    Financially. Floyd is the best to ever do it financially.

    That coupled with his undefeated record and resume pitch a good argument for goat status.

      Let's not engage in keyboard psychology,a punch caused a cut that lead to the fight being stopped,which means it was a knockout,just as it was when Byrd made Vitali quit.

        Lennox Lewis did something harder than remaining undefeated, he beat both fighters he lost to by way of knock out. the psychological hurdles of facing another fighter who beat you, as well as knocking them out, avenging your losses, is HUGE. To finish at the top of your game fighting the best in your division, going out with a big win in your last fight, that had drama!?!?! yeah he's legit, Lewis can call himself the Greatest, I agree.

          **** whats Lewis supposed to say. "I'm the 8th best HW of from 1975-2015". What sorta momo beta ***** is that. Throw your **** on the table & shout you the best ever. Thats the kinda mindset all boxers should have & I believe all the elite level cats think this regardless if they say it outloud.

            Thats definitely one of the most impressive feats Lewis accomplished. I'm not sure the stats, but it seems like when a fighter KO's another fighter & they fight again a very high percentage of the time its another KO & usually quicker so very impressive **** by Lewis to not only avenge a L, but avenge a KO L.

              I mean, hes kind of right. The only boxers that can say they are legitimately the best ever are Heavyweights.

              I love SRR and p4p I think he is the greatest fighter to ever live, but the (legit) HW world champion will always be the greatest boxer on the planet.

                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
                How many HOF'ers did Lewis beat? Floyd beat like 8(including future).

                How is Lewis, a career HW, fighting Vitali, another career HW; like Floyd, a former SFW and current WW, fighting a career MW in Golovkin? That makes absolutely no sense.

                  Think yall need to rewatch lewis-vitali. Lewis got ****ed up early but turned the fight around vitali would have his only real tko defeat if that fight went on. Lewis blasted him the last two rounds.

                    Lennox is incorrect but as Floyd said in his speech...if you don't have that absolute confidence and belief in yourself that you can beat anyone they put against you then you are in the wrong sport.
