ill have a look at prizefigter for thursday too although at the minute i dont know that much about the field, also the draw isnt being done till the night of the fighting which makes it more difficult to bet in advance
will probly rely on some in play betting

Lennox is definitely in the top 10 greatest heavyweights, whether he is in the top 5 can be debated but he is in the top 10. Not fighting Ruiz and Byrd should not be used against him at all. He was his career heaviest against Vitali, who put up a great fight, but that damage was cause by Lewis and he retired at the right time after that fight.
Thanks for the vid Brock. That 12 punch combo was where Mavrovic made his big mistake. I think Lewis was mainly concentrated on who he was going to screw that night and the combo woke him up. Big mistake by Mav. Did you see what Lewis replied with at 3:17? That little poke under Mav's heart nearly turned him inside out. And that right nearly decapitated him.Quote:

Not something I saw on Mike Tyson except on his last fights passed his prime. Lennox was not passed his prime when he fought his last fight and he still huffed and puffed when he got a good punch to the jaw.Quote:

he was fucking good. his ko's of rahman ( his hardest punch ever) and tyson were awesome he could box and hit hard. vitali was giving him all kinds of hell, but it was starting to look like lewis was coming on after he cut vitali bad with that badass punch.
a prime lewis vs vitali today? Who would win? Lewis 47% Vitali 53%
However, having said that, Mav didn't go down. I shouldn't bring Helenius into this picture because the thread's about Lewis, but here it is. I think Helenius would have put him down with the same two punches.Quote:

football used to be entertaining to watch, the tackle was as much a part of the game as the goal (well almost :))
your not allowed to tackle now
Yeah for sure that with full movement and weight behind them.Quote:

If he was glass jawed that video wouldn't be 10 seconds long... never mind 10 minutes.
Isnt it amazing how many fighters used the leaping left hook to try and crack him open!
He took some those shots very well.
You know form Man and EL I like to see your top 10 atg heavies because with no Lewis in it i just can not understand at all. I see no way in hell that he does not make the top 10 list based on what he did.

the period Ali fought in is seen as a golden period but in reality it was over hyped because of Ali
Dont get me wrong I love what Ali did for boxing and all the political stuff he was involved in and the general atmosphere of that era of boxing
again in reality Ali wouldnt have lasted with the Klits or Lewis
Lewis doesnt make people's top tens because he was essentially a defensive boxer who wasnt amazing in front of the cameras and wasnt american
Prime Lewis and the Prime Klits are the best HWs in history. If Ali had have had the benefits of todays science and nutrician and all that then maybe he would have been bigger and stronger and hit harder and maybe he could have won those fights
a lot of people have frazier up there in the top 10, i mean cummon, imagine if he was to get in with a klit, it would be a one sided brutalising
