bad ring iq? he out boxed lewis for 6 rounds, and witherspoon and was winning by miles against bonecrusher before he lost
his ring iq was very good, if fights were 6 rounds he'd have been an unbeatable champion
He did indeed lead comfortable going into the tenth against Bonecrusher, but he was not out boxing Lewis; that is a myth.
I was there and although I went as a Bomber supporter, most of the people I went with wanted Lennox to win.
Bruno was edging it, but at no time were any of my friends concerned. The fight was close enough for Lennox fans to think 'it will be only a matter of time, until Lewis strikes'; and he did with over five rounds to spare!
The 'outboxing' thing makes me chuckle, it is nearly as silly as when The Truth pointed out he landed 21 punches to Tyson's 19 before their fight was stopped in a little over 90 seconds...
