one problem, bowe, holyfield, ali, frazier,...the action fighters as you all say. listen to them talk. really listen. it may not be fun to watch, but i can guarantee lewis, etc. will have their wits about them. should the klitschko's go and get their brains bashed in like these other guys for your entertainment? holyfield is still fighting. and I can't understand a word the guy says.
@90038jhon if it's all about not getting hurt, then boxing is not the right sport to do so. if the challenge is who gets his brain less damaged then you better play golf, boy
Klitschkos are boring as shit...Jab Jab Jab Jab Jab. Nobody wanna see that, people wanna see guys goin toe to toe. This is the reason why nobody will give a shit on the Klitschkos in 10 years but people will still talk about Iron Mike and the other 90s greats!!!
@nuk14 Lewis had a shaky chin. Nowhere near the best, but not the worst either. It's safe to say if he fought a prime Tyson his chin would eventually get hit, and the next thing he would remember is waking up with Larry Merchant's mic in his face. It's unbelievable how people underrate Tyson nowadays. If he didn't go to jail Lewis doesn't have a career.
You clowns. Lewis takes out Tyson and Holyfield any day of the week.
Look what an unfit out of shape did to a prime Vitali. He messed up his face bad.
Imagine what a prime focued Lewis would do to Vitali!!!!. DOn King and Tyson wanted nothing to do with Lewis in his prime ever since Lewis and Tyson sparred.
Lewis domiated Holyfield both fights and Lewis dominated Bowe in the amatuers and Bowe ducked Lewis in the pros. Lewis ATG top 5. Holyfield and Tyson not even in top 20
@dannylatics Not saying lewis was'nt a great fighter cos he def was but do you know what happend when lewis & tyson sparred as youngsters?? The words out of lewis's mouth were: I was hoping i wouldnt have to fight that guy(mike) anytime soon. The guys an animal!! Lewis is no doubt a legend but he got floored cold by Mccall & rahman so what makes you belive tyson or holyfield in there prime could not floor him?? & to say tyson & holyfield could not get into the top ATG top 20 is disrespectfull.
Lewis = Commonwealth superheavyweight gold medalist, Olympic superheavyweight gold medalist winning against Riddick Bowe, European HW champion, who holds pro wins over Tyrell Biggs Donovan "Razor" Ruddock, Tony Tucker, Frank Bruno, Tommy Morrison, Ray Mercer, Andrew Golata, Shannon Briggs, Zeljko Mavrovc, Evander Holyfeild, Michael Grant, Francios Botha, David Tua, Mike Tyson and Vitali Klitschko + hall of famer.
@dannylatics King offered Lewis $13 million to fight Tyson back in 1996, the biggest payday in his career by far. Lewis balked. Get the facts straight. No one ducked anyone.
Right, only unified the belts, beat everyone he fought, got Olympic gold, he changed his style most fights to suit that of his opponents, he fights nothing like the Klitchkos, if you don't think Lewis should be there then why should Tyson or Holyfield ? he was much better then both
Holyfield beat top PRIME competition AND was an exciting fighter. Everyone who pays attention knows Mike would've been top 5 greatest of all time if he didn't have a mental breakdown. Lewis ruled the HW division when it was bying. He nearly get's beat by the Vitali and retires before a rematch could happen. Beats washed up Holyfield and washed up Tyson. And above all, he's boring as shit. Just like the Klitchkos
Actually when bowe refused to fight him lewis went after Hoylfield, but he refused, lewis went up the ranks, so holyfield said he would for $20 mill, edventully lewis cud garantee it, but still he refused now asking for $25 mill, but edventualy it was mandatory.
@403766 Go spout your nonsense over at the weak Lennox Lewis videos. Stay away from here. Nobody's listening to you. You better have been glad Lewis never fought a prime Tyson, Bowe or prime Holyfield in his overrated career.
1) I was talking,to someone slagging of lewis on here!
Pmsl Lewis battered bowe olympics bowe scarred to ever fight him, hoylfeild also kept runnign and was still prime when they bloody foguht, and tyson also kept runnign giving up belts and millions not to face elwis.
Lewis beats em all hands down, now stfu and mind your own business.
@JDezi4 I think that at least Vitali Klitschko should be considered great. I mean he DID give Lenox Lewis the fight of his life. Lewis caught a lucky break in that fight because of that cut on Klitschko's eye. If not for that, Vitali would have won. Hell, he was already winning on the score cards but I don't think the fight would have gone the distance anyway. If not for that cut, I think Vitali would have scored a KO over Lewis within the next two rounds.
@JDezi4 exactly, Vitali had Lewis beat on all three judge's scorecards. The fact of the matter is that Lewis was being completely outclassed in that fight and got a lucky break with that cut that Klitschko sustained. So I agree with you, both of the Klitschko brothers should be considered great heavyweights, even though the heavyweight division is in ruins right now, there is no denying that thay are the absolute best out there today. They're winning fights the way they're supposed to, by KO.
Holyfield used to get to heavyweight around end of 87,about the time he ko'd braxton,I believed he was ready for tyson but tyson at that time would Ko holyfield so it was a blessing for holyfield that they met 10 yrs after tyson stopped fighting correctly as was taught to him by damato.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Holyfield was a Steroid FRAUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In his natural weight 188,he would NEVER do more then 3 with tyson of 1988 trained at the damato camp.Holy would be pissing in his pants in 1988.Tyson would break that 29 inch waist in HALF!!!!!!!!
they had a round at the trials for the 84 olympics and everyone who witnesed it says Holy won. Also i was 154 lbs in 2004. Then i decided i wanted to be muscular, in between work and everyday life i've worked hard and i'm now 205lbs with hard work and time on top of a good diet. I'm not on steriods and i get drug tested at work. So shove that in your pipe and smoke it. If you have time from licking tyson brown hole that is. YOU PRICK
He started the roids when he landed the first Tyson fight which ended up being Douglas/Holyfield. Then Holyfield ducked Tyson and Then Tyson goes to jail. Much like Ali when he was banished for 3.5yrs, Tyson was still dangerous after jail, but clearly not the special fighter he was before it.
You're a fool. Holyfield never ducked nobody. Especially not Tyson. Tyson was the one who threatened to pull out of the second Holyfield/Tyson fight unless the referee was changed. If Tyson was going to knock him out, then why would he care about how the ref calls the fight. Tyson was worried because he knew he couldnt intimidate Holyfield like he did other boxers. When he could'nt do that and knew he was losing the fight, he resorted to cannibalism.
holy started taking steroids in 1987.Ken sanders told my cousin who worked for operations at shae stadium in 1990 that holy was a juicer all his career from 87 on.and a heart problem????? HMMMMM,could that be caused by being a junk food addict???? NAHHHH.
Somebody forgot to tell Tony Tucker, Mitch Green, Bonecrusher Smith, Buster Douglas, and Razor Ruddock. that Tyson was Superman and would knock them out.
Tyson was a very good fighter, but he was neither superman nor unstoppable. I don't think he would beat Holyfield or Bowe in 1992 if he wasn't incarcerated.
