Prime Tyson VS Prime Lewis

Lewis won there last fight so how would he not win if they were both in prime?

Lewis would have won. He had too much skill for Tyson.

Iron Mike would have got tired & demoralised fighting Lewis.

here we go again, lewises prime was not when he was a young man keep in mind he was almost knocked out bu frank bruno for gods sake. Tyson too much for a young lewis .

I don't think anybody said their primes coincided, just what would be the outcome if they were both in their primes!

You say that Bruno nearly knocked Lewis out, didn't he nearly knock Tyson out too? If he had a little more speed, he would have torn Tyson's head off in '89!

Tysons speed would be too much for lennox. He would work inside and stop him.

When in the Lewis-Bruno fight did Lennox Lewis even look like he was close to be getting KOED ???

If you going to make a point, make sure its a valid point, not something you wished happened !!

ta prime tyson would tear lewis into shreads

Tyson had not been out for over a year.

He fought Spinks in June 1988 & Bruno in Feb 1989!

Sure.. That's why he lost both times.

No its because Bruno simply was not good enough !!

But just thought that I would counter yet another Tyson excuse !!

Prime Tyson Knocks Lewis out.

old thread but i like it
If Tyson dosen't get inside he dosen't stand a chance, Lewis was an intelligent boxer who could box from the outside and knock you out with one punch....Hard one to call as i think a Prime Tyson was ferocious, punched harder than Lewis and was just as skillful (if not more) to get inside his opponents.
The size advantage for Lewis may be a vital factor as he can grab and push Tyson whenever he comes close......I wouldn't want to pick a winner but i'd lean to a Prime Lewis, but Tyson could just be too much for him.

People hate Lewis, so there will be more people saying Tyson would of KOED him, but if you look at the facts, Tyson in his prime never even came close to knocking down Green, smith, and Tucker, and Lewis in his prime was 10 times better than all of them and had the 1 punch KO power like Tyson.

Ive stuck up for Tyson since I was about 8 yrs old, he is what got me into boxing but I think Lewis knew he had Tyson's number all along, abit like Holyfield did !!

The size difference too is a major factor, Tyson had fought big tall men before but Lewis just wasn't tall in his prime, he was a 18 stone monster who could move round the ring just as good as any boxer I have seen, check the footwork out on the Tua, Tyson, Holyfield, and Rahman 2 fight, they don't get near him and all look frustrated at the end of the rounds with their corner man saying get inside, and Tyson and Tua I both heard say, I cant !!

Lewis too big too strong and too good !!

---

Agreed ! ! ! I think same as ur comment and Lewis was the best ever . . .

Man it means that Rahman and McCall punchs was 2 strong and there was some luck too . . . Tyson got beating many punches to down . . .

And Lewis drop down Tyson with many punches ? ? ? I remember Lewis KO Tyson by 1 punch and a half sholder check ! ! ! ;D

I agree. Kevin Rooney said that when Mike was younger, he would see him get hammered sometimes in sparring sessions but would walk through it. The Rahman KO of Lennox almost looked fake. Lennox was backing up, and it looked like he was grinning and smiling arrogantly; Rahman sneaks in a big overhand punch on him; Lewis falls back, hits his head on the ropes, and never gets up.

---

HMmmmmm yes of course we never knows it was a paid or real punch KO from Rahman . . . But even i think maybe it was paid so because when Lewis was never losing it would be boring and they want make a bigger money business with the Rahman - Lewis 2 . . .

tyson inside 5 mins, one half cooked punch would knock lewis out as he had the moct glass chin ever for a champ

Someone here mentioned that the McCall stoppage was awful then you should see how many seconds they counted for Douglas against Tyson. Now that was awful!

Chino

Lewis dont have a glass chin at all . . . He has a very good chin . . . 2 get 2 lucky punches dont mean that the boxer have glass chin . . .



See Sanders VS Wladimir that was a real glass chin or Brewster VS Wladimir . . .

Yeah Lewis does have a decent chin, But sometimes he gets overconfident and does not take the proper preparation for fights of great or large magnitude. But I can tell you he trained hard for the Klitschko fight and he knew before Klitschko about the fight and he still was getting that a** handed too him. Any way I think a prime Tyson would Ko a Prime Lewis.

Im sorry but i dont think Lewis could contain a young Tyson coming at him non stop.

we know that Lewis hasnt got the strongest chin in the world and there is no way he could avoid some of those bombs Tyson use to throw all night

I know he was shot as a fighter very quickly but he didnt live the cleanest life style

Fair enough Lewis has the victory over him but this topic is bout in their prime and i dont think Lewis had a chnace

Behind Ali, Tyson wasnt the biggest draw in boxing for nothing

Lewis would beat a prime Tyson...Tyson as good as he was as good as his style was he still had trouble with the taller guys and Lewis was a supurb boxer with huge power too.

Tyson wouldn't get KO'd though and might stagger Lewis a time or two

I truly believe that a prime and passionate Tyson ala 1987 would have KOed Lewis. I don't believe Lewis had a good chin and he sure as hell didn't have a good jab.

Tyson hands down..we are talking about an ass kicking machine here....Tyson was not in his prime once he got rid of Kevin Rooney and crew...but when Cus And Kevin with Tyson..that was the makings of the greatest fighter of all time....ever..but, Tyson got rid of everybody he was initially involved with and it never came to be..as for the KO's that was an uninspired Tyson...Tyson in his prime had "BAD INTENTIONS"..he truely wanted to hurt people....he was a beast in his prime....everyone has one or two bads fights so the bonecrusher and Tucker...Don't forget Tyson KO'D Mitch "BLOOD" Green outside the ring...remember Green's face!!!! Eye swollwn shut lip all busted up nose swollen...TYSON the greatest that never was...what a waste...
