how good was lennox lewis

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Lewis was and is one of the Greatest heavyweights in history....he beat everyone he fought and would have beaten Wlad much easier if he had trained for him when they fought...Wlad did very well against Lewis due to a few factors

1. Lewis was suppose to fight someone easier that night
2. Lewis under trained
3. Lewis was in that retirement zone

fact is Wlad would have had a very hard nite if Lewis was at his best....Lewis is a true Great and the Klits ARE NOT

job biscuit (anyone got a punture repair kit)!!!

eh eh!!

sorry but Ocean's Eleven wasn't a real fight, Vitali fought Lewis, Wlad didn't, and you can make as many excuses as you want for Lennox but Vitali was getting the best of him once the stoppage came along, and although Lewis has a good resume, the Klitschko's have cleaned out the HW division Lewis did not, he didn't fight other top guys like Ruiz, Byrd, Toney, etc. at the end of his career, and when finally someone was able to go tooth and nail with him he decided to quit, the fact that Vitali retired and came back to have the post retirement career he has against mostly top opposition put's him on par with ANY recent HW champ including Lewis same goes for Wlad

Lol. Ruiz and Byrd? Are you serious?

The guys who were both very fortunate not to have 'L's next to thier names after fighting a man Lewis put away in one round?

And James Toney was good but not a realistic threat at the time, nor worth a great deal of money.

And Lewis quit at what? 37 38, that's not young and he did his thing without a lengthy break like Vitali. That break and what ever surgery, physio and god knows what elseio he had during this time did Vitali the world of good and obviously added years to his career but it really has nothing to do with who is better as you could see when he fought previous Lewis victim Briggs.
