    Lennox was having a laugh. If he was 'delusional' about being the 'saviour' of heavyweight boxing he wouldn't be asking $100m for the privilege of doing it. Per fight, presumably. Please don't tell me you think he actually expects someone to pay it.
    No he doesn't realistically expect anyone to throw in $100 mill, as he so modestly says, he said it was a huge amount but regardless of the semantics This fathead actually sees himself as the saviour of boxing. I wouldn't be surprised if this was jusdt to let Promoters know that he'd listen to a GOOD, BIG offer. The point is, that if he did come back, he'd be expected to face a Klitschko, in particular Vitaly, who hold the WBC, and who would eat him up.

    People should recall that he was chased inti retirement by Vitaly Klitschko, who is the best saviour to have, that is, if we need one, which I personally doen't think we do. Only a dumb-bell like Lewis would bring up such a matter which no one else was even thinking about it. Klitschko has just come back after a 4 year absence, and having to recover from a career ending injury...What more a saviour do we need, again,...if any???

    Lewis just can't stand Klitschko getting all the plaudits for coming back after 4 years, and going straight into a Title fight against a guy with such a hard head, and only one loss. Which he won. Lewis's old belt, the WBC. So naturally HE has to float the idea of a comeback, but not on a Klitschko level, but on a LEWIS level, that is to say, a $100 mill level................BUT, whilst a Klitschko is around he's not going to get back in the ring. He'd be expected to go for a title, and They're all held by the Klitschkos except one, which will also be as soon as the fight can be made.

    And Lewis aint' gonna fight no Klitschko....NO.!!

    He just said on Sky Sports that he'd rather see Vitali fight Wladimir...

    Didn't sound interested in a comeback at all. Good!

    Lewis has already received too many over priced Pay days in comparison to his ability in the ring.

    I think that you are delusional along with Lewis. Hewas the most boroing fighter to watch. Don't you remember??? The only exciting fight he'd been in for years and years was the Klitschko fight, and THAT was because Klitschko came hunting him, forcing him to fight, and wouldn't allow him to clinch and d**** himself over Klitschko.

    The last interesting fight Lewis was in was ,,,was....was.....I can't remember. Do you remember his fight with Mavrovic??? That was a typical Lewis fight, with more action than most. Like his snoozer with David Tua. He was 8 inches taller, with about a foot longer reach,. but he obviously didn't think it enough. Lewis....Phoey.
    The HW division SUCKS ASS right now. Outside an overweight, out of shape James Toney, I havent watched a HW fight since he fought Peter the second time. Lewis vs Vitali would sell

    Also see if you can find, believe it or not, Ruiz-Chagaev which was a pretty solid Heavy fight.

    You left out that Klit was d****d over the top rope and barely able to stand at the end of the sixth as his lead in the fight was evaporating after getting hammered in the fifth and sixth while his face came apart like a slasher flick.

    $100 million is realistic. I swear I'd pay $100 bucks to see take the belts from either Vitali or Wladimir
