Met Lennox in person on Venice Beach. I said what’s up Champ & he came over and chilled with me for a good 20 to 30 mins. He is a down to earth Boxing Legend. Class act. One of the greatest of all time!
I always liked Lennox Lewis he never backed down from no one he is a true fighter in every sense of the word.
I know somebody that met somebody that said somebody they know met him!
Wow how nice!!❤
I helped him with his math in high school and new him well. He learn how to box at the Cop Shop as a kid.
I met Lennox Lewis too I use to clip his toe nails and taught him how to speak Chinese and then we got abducted by aliens with watermelon size heads they drafted us into their intergalactic army and Lennox & i fought on planet zebulaun 1 won the war & was brought back to earth where I now own a coconut factory Lennox went back to being the great legend that he already is the champ !
Good to see Lennox staying healthy.
Yup. The dude doesn't seem to have any brain damage.
@RugbyPass81 Totally agree with You! Boxing is about hitting the opponent without getting hit your self. Mayweather is a master of the craft. In the end it is all about winning the fight and being able to enjoy some of that hard earned cash without a serious injury.
What a man. Didn't realise what a great person Lennox is, also so well spoken. Seems very humble and just a genuine human being.
Lennox is one of my favourite fighters
Great to see him looking so good
something we can all be pleased about .
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lennox is a class act, such a guy!
Such a coward waiting so long to turn pro in 1989 bringing a marshmallow chin, and waiting for tyson to get jailed and old. Tyson would have knocked Lewis OUT in 1991.
Quite the literal opposite... did you even watch the interview???
Bro what?? Boxers peak at different times. Lennox was not even at his peak in 92. Wasn’t until he got with Emmanuel Steward that he hit his prime in the late 90s. Was only dropped twice in his career so I wouldn’t say he had a bad chin. Both were fluke kos in vulnerable position.
@@Rumble225-qe7fy tysons peak was with rooney only. TOUCHE..
@@Rumble225-qe7fy He was slept by TWO guys,Oliver Mccall ,who tyson beat up in sparring,and rahman. I'd say his chin is below average. Lewis weakest liability .Not a good formula for success vs young prime tyson. 86-88
Pride of Canada?? That mans a british treasure I'll have you know 😅
He fought for Canada twice in the Olympics
He grew up in kitchener, Ontario, since age 12
He's a Canadian Olympic gold medalist. I'm glad he let it slide
So was Canada for a bit. 🤣
Well , when it suits, Britain didn't want him for Olympics but then claim him ever since..
That is truly one of the things that set fighters apart , the hands!!!
Would hate to get caught with one of those bricks.!!!
That mans hands are crazy!
Very true, he has concrete slab hands, with sharp thinking that comes with it.
This fight is just a business meeting for jake and Mike 😂😂😂
yes, but WORLD IS FULL OF FOOLS and netflix Mike and jake will make millions
Of course it is, and nobody is saying otherwise apart from the usual delusional fans.
@@djo-dji6018most new fanboys never even saw Tyson fight during his career. They are mostly MMA fans who play video games and never took a punch in their life
@@djo-dji6018it won’t be that way when someone gets knocked out😂 not part of the script
There’s a sucker born every minute
Plus he gave props the the great Jack Johnson
Dempsey
@@johnmourer5747Dempsey would have got beat. Too small for Johnson. Johnson beat the fighter that Dempsey would not fight no matter what. Sam Langford was his name. Fought Johnson almost to a standstill & he just shaded the win. & they wouldn’t give Langford a rematch. Btw I’m no Dempsey hater. I loved his story & career.
Mad respect for giving props to the great Jack Johnson. What that man had to endure en route to the title took superhuman mental, emotional and physical strength.
Jake better hope Mike don’t have a flashback of when he was young.
Mike better hope he can avoid getting tired after just 1 round.
@John-mn9rp THC lowers testosterone along with age.Mike's killer instinct won't be there.Also neither will his relentless attacks bobbing his way in for the kill shots.His legs will be slower as with punches.Jake will come in Jacked up as they probably will not test for roids.Not looking good for a guy that will be 58 at fight time I believe?He will be very handicapped fighting a 26 yr old Jacked Jake.
@@John-mn9rpit's only 2 min lol
@henryjohnson8106 I don't care. Mike Tyson will be 58, and all that weed he's been smoking for years won't help.

Here’s a man nobody can talk to about boxing. No one. Facts. The man did it all.
Klitschko scared him out of boxing
Meanwhile schmo is a nardwar wannabe
@@robertwadas you must be a casual fan of the sport to make a statement like that. Lennox Lewis was underprepared in that fight yet had enough in the tank to knock klitscho.
