Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis: Wilder-Fury is Way Bigger Than Joshua-Povetkin

[Straightener]

No, but he is a 2 time doping offender of another dope and last fight was david price? and cristian hammer? These are top 10 stal*****.

You can’t compare David price and hammer to the two guys fury just ‘boxed’

Stop reaching

Fury’s also a drug offender ...... so was Ortiz

everytime lewis talks about Joshua its negative stuff,,i wonder if he just doesn't like him

lennox has openly talked about joshua se;ecting his future fights in the safest way possible...its hard for a true heavyweight champ like lennox to see the best unwilling to fight

it's becoming like that, his utterings are becoming less balanced whenever the topic is AJ

In terms of the characters and build up - Fury/Wilder trump the excitement of AJ and POV.

AJ has such a lacklustre personality which is reasonable if he was a golfer but for a Heavyweight Champion with the majority of the belts he's just not a good sell for your average fan. I'm British, and while there are lots of US fight fans who dislike AJ simply because he isn't one of them I can see why the more balanced fans don't take to him. He's a decent fighter who is steadily improving and is seen as a ladies man - the only problem is, most boxing fans are men and the last bit interests none of us. He doesn't get you excited for his fights, and he wasn't that willing to put it on the line in a winner takes all v Wilder.

That being said, if Wilder and Fury step in the ring, I expect it to to be a drab affair and can actually see the less heralded fight of Pov and AJ being a good boxing matchup.

PPV'S cost less in the UK.

Sure does and Wilder fights for Free in US.

Lennox may be right but the Wilder vs Fury fight won‘t happen. Redneck Fury is going to pull out with an „injury“ as he did a couple of times for the planned Wlad rematch.

I dont think there is any plan for them to fight this is all about keeping there name in the news, of course I could be wrong.

If I am wrong what is holding up the fight maybe Vegas does not want it which would not surprise me as I cant see how they would make any money.

i would say lennox has being pretty consistent in what hes saying. hes clearly not a fan of joshua's avoidance of certain fighters. its hard to argue against a man that fought anyone and everyone (apart from bowe which cant be blamed on lennox)
as he says sometimes fighters need to overrule the promoter but clearly joshua is happy making money and avoiding the real threats in the division

He still picked AJ to beat Wilder in an interveiw yesterday. His words 'the straighter right hand reaches the target first'

Pianeta=Price, 33-5 record compared to Price's 22-4

Fury dominated and stopped Hammer 3 years ago and was not in great shape weighing 5lbs heavier than when he fought Pianeta.


Both guys were tuneups, Pedvetkin gave these guys 100%.

Pedvetkin's own coach said he hasn't looked the same since getting popped with PED's.
