Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis on Mayweather: Not Him, I'm The Best Ever!

[48cantCstraight]

You proved that you weren't even top 50 when you ducked Wlad

[frantic fighter]

...which avenged his only losses, is something a person is born with and can't be improved upon (and thus can't be blamed for)...



Not even close. He wasn't even the best in the 90's, and only got wins over two other legends (Tyson and Holyfield) when they were LONG beyond their best years.

Lewis had fights where he came in fat and unprepared, absolutely dodged a rematch with Vitali, or a first match with Wlad, and really never put himself to the test during the prime years of his career.

Top 20? Definitely.
Top 15? Likely.
Top 10? Highly doubt it.

You're aware that he is the exact same age as Tyson and only three years younger than Evander.He fought everyone he should have from Tua to Vitali,and unlike some he new when to call it a day.Also he didn't need to fight Vitali again because he ko'd him the first time and Wlad being knocked out by journeymen is the reason that fight never materialized.

Caesar's Palace, Las Vegas, Nev. - Former heavyweight champion and International Boxing Hall of Fame member Lennox knew was inducted into the Nevada Hall of Fame last night at Caesar's Palace.

Prior to receiving his award, Floyd Mayweather Jr. received the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame Award for Fighter of the Year - an award he has won all three years of the NBHOF's existence.

During his long acceptance speech, the 48-0 Mayweather reiterated his claim as TBE - The Best Ever.

TBE is recognized by both fans and experts, not by the fighter himself. These two boasters are not even close to be in top 10.

Lennox final fight was against an ATG Vitali and he walked away victorious

Floyds last and final fight is against a bum by the name of Berto

Tyson vs Lennox is equivalent to Pac vs Floyd

Pac was on the decline just like Tyson

Lewis fighting Vitali would be like Floyd fighting Triple G with no catchweight

Lewis the best ever getting knocked out by bums that were grades lower than Berto , something is fcked up in your way of thinking .

A HW fighting a HW is like Floyd fighting a MW , that sealed it kid your an idiot lol .

Thats quite funny even though he is just making fun of Floyd, but i am kinda sure Floyd doesn't even get it.

I think you need to go back & watch Sanders\Wlad on HBO... Lennox Lewis said if he beat Sanders he would get a shot. He was scouting him as his next opponent. Wladimir choked that night. Rahman had a war with Sanders & got off the floor twice to win. Rahman got a title fight because of that win. He had a tuneup with swindell then beat lewis. Wlad wasn't able to do the same then he lost to Brewster. Lewis didn't avoid him. He wasn't worthy...

Lewis you weren't the best HW of the 90's or 2000's homie

I wish Ibeabuchi (or however you spell it) stayed on the straight and narrow, he woulda sparked Lewis out as well as many other HW's at that time.

Lewis avenged all of his losses

Also he fought in the HW division, 9 out 10 HW's suffer a knockout

He was undisputed champion

Floyd is a pu$sy and he is fighting Berto

Rahman & McCall were not bums. Just as I don't think Berto is a bum. They were top 10 HWs in their primes. McCall just ran into drug problems. Everyone will remember him most for his break down in the 2nd Lewis fight but he beat some good HWs & was involved in many good scraps.

Yeah he was the best HW of his era. Ike had 2 good fights vs byrd & tua. Tua could have got the decision. That was a close fight.
