Lennox Lewis's power is very OVERRATED

[MickyHatton]

OK, prepare for the proving of the wrong. Lennox Lewis was a tactical fighter, averaging approximately 30 jabs a round. He was a very cautious fighter who tried to hit while not getting hit. He was also a massive guy, and at his size he couldn't unload every weapon in his arsenal. Had he done so he would have been gassed early. He had several one punch KO's, including the right hand knockout against Rahman that I consider to be one of the greatest knockouts in heavyweight history. Lewis was a very good puncher.

This completly answers this question and ends this thread for me!

Yeah, Asian Sensation got that absolutely spot on. Enough said!

After Lewis' first KO loss to McCall he became more of a safty first type of fighter. He didnt go for KO's. David Tua has a solid chin but everytime he got past Lewis' Jab he got hit with solid rights. After a few rounds Tua didnt even try to get past the jab cuz he knew that the right hand had KO all over it. Lewis also knew this and used it as insurance to cruise to an easy UD.

same tjhing happened to tyson except he was afraid of lewis uppercut

watch lewis early fights and you will se he was more of a puncher he did fight carefully he had too because he fought with his mouth open!

[Shaolin Bushido]

he had 32 knockouts in about 45 fights. he is severely overrated in the power department. anybody who is 6'5 and 250 is gonna knock people out. im not saying he wasn't a good fighter, but he wasn't a one punch kayo artist like alot of brit fans say. he took people out with accumulated punishment, not one punch. for his size he was rather light hitting. ...........the time is yours...........

without steward and if he was 5'11 he would have been ****, he also waited for his contemporaries to get old, he isn't **** in history........prove me wrong.........

Somebody post the vid of Lewis reclaimin his title from Rahman.


There.
