Lennox Lewis: Great or Goat?

[Truth]

He is great, just look at his resume...

He was a good champion. I would have a lot more respect for him had he defended the WBA Title against Ruiz and the IBF against Byrd.

He should have defended them all (IBF,WBA,WBC) or retired with them all rather than disrespect the sport and the other titles. He had plenty of time to fight Grant and Tyson and still defend his titles.

Had he done that I wouldn't care so much about a Klitschko rematch and I would consider him "Great"

[bigrealmike]

GREAT.

Simple as that. Bowe avoided him, throw out any qualms about Lewis not fighting Bowe...Rid**** went as far as to embarrass himself and boxing by dumping that belt in the trash b/c he was so scared.

I always blamed Bowe for not facing Lewis, but the timeframe was so short, as Lennox was KTFO by a single shot from a journeyman, and took so many years to rebuild his reputation.
