Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: I'd Back Tyson Fury To Beat Lennox Lewis

[coghaugen]

Warren has zero place to talk practical aspects of boxing. Never laced a pair of gloves in his life. Stick to being a conman

Lennox Lewis was real good can't escape that. Lewis you'd have to favour for now.
But if fury beats josh and the rest people might sway towards fury.
It's on a knife edge, a thin line

Re:

Warren knows that's nonsense - he's just sweet talking him in case Tyson leaves him for another promoter or promotes himself.

Prime Lennox in my opinion not only was a better boxer but was physically stronger than Fury. Fury would get knocked the f*** out!

Also to add, Fury should stop lying about his height - the guy is 6'7 not 6'9 so there was only 2 inches height difference between him and Lennox.

Lewis always found a way to win. Fury finds a way to draw, or quits boxing because he can't be bothered and comes back when he runs out of money.

Lewis was a full-time fighter for 15 years straight, in tremendous condition for 15 years straight - looked like and was a consistently elite athlete.

Lewis is too mentally strong for this clown.

They are different leagues.

Nahhh. Fury benefiting from being in a weak era. And he looked like sht vs mediocre guys back then... No way he beats Lewis

Who did Lewis fought that was so great? I don't see many killers in their prime on his resume tbh, and I'm a big lewis fan.

Well he has been inside of boxing since you were nothing but a ***** in your dad's sack so there's that.

His era shyts on this one..... Nobody saying he was in the golden era. But i question your agenda trying to compare

Vitali
Evander
Raheem
McCall
Tua
Mercer
Morrison

Fury 2nd best win is vs Wilder.

Fury's height and length are his best attributes. He has decent ring intelligence, at least in comparison with his competition, but he's not very athletic and has mediocre (at best) power. Lewis is not quite as long but is better in every other department and imo would stop Fury in the late rounds.

Close fight, who knows? Lewis was streets ahead of AJ or Wilder though.

"look what he did to him" - This rewriting of the Fury vs Klitschko fight is amazing. It was the worst heavyweight title fight I've seen that didn't involve David Haye. So few punches landed and a razor close decision. Fury won in my eyes but it was dire.
