    Foreman's chin was titanium. Lennox's was, ahem, not.
    I do agree with this post, I think Lennox had a better chin than he has sometimes been given credit for though. Not iron but he took some good shots off Tua that would suggest he was not quite so chinny as he is sometimes regarded and that big right hand he took off Vitali, wow.

    Please, please, PLEASE do not compare Lennox Lewis in terms of a comeback bid with the Big Fabulous Destroyer George Foreman. No way, no way. One of the ONLY reasons Foreman accomplished that was due to his, as others have said above, ROCK of GIBRALTAR chin.

    CAN ANYONE ON THIS BOXING FORUM IMAGINE LENNOX LEWIS TAKING 23 UNANSWERED BOMBS FRM HOLYFIELD AND REMAIN STANDING

    Case closed. Old Lennox better stay retired.

    Agreed. Lewis was only ever floored twice in his entire career. Tyson, Ali, Foreman, Holyfield, Bowe etc have all been down more often than Lewis. I think its just something haters say cuz Tua, Rudduck, Briggs, Vitali and Tyson were all punchers who landed flush on Lennox and couldnt drop him.

    I dont think Lennox will come back though. He is too smart for that.
