there iws no doubt that there is a bit of a contradiction in what I said...LEwis was a very smart fighter yet a couple of times he came into a fight a little to full of himself and a little to out of shape...Originally posted by thesiberianexpressI think what he meant is that when focused he's very smart. But it is a bit of a contradiction that he could be clever and still lose focus.
Im not willing to throw what I believe to be one of his biggest assests out the window because he looked past a couple of opponents...it has happened to just about every fighter that comes down the pike...
But make no mistake about it Lewis had brains and he used them for the most part very effectively.Comment

Scap, I applaud you for trying to be balanced - i.e. starting a thread to debate why LL wasn't great but then recognizing that he did have some great qualities in this thread. Good one.
I agree that Lewis right hand and jab were great weapons. I also think that he was a smart fighter, and he moved very well for a big man. But when you get right down to it, I don't think any of his technical skills were exceptional in and of themselves - what set him apart was he had good skills and he was 6'5", 245. It may be quite a while before we see someone with that same combination of size and skill again.Comment
