Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis Says This is The Tyson Fury Era: 'Those Fights With Deontay Really Cemented It'

[1hourRun]

Who can argue holding all the belts in the division, beating your former hero 3 times amd ending Wlad's decade long reign. He is also credited with exposing you as a snake and a complete coward. Don't forget you once stated Wilder was better than Joe Louis. So Fury is an ATG since he handled him 3 times. Stay angry you complete and total loser.

jonnyc420, why is that whenever we talk you are the one that is always bring up the trauma that I caused you in the past? Forgive me, I never meant to hurt you so deeply.

Again you are projecting lol. The meltdowns were epic after all 3 fights with Wilder. Now look at you, what do you call Wilder these days? You are a mess and I refuse to let you live down all your dumb statements prior to Fury destroying him. Stay angry little fella, I ain't mad at ya. Lol

Place your bets now to claim you had a vision.

Anyone else wonders just how crazy dominant a prime Lennox would be in this generation? Hell a younger klitschko. We have four names. Literally four established and four on the way with promise. We need to get to athletes younger if they wanna fight at heavyweight. Otherwise we end up with the mess we have. Where if you do any one thing exceptionally you can have a run because of just how under developed the opposition is. It has to be hard for the fury’s and others established to get motivated to fight unless they are fighting each other.

Who can argue with 1 title defense, a couple robberies, anti-doping violations and a ban? Stuff of legends.

Do you think the ref will be on Fury's side? I hope not because I bet almost everything I own on Whyte.

It’s Warrens promotion, usually both sides have to agree on the officials . A promoter is also not supposed to dictate what or who they are . Warren got no U.K judges etc. I find it hard to believe he didn’t have a say who he wanted behind the scenes . I’d be very cautious with that and take into account placing a bet on Whyte . The belt leaving BT is the last thing Warren would want in a defeat to Fury . I’d still take those odds for sure .

Lennox kissing A. It's not the Tyson Fury era until he beats Whyte, Joshua, Usyk. You got to beat the big guys in your era. Fury spent half his time fighting boxers outside the top-20. If he's so good - why was he doing that? You also need a lot more than one title defense to be a great.

He doesnt have to beat Joshua lol. Joshua is OUT, he has lost twice. He WILL beat Whyte and the only one left will be Usyk. And he will beat Usyk aswell. He is the Nr.1 and its not even close.

Lennox not a Josh fan so a bit bias

Why would he be? Anyone who understands anything remotely about boxing isn't a Joshua fan. He is largely a product created for modern idiot who consumes whatever horse**** the media feeds to them. The Ruiz loss could have easily been a fluke but loss to Usyk really showed how lacking in championship mentality the guy has.

If you look on this forum, the only people who admire Joshua are dorks who've never stepped three feet within a ring. Never met a genuine fighter who hold him in particular high regards. And Lewis comments are right, this is Fury's fight to lose.

Lennox would have knocked EVERYONE out in this era. There would be no decisions. And the contenders of the 90s era would have been dominant champions in this era. As I have said before this is one of the weakest eras in history for boxing at heavyweight. Weaker than even the so called champions for a day era of the early 80s

It could turn out to be his era but the Wilder fights don't cement it imo. They were entertaining sure, but Wilder hadn't beaten much quality opposition and he's not looking likely to do so in the future. Just being a big puncher isn't enough at the top level.

How much “quality opposition” is there at heavyweight? And yes one dominant win over wilder and entertaining draw that was probably a fury win, and a back and forth multiple knockdown affair that resulted in an emphatic ko win for Fury to end a trilogy that produced two fights of the year over an undefeated heavyweight with the highest ko percentage in heavyweight championship history cements fury as the beat of this era. Admittedly that is not saying a lot but therein lies the truth. This doesn’t please the matchroom/Joshua fans but it doesn’t need their blessing. And consequently he dominated wlad at a time when wlad was still on top and didn’t get beaten up doing it….he made it look so easy that people called it “boring”