@@robertwadaswho won that fight again?
@@sundayaito4366Klitschko was never knocked out by Lewis. They stopped the fight because of a cut. Klitschko was ready to keep fighting...was even pissed when they stopped it. But, Lewis looked very relieved lol. If Lewis thought he could've beat Klitschko, he'd have fought him. There was big easy money in that rematch for Lewis, but he knew he probably wouldn't win. He wanted to retire being the undisputed, so he bugged out. Everyone knows, man. Everyone knows.
this is one of the best lennox interviews i've seen, lewis was totally relaxed. one of the greats, maybe even the greatest. i agree with ali, himself, jack johnson. to that i'd add larry holmes
Most definitely not the greatest...but definitely a class act in and out of the ring..always
@@Spacecowboy-e3n no, not most definitely, actually, that's your bias
@@grawakendream8980 actually its an opinion...like yours
@@Spacecowboy-e3n okay. you declare with absolute terms though so, confusing
@@Spacecowboy-e3n ONE of the greatest. Can we agree on that?
Met Lennox back in the UK at a Coxsone sound system dance, he is a true grounded guy, 👊🏾
The mighty Coxsone - this says everything about Lennox ⭐️❤️
I didn’t know he’s a roots dub and reggae man. Good to know
Didn't know Coxone was Still going. Lewis is the Goat
What really stood out to me is Lennox's hands...humongous!!
Nuh... small hands compared to arm wrestlers....google levan Sagishnavili and Denis Cyplenkov, from eastern europe.
😂😂 true
Bigger than the scmo’s head almost😅
calm down you wankers... his hands are closer to the camera and that's they look magnified.
kkkkkkkkk so do i ,i saw huge fist and i gut scared
Real truth
Lennox Louis was so good people dont even know how to rank him
Met you in Miami at the Daily years ago
You called me a warrior
Love you brother
One of the greatest to do it man
And he beat everyone he fought! Avenged his two losses and the BS draw versus Holyfield was avenged when he beat Holyfield the second fight! The Lion is Hall of Famer!
@@nikolaivista920 I know
Got to watch the Holyfield fights again
Been a while
I remember it close the first one
I muted the comment above you for speaking pure foolishness 😂😎
@@arroyo5born749 Good fights against Holyfield. But, the first one was not even close. Look at the punch stats and watch the first fight against Holyfield again. Lennox was robbed. All the expert analysts will tell you that Lennox beat Holyfield twice, just like Riddick Bowe did!
@@nikolaivista920 Got to watch it again
Just to re-experience it
Hey Lennox and Holyfield you can never lose
I'll check it out
@xsunflxwerlol941huh?
The real glory days of heavyweight boxing. Lennox always in a exciting fights. Loved it! Great to see him doing well, would have loved to meet him.
Watched him for years on Tuesday Night Fights on ESPN..before he won both belts, unbelievable jab, and world-class champion..✌️
One great Champion, although I prefer someone with an exciting style, rather than a boring dodger that wins a lot.
Big up Lennox! 🥊
After all the fame Lennox Stayed humble much respect to a great legend
even Jake??!!! lol
I met Lennox when he was 19 , we had the same boxing coach, nice guy.
Safety first! Teamwork second!
Lennox was no joke. Probably the best heavyweight of this era but very underrated.
100% true
Probably the best Heavyweight ever in a lot of real analysts eyes

Lennox is a Brit at heart 👊
He has zero connection with the UK apart from being born there.
Canadian.

A GREAT CHAMPION... AND A BADASS OF THE TIME
Lennox Lewis is right up there with the greatest. THE greatest in recent years. He’s a rare combination of brains and heart. Truly a class act. I met THE GREATEST Muhammad Ali, now I want to meet Lennox.
A great who has 2 1 punch ko losses..both scrubs, oliver mccall and Hasim Rahman🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@chincheck739 Yes people think he was the Great because he beat a washed up Mike Tyson late in his career.
Always liked Lennox, so level-headed and a great sport. Compare him to Bernard Hopkins, who just seems absolutely insane at this point.

Lewis is one of the best Top 5 heavyweight of all time....Ali,Joe Lewis George Foreman,Joe Frazier, Lennox Lewis...my top 5..Evander Holyfield at 6,Sonny Liston, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey,Rocky Marciano...my top 10 all together..
lol he is not top 5 lol
maybe vitali and wladimir too
Mike Tyson not top 10?
