Lennox Lewis: Kind of Overrated

[Ryn0]

working behind the jab and throwing the occasional right is not a technician's game. a technician has way, way, way more to his game. Lennox Lewis has a vastly superior arsenal to Wlad's but that's mainly b/c Wlad's arsenal consists of two punches and maintaining distance.

holyfield and Bowe are both better technicians than lewis.

They may have been better technicians though I disagree that Bowe was a better technician than Lewis I merely said Lewis could be an effective technician using the 1-2 and footwork.

Never did I mention that those were the only things in a technicians game but only that Lewis could use those to great effect.

lewis would outbox ali what pish you talk. peak holyfield would of beat lewis due to his punch output.

[Dynamite Kid]

He would kayo every single currently active HW right now. Wlad wouldn't even last two rounds.

That said, I hear too much **** about his inside game. It's not even that good. He could put some pretty combos together inside and throw that nasty uppercut but if you wanna see a real inside technician, watch Bowe. A very fluid boxer on the inside. Parry, counter, etc. he did it all.

Rid**** Bowe is the most well-rounded super-heavyweight ever.

Ali did not have an inside game, does that translate to overrated ?

Wlad has an amazing left hook but hasn't needed to use it recently because he's been dominating from the outside. You probably have never seen Wlad fight before Manny taught him to be be complete fighter and pace himself, because if you did you should know he was an offense first fighter that has tremendous offensive abilities...

a tremendous lefthook? wlad's best offensive showing was against mercer.

his punching technique on that lefthook needs vast improvement.

complete fighter? are you kidding me? do you even watch boxing?

I've been watching boxing since 1977 and was an amateur boxer in the 80's so I know the sport.

If Wlad wasn't a complete fighter then he would not have gone undefeated over the last 5 years while rarely even losing a round. If there's a fighter that can test Wlad more he will show his numerous boxing abilities again. Wlad is probably the most fluid big HW in history history.

[Mersey]

He was very good at what he did, because he fought more on the outside than inside, that doesn't make him overrated.
