        Lewis deserves to be in the top 10 list of heavy greats, easily.
        basically he defeated everyone he's fought.....avenging a loss is huge, not only do you have to rise to the occasion, you have to get your mental game back too....bug ups to Lennox...
        I mean lets think about who we have in the top 10 at heavyweight. In no order.

        Muhammad Ali
        Joe Frazier
        Rocky Marciano
        Joe Louis
        Larry Holmes
        Jack Dempsey
        Gene Tunney
        Evander Holyfield
        Sonny Liston
        George Foreman

        honorable mention
        Mike Tyson
        Max Schmeling
        Archie Moore

                if lennox was still fighting he would have losses to both Klitchskos and maybe hurt his legacy, just an opionon, he would have stuck around to long and done what most greats have

                  Agree with u their Totally LEWIS is a smart man he knew after the Klitchko fight that his time had come, i just wish HOLYFIELD would do the same cause Holyfeild is killing his Lagacy doing this **** u think a old friend or trainer would have the BALLs to tell him he should stop fighting

FINSIHED WITH A 41(32)-2-1 RECORD and BAISCALLY OUTBOXED EACH OF HIS OPPONENTS! YEAH ITS TRUE HIS A TOP 10!

                    NOTABLE WINS:
                    TONY TUCKER
                    FRANK BRUNO
                    TOMMY MORRISON
                    RAY MERCER
                    ANDREW GOLOTA
                    SHANNON BRIGGS
                    FRANCOIS BOTHA
                    Not a top 10 Boxer, but no doubt a top 10/5 Heavyweight. I have said time and time again that people wont apricate him until he's been gone awhile. Look at the garbage your putting up with today at Heavyweight.

                    Those who say he wfought in a weak era are just showing how little they know about the sport. The 90's was the second deepest Heavyweight era in history.

                      im one of those guys that believes once you achieve a legacy/legend status, nothing can take it from you. RJJ, Holyfield, Hopkins are all legends and regardless if they lose 5 in a row, it wont matter.
