    Lewis beat a shot tyson, Holyfield, won olympic gold,

    Calzaghe's resume doesnt even compare to lewis's imo.
    You can't get a much more 'legendary name' than Eubank.

    Everyone as in everyone - Reid, Woodhall, Starie and all the best Yanks (Sheika, Brewer, Mitchell, Lacy).

        I'm by no means a Lennox Lewis fan & in fact I really didn't like him much as a boxer but there is no way in HELL that Hatton & Cal have a better resume than him. Lewis fought & beat the best heavies of his era. He was the undisputed heavyweight champ & cleaned the division out. Something neither Hatton & especially Cal have done condsidering he's been a champ much longer than Hatton.

            Exactly, thats not Hating Hatton or Calzaghe, thats just stating facts, i mean, i think JC is a good fighter, but certain people just take it too far, its the reason why he gets heat on this forum, if he loses i wonder if they will still claim he has a better legacy than Lewis. Its Just rediculous.

                Why mention Hatton?

                Hatton has nowhere near the resume that Calzaghe has.


                As for Lennox, come on. Frank Bruno was out-jabbing him and out-boxing him and Oliver McCall got him out of there, he got a gift against Ray Mercer and probably deserved to lose the second Holyfied (yes Holyfield, the guy who was 10 years past his best) fight and was losing the Vitali fight. He also got knocked out by that Rahman guy. I mean come on, FFS.

                  Lennox might be loved in America, but over here we see sense.
