Lennox Lewis Poll

[da_beast]

Is he the most inteligent boxer ever (ie. changing his gameplan etc. to change a fight)

I personally think that he is up there and even in commentary he makes excellent calls aswell

Vote on it

no........

He was a very smart fighter and is a very smart man but smartest ever, I'm not sure.

[Ryn0]

I don't think he's the smartest ever, he was physically gifted which negates the need for ring intelligence atleast somewhat. Old Hopkins is proberbly one of the smartest because his physical gifts had degraded so he had to use his brain to fight instead of relying on his physical tools which he had in his youth.

Lennox was a very smart fighter but far from the smartest ever....as far as his commentary goes.... he needs to loosen up and come across more natural like Emmanuel Stewart or Roy Jones Jr.(Roy was the BEST fighter/commentator)

Hopkins is also one of the smartest that i have ever seen,

The amount of Lewis Fights that i have seen where he was constantly making small adjustments to his game plan and it was comming off for him. I think that part of his game was under rated. alot

I agree, Roy was a great commentator!

Lewis was a smart guy in the ring, but i doubt he was the smartest ever. His commentary...is pretty bad most the time though..

[BattlingNelson]

The smartest ever? Surely not. I'd go with Ali. His switch of gameplan against Foreman was arguably the greatest performance as far as ring-intelligence goes. Of course having the ability to carry it out counts as well.

I think his commentary is excellent. Not the most exciting but he talks a hell of a lot of sense in regards to what the boxers are doing wrong and how they can rectify it. Stewart is also very clever like that but you wouldn't expect any less from him tbh

[Joe2608]

He is up there but he is definatley not the smartest boxer of all time.
