[fugaziuk]

hey guys im getting someone to put a lewis comp together for me and ive only seens a few of his fights (holyfield 1+2, tyson) was wondering if any of you could tell me what wuld his top 5 best and why?? cheers

[Chino]

Lewis vs. Oliver McCall 1
Lewis vs Hasim Raham 1
I would put those in the list just because I wanted Lewis to loose convincingly.

[WelshDevilRob]

Lennox Lewis against Razor Ruddock, Andrew Golota, Shannon Briggs, Tommy Morrison, Michael Grant.

Others that were very good are against Gary Mason, Tyrell Biggs, Tony Tucker, Frank Bruno, Phil Jackson, Ray Mercer, Rahman 2, David Tua, Frans Botha.

Of course his win over Vitali Klitschko wasn't his best performance but it was the last stand of a Legend as he was 38 and his heaviest ever but still was too good for the prime Klitschko.

[Lance Uppercut]

Lennox Lewis vs Frank Bruno was insain. back an forth action with both fighters getting hurt.

It was pretty much the fight before lennox adopted a safty first style.

Also his fight with shannon briggs was also very good.

[LBSCFC]

my favourite lewis bouts would be :

gary mason, tyrell biggs, derek williams, razor ruddock, frank bruno, tommy morrison, andrew golota, shannon briggs (a fantastic 5 round fight that sometimes gets forgotten), michael grant, david tua (boxing masterclass), hasim rahman II

Nice!

I think the Ruddock fight was very impressive, Lennox was devastating when he was in the mood to destroy.....like in the Golota fight also.

[Bookkeeper]

I am surprised Tua was not mentioned more, people wanted him to he the new Mike Tyson and rule the heavyweight division, he was the next big thing and Lennox shut him down, I thought that was Lewis best victory

[fugaziuk]

thanks guys - i se there are quite a few to choose from

[ArawakWarria]

Lennox Lewis

vs. Ray Mercer = His most gruelling & exciting fight.

vs. Frans Botha = most tremendous KO (lifted him off the ground)
vs. Golata = quickest blowout
vs. Michael Grant = funniest fight
(you can see all three of these in about 10 minutes)

vs Shannon Briggs = where he shows his true pedigree. They thought this fight would be close...

vs. Vitali Klitschko = biggest comeback from adversity (watch closely; it's sloppy, but compelling)

I know, that's more than five, but have fun!!!

Because the fight was pants Tua kept plodding along looking for one left hook in fact i thought he was rubbish in that fight, and Lewis just pecked away at him with left jabs and the occasional right hand the fight was a snoozefest.
