I happen to believe boxing is all about stages of career and a fighter may lose to a lesser fighter just because he isnt at his best anymore. There are several examples of this

I do not think that Singursat is better than Pac but he got him at the right time

I do not think Berbick is better than Ali but he got him at the right time

I do not think Rahman is better than Lewis but he got him at the right time

I do not think Willy Wise is better than Chavez but he got him at the right time

and

I do not think Manny is better than Barrera or Oscar. He just got them at the right time.

Thats boxing.

I don't really think Hasim Rahman got Lennox Lewis at the right time, it was more due to Lennox Lewis taking Hasim Rahman lightly. And Lennox Lewis got caught by a lucky punch and if they fought 100 times, they would never happen again. And again i fail to see the comparison here.
I always take exception when i read something like that. Cuz it makes no sense. The main objection in Boxing is to hit your opponent. Why is Rahman's punch lucky?
I mean lucky in a way that if they fought 100 times, that would never happen again. Because Hasim Rahman clearly isn't nowhere near Lennox Lewis's class. But i agree that Lennox Lewis deserved it for acting like an idiot, going backwards in a straight line then dropping his hands, what does he think is going to happen ?
