What kind of a boxer was lennox lewis?

Lennox was robotic at the end of it.... def a boxer-puncher. He had massive power and when he hit you, and was accurate, more than likely it was lights out.

Lennox also set up his punches more than anyone else I have seen in the HW division.

To give comparison- Riddick Bowe was puncher-boxer. More like a slugger-boxer. Riddick boxed when after he found out he couldn't blast away guys at the top of the division.

Larry Holmes was a boxer-hitter. Holmes wasn't a big puncher, he just hit you repeatedly after he put you in position.

Holyfield was a counter puncher-boxer. Evander was a crap boxer. But he had fast hands and countered you with heavy hands. This is why Evander couldn't win against Lennox- Lennox gave him nothing hit as Lennox was an excellently skilled boxer. And, when Holyfield tried to turn it up, when he could, he got hit and hit hard- so, it eased his attack.

Holyfield pre-Bowe was an excellent boxer. After the Bowe fights he slowed down, quit using his excellent footwork and his excellent head movement.

He was an excellent counter-puncher throughout his entire career. His controlled aggression was his calling card after he caught you in the exchanges. But as for boxing ability, he was average- Moorer had better boxing ability and skills than Holyfield.
