          As far as my opinion goes, Lennox Lewis had Mike Tysons number. If anyone can be accused of preventing this fight from happening when Tyson was anywhere near his prime, then it is the man himself. I seem to recall Tyson paying Lewis off to step aside. Also, Rid**** Bowe running from Lennox Lewis. They all knew what was up. Lennox Lewis was by far the greatest heavyweight there has been since... Muhammad Ali.

            i think Lennox's boxing skills and height would have allowed him to outpoint a smaller Tyson, although Tyson punches Harder than McCall and Rahman put together so he also has a great chance, the fight is a toss up

                , lol wtf is bad karma going to do, fact is Tyson doesnt have the record Lewis has, he lost to a 41-1 Underdog and was ktfo, lost to an evander holyfield who had been written letters by his fans not to take the fight , but stilll khtfo, then made Tyson quit in the re-match, i dont hate tyson but to say he is better than lewis is absurd

                Fact is if Lewis had never fought tyson he would always be the guy who beat every top heavyweight of his era except Tyson
                Lewis was DUCKED by king and tyson during the 90's , FACT

                  you know whats crazy is that they knew each other from very young early teens. They knew each other in the amatuers and they didn't face each other till late in both there careers. Which was probably better for Lennox whom I think improved under stewart and became very seasoned and wiley.

                    I disagree, if you said since Holmes I would have to agree, as I think that basically Holmes was Ali minus the exile.

                      Likely Lewis would have kept that jab on Tyson, and busted him up en route to a decision, but on the other hand, if Tyson could land early, and often, he could very well have KO'd Lewis, if they were both in their prime. I have no pick, prime vs. prime, it could go either way.
