Calzaghe and Warren are idiots...

[Cletus Funk]

Because it came from neutral sources at *********, and if it wasn't true, Warren would have countered it by now. Also, it just plain makes sense that Warren would do this. It's his MO.

Where do you think ********* got the story from? Maybe one of their journalists was invited to sit in on the negotiations

It's hardly worth countering by Warren, it's so unrealistic. Mundine wouldn't have a cat in hell's chance so options on him should he win are pretty irrelevant.

If your talking about Lennox Lewis, I don't even rate him in the top five of the last 15 years of UK boxers, let alone of all-time! LOL.

which five limeys do u rate better than lennox since 1990 ?

which five limeys do u rate better than lennox since 1990 ?

Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe, Naseem Hamed.

Simple.

You can criticise Naz all you like but how many prime Barrera's did Lewis fight? And no an ANCIENT Holyfield and an ANCIENT Tyson do not count! How many times did Naz get KTFO by mediocre opposition?

Lennox Lewis won his WBC title on the same fight card as Gerald McClellan winning his WBC title. Gerald was the main even, Lewis was the undercard. Benn can boast a win over McClellan that is better than anything Lewis did. Nigel also TKO'd Iran Barkley in the first round in Las Vegas, Barkley was a better lb4lb fighter than Ruddock and Golota put together.

Chris Eubank beat Nigel Benn, Michael Watson twice (who beat Benn), and Graciano Rocchigiani in Germany. Lewis just hasn't done that, and remember it was Eubank who left Lewis in the dark in 1994 as Sky Sports number one boxer. Lewis got KTFO by McCall at the same time Eubank was unbeaten for longer than anybody in boxing. If Eubank and Lewis walked down the street together in the UK, people would walk straight past Lewis to get to Eubank.

Ricky Hatton and Joe Calzaghe are still undefeated! Ricky can boast a win over Tszyu that is better than any Lewis can boast, and we rated Calzaghe over Lewis, click here: http://sport.guardian.co.uk/boxing/s...996634,00.html

Who sold better on HBO? Naz or Lewis?

[SliqueJab]

Well Barrera made Nas like an average fighter. Not only he schooled him, he made him back to where he belong. Why Nas sold because he can talk like your boyfriend. Anyways say it whatever you want on Ring MAgazine, there's no better publications that knows boxing and anoint greatness on a fighter. And to be fair, Thailand's very own Khasoi Galaxy who never fought in American soil was in top 80. Game recognize game, if there's a UK fighter beside Lewis that should be there, I don't believe Ring MAgazine will deny his place because Ring MAgazine goes way back. That list are well thought by people who really knows boxing. So sorry sour griping British losers if you cannot handle the truth.

[JUYJUY]

Remember at the BBC Sports Personality of the Century awards in 1999? Holyfield and Lewis were being interviewed talking about Muhammad Ali, then Eubank comes up behind them and gets between them grabbing them around their necks with a big smile on his face, and Holyfield points his thumb to Eubank and says "He's the best british boxer of the 1990's alongside Nigel Benn." When Holyfield said that, should of seen Lewis' face, Lewis' face was a picture!

But Lewis admitted he had no problem with it "I'm pals with Nigel and Chris. I went to Benn for advise when I came up against Tyrell Biggs and Razor Ruddock because he'd been through all that against Iran Barkley, I went to Chris for advise before Ruddock because he'd been through it all against Benn, and Benn gave me his advise when I came up against Tucker because he'd won world titles abroad and I appreciated it. I go and see Chris all the time. But Holyfield said that comment out of spite because he's a sore loser, I don't have a problem with it but he hasn't said it to praise Chris he's said it to annoy me."

The greatest British boxer of all-time by a distance is Ted 'Kid' Lewis, not Lennox Lewis lol! But The Kid is hugely under-rated in America because they couldn't handle the fact that a British fighter handed them their asses, The Kid was the number one fighter in the world for YEARS and he beat all the greatest American fighters. He boxed Benny Leonard's ears off before the American's invaded the ring because they couldn't handle it. He was beating George Carpentier before a cheating cheap shot before the referee said break. He beat the legendary Jack Britton many times, rated ahead of the great Mickey Walker. He won titles from bantamweight to light-heavyweight, he is top 10 lb4lb material but American's will not give him his dues because they couldn't handle the fact that Lewis was the best boxer in the world and NOT from America. It sucks, but that's America for you.

Lennox Lewis doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Ted 'Kid' Lewis.

I bet it was an honour for Ali to be rubbing shoulders with Eubank

[SliqueJab]

The best boxer in the world? ha ha ah idiot. Somebody forgot Ali and Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson, Willie Pep etc. Carpentier knocked him out because he forgot to follow the golden rule in boxing. And Carpentier is not even top 80. Just because he went toe to toe with Leonard means he should be in there. Jack Britton beat him 3 out of five and Britton is not even in top 80. Like I said RIng Magazine goes way back and this are the people who knows boxing that's why I don't give a phukk on whatever you idiots throw. Ring Magazine is the bible of boxing idiots.

[JUYJUY]

Is this the same RING Magazine who rate British Flyweight Jimmy Wilde as one of the top three punchers of all-time? Wilde shouldn't really be in the top 50 let alone the top three, and this is coming from a BRIT, he was one of the best Flyweight ever but not a real great puncher. A lot of their opinions suck, and I'm sure most would agree with me.
