I think. Witherspoon would go to the top of the list if it wasn't for the fact he was so green for his fight with Holmes.

Poet

Witherspoon was green, I think he only had 15 fights or so, but I think he deserved to get the win, against Holmes.

Be interesting to see how he did these days. He'd be very popular amongst some for sure

I'm pretty sure he has the right pigmentation for some poster around these parts :cool9:

He accuses Joe Frazier of avoiding Mac Foster, which could be a reason why he praises him. He probably likes the fighters that gave Joe trouble or ones that Joe ducked. (according to him)

I think he likes Mac Foster as much as Stone Roses and Tunney like ************ and for pretty much the same reasons and with the same logic

I had Holmes just shading it.....but still it was a sure sign that Holmes was starting to slide.

Add Oscar Bonavena to the mix, his previous avatar.



Anything which fuels his hate for Joe Frazier gets approval. He even refers to Joe Frazier being arrested.

I'll have to rescore it.....I forgot what my exact totals were but I believe I had Homes winning by 1 point on my card.

Talented fighter Witherspoon one of the great what ifs for my money

Yeah, he could have been the dominant Heavyweight of the last half of the 80s and into the 90s if he hadn't run afowl of Don King and *******.

Him against Tyson and Holyfield maybe even Bowe and Lewis would have been interesting.
