    lennox lewis is the best boxer ive seen of my era even tho i couldnt call my self a fan when he was around but the division misses people with the skills of an hollyfield or lewis and the ko power or a mike tyson every decade has had its shining fighters in the heavywieghts but 2000-2010 will get ripped straight out of the record books if about 5 real contenders materialise in the next year

      a lot of heavyweights could have beaten a prime tyson. he fought in a very very weak era

        Cause we all know that Rahmans win was a fluke. OUTMATCHED.

          Boxing fans these days just want to see someone Unify...
          he was a very good heavyweight champ,,,but Id put holyfield with him if not a notch above. holy fought lewis when he was wayyy past his prime.so its unfair to call lewis better becuase of those fights. holy also fought and beat a much fresher and more in shape tyson then did lewis. its a shame lewis never fought a prime bowe. that would have helped settle who was better between him and holy. I stil feel a prime bowe would have beaten lewis. just too many combinations on the insidefrom bowe. lewis would have had big time trouble with bowe

            Bro Lewis stopped Bowe with ****ing Headgear in the Amatuers, and Bowe refused to Fight Lewis in the Pro's

            Other than that Holyfield was 36 when he fought Lewis and Lewis was 33, not much of an age difference..

                amateurs dont mean ****. jorge gonzalez destroyed bowe in the amateurs and was destroyed by bowe in the pros. bowe improved immensely in the pro ranks. and age difference means ****. holy was an old shot 36 who had taken beatings while lewis started his pro career late and was a fresh 33

                  The bottomline is Bowe refused to face Lewis in Pro's, I hope you can get over that.

                    That is the bottom line. All this talk about Bowe would have beat Lewis is pretty amusing.

                    Bowe didn't fight Lewis because he was mentally weak, and afraid of Lewis. He wasn't all there, and for some reason, Lewis was in his head.

                    Talking about what would have happened if Bowe wasn't afrid of Lewis is pretty futile.

                      hope I can get over it? Lol,,,I was never a fan of bowe's or holyfield so you get over it. yes I know bowe was ducking him,,but I still think he;d have beaten lewis if they fought but instead bowe took the other road instead of taking a chance of losing in facing lewis
