Lewis Vs Frazier

[jabsRstiff]

I love Joe Frazier.

But, I think he'd get blasted by Lewis.

Joe would really struggle to reach Lewis....& I see Lennox catching Joe with some nasty right uppercuts & crosses.

Lewis absolutely possessed the power to KO Frazier.


It hurts me to say this, because Joe's a fave & I've never liked Lewis. But, gotta be realistic.

REAL BOXING FANS...know that with lennox's power size and smartness he was the most dominate heavyweight of all time...i know he didnt look flashy like u guys like to see in order for U to call somebody great...frazier dosent pose a threat to lennox..hed eat jabs and rights all night

I think it's to many here that overrate Lewis, saying thinks like Lewis KO Ali, and Frazier wouldn't be a threat to Lewis.

[J !]

frazier would a be a threat to anyone in boxing history to say otherwise is ridiculous, however I do think Lewis would beat frazier.

Lewis would be WAY more cautious then Foreman was b/c once he felt Joe's power he'd go into his shell like he always did. He only got Golota out so fast once he realised Golota wasn't throwing any punches and Razor Ruddock had ZERO defense. Frazier's bobbing and weaving style would literally send Lewis into panic mode once he realised he's not facing a flat-footed, no movement weightlifter who throws 20 punches a round (the prototypical Lewis opponent)

Lewis would find a way to hold his head down and sock him knocking him out. Lewis is a cheater..

Of course he's a cheater....he beat Mike Tyson.

Only cheaters, fixers, or Mike himself beat Mike, right dreamer ?

[jack_the_rippuh]

I'm talking about when he fought Michael Grant. He kind of held his head down while Grant was ducking and nailed him...But you were right about the Tyson thing. Only cheaters..

Is it really fair to compare Lewis at any stage in his career to the Foreman that Frazier faced? I mean, that pre-Ali Foreman and the young Tyson were probably the two scariest fighters ever.

True, very true. I think however, there are posters here who do not remember just how mean and nasty Big George used to be.
Some of the posters are quite young, that much is obvious.

He used to scare reporters, sparring partners, even his own camp!You just never knew which Foreman you were going to get from one day to the next. I loved to watch the press dodge Big George, when he came near it was like watching the Red Sea part!!

As for Tyson - well, he is a time bomb period.
