      I just think a man of Lewis' size, power and talent would have been able to beat Tua in a more masculine way. Lennox, who is an all-time-great, won fair and square, it's just a matter of taste how you judge his performance that night.

        yeah it could have been a more apeasing win...I think if he fought Tua the way he fought Tyson, everybody would have praised the victory more

          Absolutely true. The thing just is, though, Lewis would have fought Tyson the way he fought Tua, had he been able to. Lennox already was affected by his age, that made for a more interesting bout.

              Lewis was the better boxer that night (hated his holding, though). But he is giving himself too much credit for that win. A prime Tyson destroys any version of Lewis.

                  I'd give it to Tua. First time i sawe Tua's left hook it actually scared me. Oh man, i think he could've knocked out almost any HW ever with his left hook.

                  Ruddock had a ****load of power too. I've seen some of his KO's and they were great, but i feel like Tua puts way more force in his punches.

                    Good post. The Ruddock - Michael Dokes knockout was scary I think.
                    Tua seems to put everything into his left hook, while Ruddock does not appear that reckless all the time. I still think Ruddock hits harder, though.

                      Razor was something else, but so was Tua.

                      Razor's famous hook/uppercut combo was brutal.

                      I'd take a prime Razor for one punch power.
