Lennox's victory over Tyson: Proof of greatness?

Not really just proved he had a longer reach than the washed up tyson. He basically jabbed him into submission. Nothing wrong with that i know but tyson wasn't the same tyson as in the eighties.

Lewis was good but i would never describe him as great.

Mike Tyson: "My career ended in 1990."

So........................ no.

I think Tyson would have smashed him prior to Holyfield, and in fact I think Holyfield would have also smashed Lewis prior to his rematch with Moorer.

Lewis proved his greatness before the Tyson fight. He was the king of the 90s.
