Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis: ?I know how I would beat Oleksandr Usyk?

[Slimpack]

When he fought Vitali, Lewis was already older than Ali when he first fought Spinks. We recognize that Ali was old and past it by then, but for Lewis? Nah, he needed to comeback and rematch?! He was old and past it- what does it prove to lose when past your prime?

Lennox was 37 when he forght Vitali. Meanwhile, Usyk beat Fury twice when was about the same age. And Foreman who a title at even older age.

Starched by "immortals" like Atomic Bull McCall and Hasim Rahman, gifted a decision vs. 6'1" Ray Mercer, and struggled through 24 rounds with a blown-up, easy-to-use-hit cruiserweight. That's simply not the profile of someone who'd beat Usyk. The fact that Lennox was out-jabbed wide by Mercer tells me everything I need to know.

Lewis is prettywidely recognized as a top 3 ATG with Ali and Louis

Nobody cares about the opinion of some nobody on a forum

So basically your rambling, pointless nonsense is just that.

Ahh I see. You're just a ****ing whiner. It's a discussion ****head.

It's astonishing the disrespect shown to Lewis in here. He is the one heavyweight in history who would have the best chance to beat every great heavyweight fighter in history.

This thread does it.

Usyk MUST be KTFO tomorrow.

How'd that work out for you?

[Haka]

Longer limbed fighters are too clunky to match Usyk pace and footwork.

How'd that work out for you?

Yeah, I was curious if he even had logged on today.

It’s a good thing prime Lennox was cornered by Emmanuel Steward because upping the tempo and “triple jabbing” (as he said tonight after the fight) would be a losing strategy against Usyk (for him at least). Only a select few ATG Heavyweights would be successful against Usyk in that fashion and he’s not one of them.

Emmanuel would’ve had him jabbing at long range, minimum power punches to avoid counters and exchanges, and holding on the inside; everything to slow the pace down.

Usyk would still do all that he does to up the tempo and make it his style of fight so it would be a close fight. I would favor Lennox in a mythical match.

Usyk beating a big r-tard like Dubois does not equate to him beating one of the rangiest, biggest, strongest punching HWs ever.

Usyk would simply get the Tommy Morrison treatment....he probably won't get dropped but he will lose a decision against prime Lewis.

Lets keep in mind Usyk LOST 4 rounds to Joshua in the rematch.....to JOSHUA!

Lennox says he would beat Usyk the way he wanted Dubois to beat him. Jab him to the ropes.

Dubois has a very good jab. Not Lewis level, but a very good top level jab. It's his absolute best weapon and a real threat in the division.

He landed 11 of 104 jabs thrown according to Compubox. And only 3 out of 50 in the last 3 rounds. And I don't remember a good one. Usyk took the jab out of the fight completely and barely went near the ropes.

It's easier to talk about beating Usyk than it is to actually do it.