@@TheLieKillaJrit's not a wild take. Lennox was a beast. The only reason he didn't get a lot of love and attention from media or fans is because the British never warmed to him, because he fought for Canada in the Olympics and speaks with a Canadian accent. Had he 'belonged' to Britain or USA he would've got a whole different type of hype
@@Jimbojanko17 Mike Tyson is not a top 10 in my book also.
Lennox lewis went on the craziest run and is just a sweet guy. Im so glad he looks great still, guys in his gwneration already fell apart. What a legend.
What happened ? What was crazy ?
@@MartialFit50 he ran through every single super heavy, klitscko, Bruno, tyson, Holly field. Everyone.
@@stephenm3470 yes he did. I didn’t know what you meant by “crazy”
Wow he looks so different. When I saw the screen shot I immediately thought it was Bernard Hopkins. I can’t believe it’s Lennox.

@@grownman1017 for Tyson to knock him out? Absolutely I’ll take your money.
Pride of Canada? How dare you, he lived in West Ham you know and called Frank Bruno a coconut. A true Brit with a strange accent.
Yeah I could hear a whiff of English and thought I was going crazy because he didn't quite sound British enough if that makes sense, almost accentless like a Canadian
Nah, Welsh mate! 😮.
What a dude, though.
He didn’t correct the Schmo so…..
He has that strange accent because his mom and dad always spoke that Jamaican patwah to him.
Didnt he represent canada in the olympics?
lennox was my favorite boxer back in the day. He, like Usyk, did his talking in the ring
as soon as rhyans name mentioned as face of boxing, the look on Lennox's face
I really hope the drug test comes back clean...pretty sure it won't. I really liked Garcia, until his taunting in the ring against Haney (whom I feel is the better fighter). He already floored him..did he really need to keep sticking his tongue out?
Canelo was busted using PEDs as well

@@hundal45 okay sundeep
Lennox Lewis is a mega legend.. One of the best LIVING fighters alive
Absolutely awesome interview and interviewer.
Love Lennox Lewis watched him fight a lot in the 90s he is great.
Schmo impersonating Dennis Pennis! lol
people should listen to Lennox he's a master when it comes to breaking down fights
Too bad Lennox wasn't this approachable and easy-going back when he was Champion he was more of a arrogant Ahole back then...
I always liked Lennox Lewis. He was a great fighter and I also think that he is intelligent, a gentleman and has class. I also notice that his speech is still clear. As I am sure that many people notice, a lot of retired fighters, even very good ones and great ones, unfortunately have slurred speech although the press often does not comment on it until it becomes very advanced. It can sometimes only become serious many years after a fighter has retired. I have read that Lewis often plays chess, hoping that by keeping his mind very active, he might be able to avoid the symptoms of obvious brain damage. George Foreman, although in his seventies also still sounds good. He also tries to exercise his brain to avoid slurred speech. I have read that he would do things such as spelling words backwards in hopes that it would help keep his mind and speech in good shape.
May 18th...cant wait. Gotta love the schmo!
Great interviewer, straight to the point questions
Love the Lion Lennox Lewis! 🦁 🥊
Lennox retired while he was at the top and in good health. A wise move that many boxers failed to take. I remember Lennox saying 'there's always one more fight' when asked about retiring at the top of his game. Respect.
One of the greatest Champion ever respect Lennox
Lenox is one of my favourite boxer of all time ❤❤❤❤❤ him
Considering how many punchs and fights he's taken on. He looks great 👍
He quit at the right time, bright man.
The Schmo! Cracking interview dude👊👏👏👏
Lewis and Tyson.
Many differences. Had some prefight words.
Still they respect eachother as sportsmen and especially as human beings.
Respect guys.
I knew Lennox would be Champ when I watched him beat Tyrell Biggs
Best chat ive ever seen from Lennox, class..and the schmo is cool too
Crawfords name should have been brought up as face of boxing as well
Great interview
Schmo in prime form
Gotta love Lennox, he’s a legend of the sport.
The size of Lennox's fists - this man can still knockout anybody
I have to admit without envy. The Lennox Lewis fans are already doing well. I would like Mike Tyson to forget his career from 2000 to 2005. At the time I was happy that Lennox gave Mike another chance and what a bad mood there was before the fight, Mike was really something to be feared.
But now I'm being offered something that other boxers wouldn't do or Holyfield simply can't do it anymore.
What I find really amazing about Lennox is what good shape he is in. He doesn't seem to have suffered anything, but he too is one of the great legends.
Who else did a double take if it’s B-Hop
Never disrespect the lion like that. #1LennoxthelionLewis
I totally thought it was b-hop bro. Just for a split second
Guy asked some good questions and kept it going.
