    dang, Lewis is strong, but those holdings, uh uh. LOL!

    first time I saw Bruno when I was lil and he fought Tyson. Tyson KOed him in 3 rounds and he kissed Bruno's wound aftawerds. I was like, "OK........."

      Can't believe you all are calling Lewis dirty. A lot of the best fighters are also the dirtiest. Look at Mayweather, the king of the elbows! He uses his elbow every round of every fight, gets warned a bunch for it too, but as far as I know, the only time he ever lost a point for it was against Castillo.

      Jesus, you all don't think Hopkins got to the top of the p4p charts for being a clean fighter, do you? I've seen Hopkins fight clean, and guess what? HE DOESN'T WIN

        lewis was powerful but sloppy. this clip shows how overrated he is as a boxer.

        Lewis punched very fluidly for a guy that big. That's what set him apart and made him a good fighter.

        It's very rare to have a guy with his size and power that could box and pucnh very well. What you're referring to as 'sloppy' is a lot of posturing to keep Bruno from grabbing him and trying to push or pull him into range for a big shot. In this clip, Bruno was just about finished from that big left hook, and Lewis is rushing to follow up with shots trying to quickly get him in position to land his biggest shot possible.

        You're also basing this comment on Lewis pre Emanual Steward. He was a lot tighter in the later years.

            Holyfield used his head as a 3rd fist, Lewis held and hit, Ali was notorious for thumbing people in the eye,

            You do what you can get away with.
