Lewis is the luckiest heavyweight in history. He has two big names on his record: Holyfield and Tyson. Holyfield was well past his best when Lewis fought him and Tyson was completely and utterly shot.

Other than that, he got flattened by two journeymen and struggled to beat Ray Mercer who had previously been beaten by an ancient Larry Holmes and Jessie Ferguson! The same Holmes and Ferguson that prime Tyson obliterated many years earlier. Frank Bruno even gave him all kinds of trouble.

Every single name on Lewis' record was pretty much shot and a former Tyson victim.

Oh, and he shut out Tua, a very limited guy who could punch. Big deal.
6'1" Ray Mercer outjabbed him.

LOL.

Even Shannon Briggs of all people had him in trouble. Lewis then ducked his way out of the sport after getting the beating of his life from Vitali. And this was just a year after he was beating his chest after beating Tyson. What happened to being like "fine wine" and being the "best now?"
