Was Lennox Lewis a great champion ?

[elgaringo]

Lewis was a great fighter, he has beaten alot of very good fighters. He beat holyfield when holyfield was the man at the heavyweights i guess ppl forgot about that. Tyson is the sameage as lewis when they fought.

Thats true Holyfield was on the crest of a wave, and high in everybodys estimation when Lewis fought him. If he was shot after Lewis fought him the second time, Lewis shot him

Exactly, lewis was the one that made holyfield look shot. The bottomline is holyfield was the man at the heavyweights before he fought lewis.

I guess u forgoy raymond, I don't recall LL making Mccall cry. It was out of the ring problems and the guy was just having mental issues. That's why ur an amature boy. Make sence next time. el terr I agree he is probally in the top 15, but great....thats reaching. as for the elgra.. or what ever Tyson was the same age,but where was lewis when tyson was fighting in the 80's ?

fightin as a amateur

Are you refering to me with your point? Anyway if you are Tyson was a shell of himself when he fought Lewis!

No one will ever know how Lewis would have done against Tyson in his prime. Or the other way around for that matter.

My opinion:- CLOSE call could have gone either way

[shellroc513]

yea i was, respect ur opinion though

my point exactly to elgrio.., their is no way u can say the tyson LL fought was in his prime

but like i say if he never fought tyson he would have always been the heavyweight who beat everyone EXCEPT TYSON

[shellroc513]

yea he beat everyone he faced, bitched out against a klit rematch becasue of the ass whoopin he would have continued to recieve in my opinion. but think about who is everyone and we have said this before, are any of them note worthy. If he didn't beat mike he would be a forgotten ex-champ

[PATO 1]

i think he would beaten klit in a re-match

but way i see it, why when you cant motivate yourself dont need money have already proven yourself

be honest he werent gettina beatin he ****ed klitschko's eye up, he gave him a MONSTER uppercut which gave klit a chicken dance 2
