      10 seconds is 10 seconds. 10 is a number and numbers don't lie.

      Understand?

        Lewis was a great champ, I am agreed his two title stoppage title losses keep him out of the very top echelon of heavyweight greats, and his wins over a faded Tyson and Holyfield don't overcome that. But he did run the heavyweight division and even unify all the belts. An important accomplishment that seperates true champions from titlists.

He owes his career in boxing to the training he got in Canada as even he will tell you.
          He owes a lot to Canada but he's not Canadian at all.

            Lewis was a great fighter.

            I would have liked to see him rematch Vitali, but oh well.

              Yes and Buster Douglas got up before the referee reached 10 seconds.

                Sorry, but it just doesn't.

                The first fights prove that Lewis would always have trouble with any HW with a good chin and decent pop (that wasn't 5'9" of course.)

                The second fights don't prove anything.

                  you mean before 10 counts, not 10 seconds, because he was down more than 10 seconds. the ref made a mistake. Agree?

                    And the ref started counting at 2 while Douglas had been on the canvas 5 seconds.

                    Understand?

                    It is clear as day that Douglas was down over 10 seconds, from the video YOU posted.

                      The first fight proved that Lewis didnt take it seriously enough. The second fight just confirmed that fact. In the biggest fights of his career, Lennox always delivered.