IMO Lennox is the GOAT. His resume speaks for itself.
Top 5 for sure, and he could have beaten anyone in the history of the sport.
@@djo-dji6018 If he could have beat anyone in the history of the sport (which I agree with), that should make him the GOAT, which I would also agree with
@joshuarowell7732 avenged those defeats by knocking them out if I recall correctly
@joshuarowell7732 Lennox came back and dominated the 2 who won by technical knockout. He's only been on the canvas twice. That is less than any HW in history. Included George Forman. He's virtually undefeated. Don't forget that George Foreman got dominated by Jimmy Young. A guy half his size.
@joshuarowell7732 I can tell now you don't know boxing. Jimmy Young beat Foreman 115-110. Does that sound like he barely won to you? Oliver McCall has a better record than Jimmy Young who is much smaller and lesser of a knockout puncher. Oliver has 38 KOs to Jimmy Young's 11 KOs. LOL Oliver cried cause he was so afraid of Lewis. Rahman ran from a rematch and had to get sued before he got back in the ring with Lewis. Riddick Bowe threw his belt in the trash to avoid facing Lewis. Does that sound like a weak chin to you? Ask Tua how good his chin is.
Foreman got dominated by Shannon Briggs whom Lewis destroyed, and Foreman was getting obliterated by Michael Moore before his lucky shot. Not only that, Holyfield dominated Foreman and then lost to Lewis. Lewis has a better resume than George Foreman.
Not a fan of his but he's the only guy who beat everyone who beat him. So he avenged his losses.
The 1 legend ❤
The pride of Canada he’s British just moved there at 12 and boxed in the Olympics for Canada that’s all.
Lennox one of the top 4 heavyweights of all times. 💥🥊
He has the biggest hands I’ve ever seen….Lol! 😂😂😂
Every ducked that man, until they couldn’t duck him anymore…then he whipped there ass…he’s one of the best pure boxers of all time and one of the greatest of all times.
Lewis ducked Vitali Klitschko .
He fought Mike & Evander when they were past their best… got sparked out by Rahman & Macall… nearly got beat by Bruno & definitely bottle Vitali rematch… last undisputed
Everyone that Beat Ruddock only beat Ruddock quicker because Mike Tyson fked up his jaw for 19 rounds.
@johnd1466 Mike was past his best when he got out of prison. Lennox Lewis is easily an all-time great.
@@UncleTermite I would have to at his age. Vitali was a beast and showed it when they fought. Lewis still managed to win in a fight where Vitali could have if they let it go, but it would likely have cost him an eye.
Ducked means when you didn't fight , klitschko he fought .and stopped. Jah. GUIDANCE.@UncleTermite
pride of the UK -- he spent his professional fighting days under the British banner
I love Lenox Lewis and watching him box. He was a humble boxer.
Not that humble lol did you listen to what he was saying?
Lennox is a giant , not many make schmo look like a little shrimp
Schmo is a little shrimp 🍤 dafuq u talking bout
Lewis is 6'4 , maybe 6ft5 that's a small giant
When Lennox speaks…….everyone listens…..and he’s the pride of London…..don’t forget that
It makes me laugh when people call him the pride of Canada, he's not Canadian and has never considered himself so.
He fought for team Canada so shut the fuck up
That's not true at all, he has dual citizenship and lives in Canada as of now.
Well of course he has dual citizenship they had to give that for the Olympics, as soon as he turned pro he represented Britain where he was born. He lives in Jamaica.
@@stevenknight1198
Possibly, I've seen a few of his friends on Facebook say they've seen him around Ontario lately. I thought he has been on record saying he only goes to England for business, I maybe wrong. He also has a residence in Miami.
he actually movved back home to somalia
I knew he was gonna whip Mike Tyson when they fought. I looked in his eyes and was the only time I knew Tyson was gonna lose. What a stand up guy
Because it was at the arse end of Mike's career, he wouldn't go near him in the late 80's
@@marksoutofzen
Lewis didn't turn pro till 1989, so could never have fought Tyson in the 80s.
Tyson was due to fight Lewis in 1996, but paid Lennox step aside money in order to fight Holyfield instead.
@@wainerollins2587 Lewis pro career started in 1989 and he fought 6 times in that one year! When I say end of the 80's I meant that time period including the start of the 90's when Tyson was at his fearsome best though.
Lennox was at the freak offs😂
If he passed by me on the street today I would never have recognized that was Lennox Lewis. Maaan he looks different
He didn't name Tyson as one of the greats ....Lennox believes Tyson isn't on that level? Still smudge aren't we Lewis?
