      What he means is that both of Lewis' losses were avenged by Lewis so it's not like he got beat and the other fighter was considered better.

          He fought past their prime fighters that were great in their times. I mean ****,Archie Moore? Joe Louis? Those are the most recognizable names on his resume.Also Jersey Joe Walcott and Ezzard Charles were also old.

                Out of Lewis last 4 fights he had 1 defeat. Im sorry but he shouldnt even be mentioned in this thread let alone be mentioned with Marciano..ha ha its laughable!

                    I was comparing how both of their era of fighters were on the decline. Don't make it into something else which you're obviously trying to do. Go back and read where I started talking about Marciano and read that person's quote that I quoted off of.

                      I thought this thread is about career-enders and not career-long exploits?
