Who else could take a 74 Foreman.

Why do we have two threads like this anyway?

Double sigh. That is so pathetic I think I'm gonna cry.

yeah, me too.

I wouldn't expect an english teacher to understand, but to us boxing purists, the concept of Lewis beating Foreman is the same as enjoying constipation more than sex. Get the picture?

No I don't "get the picture", smartass.

Can you not come up with some kind of "boxing purist" reasoning to explain why you think that scenario the other guy painted is so wrong, or are you just going to continue hanging off of Foreman's nuts with your head up his ass?

I'm not a Lewis fan either but to say it's pathetic to assume he would have a chance at beating Foreman is ridiculous. I'll tell you one thing, Lewis's right was a hell of a lot heavier and harder than Ron Lyle's, who almost took Foreman out with that punch, knocking him down twice. Lewis was taller, heavier, and better schooled than Lyle as well.

I'd favor Foreman because of Lewis's chin but Lewis's chances in such a matchup are far from pathetic.

Here's an opinion from Ring Magazine 2003, Volume II - Collector's Annual;

Lennox Lewis KO-10 George Foreman

[Southpaw Stinger]

I care little for ring magazines oppinons. Lewis was still around at that time and they always suck up to the ones on top. We British boxers are crap compared to the American breed of Foremans type.

Lennox chin wasn't up to much. It would take just one carefully placed punch from Foreman.

Exactly, Kid.

I'm not a Lewis fan either (far from it), but it seems like every time he's matched up with a puncher in these fantasy fights the automatic answer to some is, "Lewis has a weak chin"...His chin isn't the strongest obviously, but if that was always going to be the deciding outcome when facing a puncher then he certainly would've been knocked out by Bruno, Morrison, Tyson, Ruddock, Tua, Mercer etc, etc, etc...But he wasn't, was he?
