    I concur.
    Lennox would >>>>>> Usyk
    And I'm a fan of both.

      Lennox is the man with 2 KO losses. So, I am not sure.

        Both were flukes and were quickly avenged
        No need for a 3rd

        We shouldn't overvalue Usyk.
        His road wasn't nearly as difficult as Lenny's.

        He's good
        Best of this era of course.

          Taking a nap and then claim victory afterwards is the closest we got thus far.

            Your memory plays tricks on you. When I watched this fight the SECOND time, it was clear victory for Lewis. Mercer did better than expected at the time, that's all.

              Yup, Foreman was 48 when he retired, but does that mean anyone who retires before 48 is running into retirement? Of course not.

              So congrads to Usyk, and Foreman, and others for continuing on well past their prime, but thats irrelevant to my post. The point was Lewis was at an advanced age for a boxer that is well accepted to be a time when they could retire- and he did. He didn't comeback and chase other fights, he got old and retired at an age that is generally accepted as being an age for a boxer to do so.

                I like Lewis but even at the time had a lot of critics for being too cautious. He wouldn't beat a peak HW Usyk. McCall knocked Lewis out and Lewis was losing against Vitali whne teh fight was stopped

                  Nobody cares about the opinion of some nobody on a forum

                  So basically your rambling, pointless nonsense is just that.
                  Try extra fiber, angry little man. And I agree with your assertion in your second sentence. And no comebacks. Walk away with your head held high.
