    If you think lewis' jaw was glass then you must know less about boxing than I thought.
    Lewis was knocked out by two different journeymen while in his prime. I can't think of another heavyweight one might argue is great of whom that is true. Can you?
    Journeymen?

    So Rahman is a top contender when you're dealing with Wlad but a journeyman for Lewis? Funny.
    Laughable innit. A 34-2 journeyman
    LOL, 34-2 tells you something? So Chavez jr must be a legend at what 44-0? Records without context mean nothing. His biggest win going in was who exactly? Sanders? He'd been drilled by both Tua and Maskaev before that fight. Rahman is a journeyman.
    He was beating both Tua and Maskaev before being stopped, but regardless, losing to those 2 does not make you a journeyman. Beating Corrie Sanders (who levelled Wlad) does not make you a journeyman.

    So was JCC a journeyman at 44-0. Not being alegend and being a journeyman are not even in the same ball park. Journeyman do not get to 34-2

    Chavez jr has! Marco Rubio was 34-2-1 at one point. The sport's history is LOADED with guys who started out like that and then fizzled at the top level and went into declines.

    Wlad and Lennox are a lot alike. Sure Lennox had better talent to test himself against, but Wlad has fought everyone he can and beaten them. Both men took their eyes off the prize at a few points in their careers, but they regrouped and were better fighters because of their losses.

    But if were talking about Lennox coming back at 45 and fighting Wlad or Vitali. I just don't give him a good chance because he's been retired for so long and hell the guy retired on top he's not coming back, why worry about it?

    Lennox was a great fighter but he's retired now and he'll stay that way. Wlad is in his prime, he's going to be around for a few more years I think boxing fans should try to show him some respect.