Yes, i think so.
I think Lennox has resentment for Mike. Tyson was on cocaine when he fought Lennox which is why Tyson had bitten Lennox's leg. Lennox never gets proper credit for beating Tyson cause of how Tyson was doing drugs and not training much for that fight or any other fight after the Spinks fight in mid 1988. Hell Tyson was loaded on Cocaine in his 1989 fight against Bruno where he barely even threw body shots...waste of so much potential.
Because Tyson was a great boxer but not one of the greatest.
@@djo-dji6018 One of the longest title defense runs, multi title champion, then did it again when he got back from prison. Even Foreman in an interview puts Tyson as the 2nd greatest heavyweight of all time. Tyson greatest weakness was himself. After the mid 1988 fight against Spinks he started doing cocaine and drinking a lot. His next fight against Bruno he was actually high on cocaine in the ring against him, and should have lost but still managed to beat him. He was a druggy the rest of his career.
Lennex Lewis that man is a class act...
Vitali Klitschko > Lennox Lewis (he dodged rematch)
Why does Lennox answer questions like a politician lmao
For a strong beast, he was coordinated and had a good eye, accurate, smooth combos, a threat in any era, could be the best of all time.
Lewis is the man. He fought everyone.
Why does everyone forget about Rocky? Rocky Marciano is the only undefeated heavyweight ever.
Highest KO % and has more wins against other lineal champions than a lot of other fighters people put in their top 10
Because being undefeated means nothing, especially when most of your opponents were mediocre.
@@djo-dji6018 His opponents weren’t the best but they certainly better than what Mike Tyson faced in the 80s
Lennox was such a great fighter. I have to hold my nose every time I hear know nothings go on about how great Tyson was.
Looking forward to fury usyk, Paul Tyson I'm not too bothered, I love Tyson from back in the day but this exhibition is exactly that.
Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson. It's going to take a lot of years and a lot of boxers to compared to them two guys they are just two of the greatest ever and my two favorite
Lennox Lewis was a great fighter, its unbelievable what he achieved. I hope in the coming years he gets more recognition. Mike has always had that iconic status, and for good reason, but it can put other great fighters of the past in the shade a bit. I'd like to see a biopic about Lennox. He must have been the most avoided heavyweight of all time?
@xsunflxwerlol941 yep Lewis was ducking Mitch Green his whole career, good one 🤣
@xsunflxwerlol941 Holyfield and Tyson were old, but Evander still had a bit left. Tyson was done, pointless fight so agree there. Lewis fought young guys in their prime, Tua, Shannon Briggs and most notable vitali klitschko, all dangerous. Even Golota was coming of those Bowe ass kicking's. Ruddock as well, coming off those decent Tyson fights.
@xsunflxwerlol941 you can discredit any fighter like that, the fact is Lewis can only fighter who is there in his era. he was ducked by Bowe, Holyfield and Tyson in 96. this is documented fact. I'm a bigger fan of Tyson, Holyfled and even Bowe but fact is fact mate. regards
@xsunflxwerlol941 There is nothing to turn around mate, Lewis chased Bowe who threw the WBC title in a bin to avoid facing him, he chased Holyfield until 1999 when finally he got him in the ring, he chased Tyson in 96 who paid Lewis millions to step aside. go look it up mate, I'm trying to help your boxing education as you don't want to be looking like a fool now do you. regards.
Lennox has always been pure class and a great champion. Massive respect!
Lennox has always been that dude..
He's so right about Tyson
Lennox and the Schmo.............PERFECT 👌🏻
The 90's could have been the best hw era ever if Tyson hadn't gone crazy. Lennox, Evander, and Mike are three of the best ever but somehow we never got to see them at their best against another...
Love to all three...
Lennox is so awesome that I named my Badass German Shepherd after him😁❗️
Lennox looks great and is totally on the ball. Nice to see no current signs of CTE
I fuck with Lennox.. Damn I miss the 90s boxing
It's great Lennox was so good he didn't seem to suffer any brain damage still articulate and sharp
Wow, I grew up watching him box in the 80's and 90's. He looks so young except for the white beard. That's amazing.
Just imagine back in the days of Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Sonny Liston and Muhammad Ali, to be the undisputed champion was STANDARD. It was the norm.
He’s doing a good Grandpa Iron Mike look
wow he said Jack Johnson!!!! MY FAVORITE FIGHTER OF ALL TIME. when boxing went 45 rounds and fights could be scheduled weekly
