Be honest. How many Lewis fights have you seen. Where's the one that shows he's better than the guy who lost to Ray Mercer or KO'd by Rahman and McCall? Look at his fights w/ Tua, green Klitchko and Holyfield and tell me that he KOs Fury. He didnt wanna fight Byrd, remember that?
People love to idolize old time fighters. I get it. But this is delusional. Lewis had his limits. Beating the ghosts of Golota and Tyson, and avenging losses he should have never had, don't really make him invincible.
How many Lewis fights have I seen? All of them.
How many have you seen? He beat Mercer. Deserved two Ws against Holyfield.
He got hit with a couple of sucker punches but avenged both, even if the McCall win wasn't exactly satisfactory. Mind you, do you rate either of McCall or Rahman ahead of him?
Ghost of Golota? Golota was considered the most dangerous out there post Bowe. I'll give you Ghost of Tyson, but Tyson was a ghost for most of the 90s.
Big, strong, technically sound, and if you don't think he was one of the most intelligent fighters we've seen then you don't warrant paying attention to.
is this in a wing-eating contest? Then, I kinda agree.
But in Boxing, he's up against stiff odds. Not necessarily against Joshua - though I'm not ruling Joshua out. But Wilder is more dangerous than anyone Lewis ever fought. And Fury doesn't break a sweat putting on a clinic against Lewis. There's levels to this game.
More dangerous than Holyfield, Ruddock, Tyson or Vitali
The McCall KO came before his prime, before he even trained with Steward. McCall was a better fighter than Wilder. The Rahman KO happened when he was past prime.
I disagree. The rahman fight he was prime but he wasn’t focused. He focused for the rematch and handled him easlisy
