    If you haven't gotten my point by now, you never will.


    Who did you have winning the Lewis/Mercer fight, by chance?

      LOL.....please. Tyson got outboxed almost every round, comprehensively beaten and knocked the *** out. Lewis got clipped with lucky shots. Tyson had a better chin but Lewis was a supremely better boxer.

        Any of this registering with you?
        didn't he dismantle Vitali's face with punches or something like that? why wouldn't he take the rematch?

        (i know why, because he got lucky in the first fight)

          Dude who's comparing Foreman to Lewis. Have you actually seen Foreman fight? He has ZERO boxing skills. His gameplan against ANY fighter was the same (shove, swing swing, shove, swing swing, shove, swing, repeat repeat)....and then when he got beat (TWICE!) he retired without facing either again.

          That is why I think Foreman is hugely over-rated. He went on a rampage and was a wrecking machine, yes, BUT when the blueprint was laid down as to how to beat him, he retired. At what, 27?!!

          Lewis came back again and again and carried on until he was 37. STILL at the top, 16, 17 years later.

          The specialist pugilist. No man test.

            Perhaps because you dont have one? Im sure you'll find someone who was also longing for the Lewis-Rahman trilogy....lol

            I had Lennox winning very narrowly. Mercer made him very uncomfortable that night.

              I don't care what anyone says, Tyson knocked Douglas out in that fight. Buster was on the canvas more than 10 seconds. What happened after that is irrelevant.

                Of course he got lucky. He was old and past his prime. Had no motivation or need to be fighting. And completely underestimated his opponent. He could've easily got knocked out that night. Yet he still mangled his face....that is undeniable.

                    he retired after almost dying after a fight and came back 10 years later and eventually became the oldest champ ever...

                      Lewis

                      a supremely better boxer

                      than Tyson?:WTF??:




                      If Mike was the same size as Lennox, Lewis wouldn't last one round.
