List of people who ducked Lennox Lewis.

It is interesting to think that the klitschkos and Lewis could have fought a while before the Vitali fight took place

But the only real ducks were Bowe and tyson I mean those fights were ready made

Scott Neal???

Lewis priced himself out against Tyson after he was recently KTFO by McCall and it was Tyson who asked for the rematch against Lewis and that never happened.

Hardly any ducking going on there.

The only one who you can even consider to have ducked Lewis was Bowe

Lewis ducked Vtiali in a rematch all the way into retirement. He also ducked Chris Byrd and John Ruiz of all people. But him ducking Tyson in the amateurs for 4 years was the most disgraceful of all.

Ironically some of them ended up finally having to fight Lennox for a variety of reasons.

King Duck
1- Rid**** Bowe.
Disgrace. Threw belts into trash can to avoid a trashing. Lewis landed a upper cut combination on him in the Olympics and he never wanted to taste Lennox's power again.

General Duck
2-Mid 90's Tyson
Not quite as disgraceful, but pretty embarrassing. Gave Lewis 4 million dollars rather than fight him.

Ironically because Mike ended up broke in the early 2000's, he had to fight Lennox anyways and received the beating he should have received 6 years ago.

Knight Captain Duck
3- George Foreman (Fat version)
Semi excusable. He should have let Lewis pound that fat belly anyways.

Junior Duck
4- Vitali Klitschko 1999-2002.

Vitali was suppose to fight a prime version of Lennox 3 separate times, but each time used the 'I'm not ready yet' excuse. Ironically when he finally decided he was ready, he got tko6ed and had his face turn into a female vagina.

Junior Duck
Oleg maskaev

5- This guy was suppose to be Lewis's sparring partner for the Holyfield Fight and for the Golota fight. Instead he pulled out and won't even spar Lennox.

Junior Duck
Wladimir Klitschko
6-
He was suppose to have fought Lewis after Mercer in the early 2000's, instead he kept taking tune ups.

He took one too many in Corrie Sanders and the rest is history.

7- Junior Duck
Mike Tyson Rematch.
He was suppose to fight Lewis for the rematch, but decided to run again. This was fairly excusable.

8- Junior Duck
Scott McNeal.
Pathetic story there.

lennox said he would give wladimir a shot if he beat sanders much like he did for rahman. rahman got off the floor twice vs sanders then scored the big upset while wlad wasn't able to get off the floor...

Why didn't Wladimir beat Sanders?
More importantly why didn't Vitali beat Byrd? He was in line to fight Lewis.

It was between Vitali-Grant and Lennox could have gone with Vitali, but BYRD made him quit.

Erm no, Don King payed Lewis huge step aside money, Emmanuel Steward was on record as saying Tyson was intimidated by Lewis size, composure and power and it seems King didn't want Tyson going anywhere near Lewis either.

The rest of your post basically takes the piss out of itself, John Ruiz? Really?

lol! watch golota vs grant...lennox is ringside & won a court battle that the winner of tyson/bruno had to fight lennox...its all laid out in the telecast so you are wrong. he didn't duck byrd or ruiz. neither brought money to the table & lennox likes money. vitali got his chance & almost lost his eye & F**K off with the he was ahead on the cards because in the last couple rounds lewis busted his face up & the stoppage was justified. vitali had his chance & the money he would have got rematching vitali was a fraction of what he got fighting tyson a year before. he's lucky he even got the fight as kirk johnson tore his pec 2 weeks before the fight & lennox didnt train too hard for johnson & ended up giving vitali a gift title shot & he didn't get it done. case closed & maybe you should turn your attention to vitali ducking haye after saying he would knock him out & would fight him if he beat chisora...byrd vs golota...golota challenger 4 million purse\byrd champion 500000 purse...do the math...why waste a fight on byrd if you don't get paid...
