How is Lennox Lewis not the GOAT HW??

[Barn]

I'll take Ali, Louis and Foreman as definite wins over Lennox and give him 50/50 odds with Dempsey, Liston, Bowe, Frazier and Holmes. Anybody else I would bet my money on the best version of Lewis. At his best the guy could flat out fight.

I agree except for the bolded, I feel Liston's a definite.

A definite what?

Brutal KO by Liston?

I feel Liston stops him yes.

[IronDanHamza]

I feel Liston stops him yes.

Oh thank God.

For a second there I thought you were saying the opposite was a definite outcome.

Lennox Lewis is not the Greatest Heavyweight to ever lace them up. His accomplishments and resume pale in comparison to a few heavyweights, and that's plain for all the see, so it doesn't really need further elaboration. Quick research of Joe Louis' and Muhammad Ali's respective resumes shall give you a definite answer. Although I believe that Lennox doesn't receive the recognition he deserves for his outstanding resume, he just doesn't have the substance in his resume compared to a Louis or Ali, who both have legitimate cases for having Top 20 great resumes, P4P, across the board.

However, in H2H match-ups, Lennox fairs quite well against some of the great heavyweights in history. As was stated previous, I'd only give a handful of opponents the edge over Lennox.

throw him in the early 70s and he gets iced by ali foreman frazier. maybe even chuvalo. hes good but he cant compete with the greats.
