Lennox Lewis - How good was he?

[Elroy1]

I've mentioned that I'm going to retire one day too, does that mean I'm fixing to retire when I get off work friday?

Get the knack man.

If Lennox was set to retire after the Vitali fight he would have done it right after or announced if beforehand instead of retiring almost the day after the WBC made Vitali the mandatory challenger based on the previous fight.

This is no debate. It's fact.

"Oh yeah larry I'll fight him again"

"Like I always say, one for breakfast, one for lunch"

"I don't know what your talking about, I'll beat him again and prove to everybody it's Lennox Lewis"

LOL

I really loved Lewis's post-fight comments, they were some of the funniest and best.. Including this one.. But clearly it was not his finest moments this one...

Not to mention incriminating

[yoz]

He wants to be a Lennox and Klitschko supporter at the same time... Talk about being a confused individual

You're ridiculous.

Wladimir Klitschko and Lennox Lewis are not one and the same.

Also, i noticed that you ignored my response re. Lewis 'ducking' Wladimir. Check your dates and come back to me...

Because beating past prime Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield equal a greater pheat to beating an accomplished world champion who has dominated the division... hmmmmmm

We all know Vitali would of beat EVERY single opponent on Lennox Lewis resume with ease and there wouldn't of been the case of him being knocked the **** out by Rahman or McCall

I don't even have to say that Lewis would toy with everyone on Vitali's HORRENDOUS resume because it goes without saying.

Who's the best guy on Vitali's resume? Chris Byrd?

Oh and he QUIT in that one

[Elroy1]

Let's be honest, Lewis was the greatest mouth that ever graced boxing. All this talk about Muhammad's lip or Tyson's brashness is nothing compared to the confidence and poshness of LEnnox's retorts, they are just as credible as his resume.. But not especially always true. Lennox is a fighter that could not lie to a camera lol

Lewis said he was "at the peak of my powers" when he got his ass whooped by Vitali.

George Foreman - "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"
Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"

Roy Jones still says he's close to his best. Klittards would probably consider that a great win

[Elroy1]

You're ridiculous.

Wladimir Klitschko and Lennox Lewis are not one and the same.

I actually do support both, but when I see one being belittled at the expense of the other like seems to happen to K's more often I have noticed, I will defend facts.

Lol at your dogged attempts to convert a loss into a win.

Toy with!?!?!

Pull your head out your ass and look at the numerous times LL was took into dog fights, even the Frank Bruno fight it was more competitive than it should of been!

Vitali has NEVER been behind on the scorecards and he wasn't when he fought Byrd prior to the injury to the shoulder and the controversial stoppage in the Lewis fight.
Vitali is the greater fighter who could be looked at as a fighter who shouldn't have two losses on his record at all...

Former kick boxing world champion and boxing world champion

LL wasn't daft enough to get in with that animal once more because he knew he'd get eaten alive.

[Mitchell Kane]

Only a weak champion wouldn't be at his best in his late 30s I guess If you want to deduct some points off of LL for not being disciplined or good enough to maintain a high standard into his late 30s that is your choice not mines although it is a valid one.

Vitali wasn't even at his best in his early to mid 30's...guy couldn't even make it to the ring against Hasim Rahman.
