    I duno if Britain will ever get a fighter who will eclipse Lennox. I wish Haye teh best but he wont get chance to avenge his only defeat so he cant say he beat every guy he fought like Lewis .

    I can just about punch you for listing these 2 bodies...

    I never knew they were part/version of the WORLD heavyweight title.
