    Tyson also had many one puch KO's in his career, more then Lewis, Rahman or any other HW of the last 20 years.

            ''Lewis didnt take the fight seriously..he was overweight. out of shape'' people get flamed if they make the same excuses for Mike Tyson or others.

              Not a chance. Lewis was a good champ for his time, because he beat everybody he faced, but to say he was the best since Ali? Foreman would have put him out in 3 rounds, same with Tyson before he went to prison.

                  so beacause lennox got knocked down twice makes him not a great champion? you need to check over what you just wrote nearly every Champion has been knocked out especially in the HWD tyson,ali,frazier e.t.c seriously your just either biased or jealuos

                    Nobdody KNOWS how fighters from different times compare. Thats why it is my OPINION. Tyson beat Michael Spinks and Larry Holmes in '88 when he was 22 years old. And IN MY OPINION would have handed Lewis his ass on a platter.

                      He was KTFO twice. Both times with one single shot.
                      Although they were hard punches, the fact that he was overconfident and unfocused TWICE in his career as champion to me suggests he wasnt a great champion.
                      well,,him avenging both those losses help erase it to a point but it does keep him from the top 5 in my opinion coupled with the fact his 2 biggest wins over tyson and holyfield came well past there primes. I'd put lewis between 7 and 10 on the all time greats list
