    I don't think you'd see a George Foreman-like return for Lennox, maybe he could catch one of the titles but I think it's been too long away for him to rekindle whatever he had left when he retired.

      I think he could probably beat everyone with the right training except Wlad, who is just too young and too active. Lewis has most definitely been out for too long to beat the Ukrainian, but he would still be the second best HW IMO. But he shouldn't come out of retirement, not at all.

          i agree,he has a brilliant resume,he beat everybody he got in the ring with,no need for it,these retired fighters just seem to get bored

            Nah, it wouldn't at all.. look at Muhammad Ali, his record never got tainted.

                I can't see him doing it though. That old adage of 'he's still got his health' applies here. It may not hurt his legacy, but Lewis is doing the right thing.

                    no.his time had past.any classA fighter would beat HIM.
                    although he was my favorite.
                    once you lost something,
                    don't tried to catch again.
