Would Ali KO Lewis a little FASTER than he did Foreman?

[brocktonblockbust]

I think Foreman was stronger than Lewis and of course we all know he had a BETTER CHIN hands down, lights out, no ifs ands or buts, than Lewis. Oh, not to mention hit harder.
Therefore Ali would probably defeat Lewis a round or 2 EARLIER than he did Foreman.

I believe a Prime version of Lewis would have given a Prime Ali all he could handle, it would be a great fight. The older version of Ali that defeated Foreman in 1973, would likely get his ass handed to him by Lewis, Lewis wouldn't have gotten psyched out by Ali the way Foreman did in Zaire.

That's my comment.

Do not think Ali could KO Lewis but he would beat him on points. Lewis would not take Ali lightly, Ali did not punch with the venom of Rahman and McCall, but Ali in his prime was too fast, agile, smart and class boxer ever.

Emmanuel Steward Lewis would be too much for Ali imo. Ali would struggle getting past that jab but he also has that right hand to worry about. He's never fought anyone who was big and fluid as Lennox..

The Lion punishes him...

Lewis would've been a punching bag for Ali in any era, it would take a three toed sloth about a month to walk one mile, marginally faster than Lennox Lewis in the boxing ring. Ali would be snapping his head back all night with that jab, so would Holmes. Like Ali's pre Rumble fight talk describing Big George "Here comes George with a left, here comes George with a right" Ali was saying this in slow motion. Lewis was easily hit, he was an easy target and would lose easily to Ali in any era of Ali's career except post Rumble. Ali should've been retired after the Thriller in Manila.

Yes Lewis was easily hit. Holmes would've pistoned-off his head in about 4 rounds with the jab alone. 3-toed sloth is a great comparison Third Man, beautiful point. Lewis too slow for sure.
