Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis Checks Wilder For Saying He'd Destroy Mike Tyson

[Butch.McRae]

Class remarks from Lewis here.

Those 3 are 2 levels above anyone widler has fought. Wilders poor footwork, wide haymakers, and terrible defense won't last 4 rds against prime mike.

He was trying to say Wilder would never lose to these guys because he'd never fight them in the first place

Lennox always been my favorite HW ever, inside and outside the ring

Iron Mike was the size of Joe Frazier. Just not seeing Mike in this era

If you don't see Tyson being relevant in this era, you are smoking crack. Who is any good besides Joshua, Ortiz, and Wilder? I mean ****ing Manuel Charr is a current heavyweight world champion. Ydksab.

A turd that Lennox s h it s would fight and kill Wilder.

The delusional martian is so pathetic. Wildher is only worshipped by the lowest depths of boxing"fans". Empty call outs and a sense of entitlement that is far from owed.

Lennox telling it like it is!

I like Wilder but Prime Iron Mike Tyson with Cus D'Amato was unstoppable!

Mike would weave outta the firing line of the jab an right hand and come up with a crunching left hook to the liver that would end Wilder's nite painfully!

[HarvardBlue]

Lewis said the right things. It goes both ways. The old timers think they could beat anyone in this era. That's not necessarily true either

Tyson weighed the same as Wilder.

[Dr Rassclart]

Wilder hasn’t fought anyone to match the three names you mentioned.

[Cutthroat]

Sure he would. When he gets older. Every fighter loses past his prime. Wilder is nothing special. Just watch him get koed in the amateurs. Prime Mccall and rahman vs wilder is a 50/50 fight.

Those 3 are 2 levels above anyone widler has fought. Wilders poor footwork, wide haymakers, and terrible defense won't last 4 rds against prime mike.

Tyson & Lewis were in their primes when they got starched. Wilder would have a loss by now if he was as bad as people pretend he is. He has no losses against the Purrity's, Douglas', or Rahmans of the division he is undefeated. The ONLY times I've ever seen prime Wilder get tagged clean was when his feet get tangled or stepped on.

Bruno, Douglas, Hunter, Tucker could beat McCall but Wilder can't?

Mitch Green can go 10 rounds with prime Tyson but Wilder gets starched in 4?

Maskaev literally knocked Rahman out of the ring but Wilder can't?

Even guys like Tua lost to Chris Byrd and arguably lost to Jeff Wooden.


Nostalgia. Nostalgia. Nostalgia. That's all this is.

And you bring up the amateurs when Wilder was a 200lb walking stick. He had 2 years of total boxing/amateur experience. He's been learning on the job getting better each year.
