Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis Rolls Eyes at Hearn: Miller Will Not Test Joshua

[SHO_RULEZ]

Re

With the size, Miller is too slow for someone with the athleticism of a Deontay Wilder, or even Tyson Fury. Miller often compensates for that by illegally extending his left arm out, to grab at the guy, to keep him in place .

But Joshua? I dunno...with the overmuscled physique, Joshua is a lot more stationary. Its gonna come down to, can Miller take Joshua's firepower, and vice versa.

Miller doesn't have one-punch power though, Joshua does...Miller is 300+ though...

So, its gonna come down to who can take the punches better.

Lewis has been salty for a while...
If he wanted the following of AJ he should have won a gold for UK instead of Canada, changing his accent when it suits him.. one min it’s atlantic, the next it’s Jamaican then it’s London brap brap. It’s pretty much why he never had the full backing that AJ has

lennox is speaking for the majority .If at 1/11 on Miller doesn't fall over seven times as it seems he did sparring light hitting Fury and ends up giving Joshua a run for his money, we'll be suprised but I think we'll all understand what Lennox is saying.Besides the odd one of course.

You were discussing with me it was Whyte now you too are jumping on the bandwagon that it was always Miller. Please deny it and I will post the evidence quicker than UPS. Please be consistent when you post and with your reasoning behind giving a particular fighter/ promoter hate

Whyte or Miller, it shows zero intention of fighting Wilder, and shows planning from a year back.


Did you really fall for the Miller stunt last year?

What I think is irrelevant. I just saw it for what it was, a fat cheeseburger eating yank trying to grab some headlines. You obviously used your clairvoyant powers and you are assisting it was Miller all along. That is what you are saying isn’t it? I hope not but if it is I have some of your posts to rejog your memory

Good points. Maybe as a Miller fan I am biased but this fight seems dangerous for Joshua. With all the distractions and his first time in the U.S will he be totally focused? If Joshua underestimates "big baby" he will be in trouble. All the variables make this fight so intreresting!

Lennox shouldn't be criticizing a legit champ trying to make history. I won't, even though I can see Spence BLASTING him outta there.. lol! Duran went UP and beat the great Leonard. Leonard went UP and gave Hagler a GOOD run for his money....

Garcia is BRAVE! Why criticize that ambition, on a stage like that? THATS when Lennox would be overstepping his boundaries for the company....Spence will most likely win, but might look inept getting it....that's "worth" seeing....Millers the one that will look inept against Joshua. Is that worth seeing?

Other than that, I dig your post! "The heavyweight division is being put front and centre"....the pissing & moaning is kinda fun....critical thinking is something that sharpens us all

I'm all for critical thinking bro, but I think we all forget that boxing is partly entertainment. Sometimes I just want to enjoy it, you know?

Duran, a truly exceptional fighter imho, took 3 or 4 fights over two years to build up to Leonard having cleaned out his own division.
Mikey's jumping straight in with a guy who says himself he could easily be fighting at 154. He also had a natural matchup with Lomachenko to see to.

Leonard at 5' 10" and 30 years old had filled out into a natural middleweight by the time he fought (and beat &#128521 Hagler. He also caught him on the slide and would have lost a 15 rounder.

I'm not sure that Miller will look inept, I am anticipating an entertaining or an little scrap while it lasts but a Tysonesque showing from Joshua would be no bad thing if we're talking about making a splash.
It certainly isn't Canelo v Rocky.

I think Mikey may make Spence look a bit silly at times but ultimately takes a severe beating a la Kell Brook, ruining the Loma fight.

Most logical people know Lewis doesn't follow boxing much which is kind of comical he's giving opinions on a guy he hasn't seen fight over one time. How does he have a job at PBC ,? He even didn't know who Kownacki was when he had to interview him and had no idea what to say. Lewis only follows Lewis at HE to this day.......

well he got a job at pbc bc he is the LAST UNDISPUTED HW CHAMPION.
thats ONE reason.
the other reason is he's a pupil of the late great Emmauel Steward. so he KNOWS boxing.

Hearn and Joshua just trying to set up as many fights as they can so they avoid the Wilder, and Fury fights.


Wilder is on the decline now, but Hearn and Joshua want the decline to continue before the get brave enough.

Wilder is on the decline now? When did he hit his peak? When he was knocking out the tomato cans
