The calmest fighter I’ve ever seen in the ring, he just never panicked and always looked at complete ease even against the very best boxers of his time
Tyson will ko Wladimir in round 1, exactly the same fight as he had against Corrie Sanders. The problem is that Tyson is faster, better at dodging and attack more too than Sanders. So I will tell that Tyson will beat Wladimir and is the only wrong prediction here.
Lennox was a truly special boxer and fighter. He had it all. The only weakness he ever showed was complacency, but that only came about twice, and he made sure that those mistakes were rectified in champion fashion. He never ducked anyone in his awesome era and anyone who who beats Holyfield so comfortably twice is a great boxer.
He wasn’t really that good defensively. If he went up against someone like Larry Holmes or Wladimir Klitschko in their primes, he would’ve been a sitting duck for their punches.
As a boxer , he had everything . In fact he looked bored in some of his fights until something happened to snap him out of it . He should’ve fought Tyson much earlier , they could’ve had something legendary between them , like an epic trilogy .
Fury had his number even if he was past his best… people forget Klitschko had his up & downs in his career, I think his brother would’ve beaten Fury tbh
Lewis and Evander gave Mike HELLA RESPECT. Evander gave it to Mike over all these guys except for Usyk but Evander didn't say that Usyk would win he just said he didn't know.
Even though Evander has fought both (but the older slower version for Foreman) I think he was wrong to pick Tyson over Foreman. It's a stylistic nightmare for Tyson. Foreman would KO Tyson early.

He was wrong when he preferred Klitschko over Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson's peak was from 1988 to 1995. I do not think that Lewis would have defeated Mike Tyson if he had played with him during this period.

Lennox Lewis is the epitome of a gentleman class act always respectful and decent to people regardless of how crazy and foul mouth is opponents were. He's definitely the top 10 best heavyweights ever
Is grabbing and holding more scientific than head movement and countering? Are jabs and straight right hands more scientific than uppercuts and hooks? Is jumping back in a straight line more scientific than getting to a side angle of your opponent like Lomachenko? Is being limited to long range boxing more scientific than inside boxing and body attacks? If you answer those questions with yes, then Wladimir Klitschko was more scientific than Mike Tyson.

I wasn't a L. Lewis fan and didn't pay full Homage to his ability nd superiority as a Yunging , however Im older nd wiser now .. Nd Lennox deserves all Respect nd Flowers from me.
Lewis really thinks on his answers. The man needs so much more respect than he gets. Say whatever you want about this comment but I think Lennox is the best heavyweight ever, period. A resume loaded full of great fighters, any losses redeemed, great puncher, great boxing IQ. Lennox beats them all, all eras.
Tyson vs Klitschko is close, I have a feeling that Tyson is just too quick and powerful for Klitschko, and Klitschko had a questionable chin, he got hurt by guys that weren’t near Tysons level. Could also see Klitschko jab, grabbing Tyson for a whole boring 12 rds.
Wlad is one of the quickest heavyweights of all time and that’s not even my claim alone even Emmanuel said the same thing. That left hook off the jab is catching Mike so fast lol
yeah he got hurt by guys early in his career when his defense was lacking, once his style became heavily focused on defense with stewart he was much much better, wlad made a career on beating smaller guys like tyson where he just leans on and kos at range with very fast straights
I agreed with every answer! Lennox was not only a great boxer but a great boxing mind. I hated this guy so much as a kid because my mom had the biggest crush on him it’s a shame I didn’t get to cherish his career in real time. It wasn’t until about 11 years ago when I finally realized he was greater than my 2 favorite heavyweights in that era which was Tyson and Evander.
Lennox is underrated for no good reason. Reminds me of Joe Frazier before the internet started realizing who tf Frazier was. Lennox one of those guys who beat everyone’s hero and was looked passed because of that
Prime wlad was after sanders when he adopted that safety first approach and was virtually unhittable by most. I imagine Lennox thinks he's out box mike on the outside and use his classic clinch up close, wlad is also much bigger than Mike tyson and a modern huge heavyweight. But he has to pick one or the other, doubt he thinks its a given and 100% certain. I agree tysons aggressive style and movement and combos up close could be a recipe for disaster with wlads questionable chin. Would be a good match up to watch prime for prime. Its a shame these fantasy fights remain just that

@@slingshotdon Yeah it's mad I was 4 years old at the time of their first meeting and I remember it happening - it must have been very big news in the UK at the time for me to have known about it.

You’re talking about Tyson FURY… and it was when Klitschko was an old man
Lennox Lewis is the epitome of a gentleman class act always respectful and decent to people regardless of how crazy and foul mouth is opponents were. He's definitely the top 10 best heavyweights ever
Lennox was the first great big HW 6’5 and great skills with power
I would not say first, Foreman was already a unit !
To me it was Foreman at 6'4 ...
Foreman, Ron Lyle... Lewis wasn't the first, if you don't know boxing history better shut up
@@JulioLeonFandinho Lewis was bigger and a better skilled fighter. Seems to me you don’t know your history. Lyle wasn’t even a champion.
Prime Tyson and Vladimir, and the second one is a winner, what the hell😂😅
pRiMe TySoN got his head jabbed by James Tillis and Tony Tucker in early rounds lol Wladimir would outclass him 12-0
Lennox the lion Lewis. One of the all time greats of heavyweight boxing.
Agreed with Lennox
Lennox Lewis looks healthy, I’m glade for him he is one of my fav boxers period 💪🏽
Klitschko would definately beat 5,11 Tyson, he was much more scientific, modern, tall heavyweight than Tyson.
That means nothing respectfully. Mike would’ve gone to Vlad’s body, unlike Povetkin did
I think Mike beats Vlad, but not Vitali.
Is grabbing and holding more scientific than head movement and countering?
Are jabs and straight right hands more scientific than uppercuts and hooks?
Is jumping back in a straight line more scientific than getting to a side angle of your opponent like Lomachenko?
Is being limited to long range boxing more scientific than inside boxing and body attacks?
If you answer those questions with yes, then Wladimir Klitschko was more scientific than Mike Tyson.
Tyson beated people taller than klitckho and better than klitchko
@@stefanomandelli7484,name them
“Mike Tyson vs Frank Bruno”😂😂😂
He is the Lion! 🦁 🥊
Lennox was a lion of the ring , amaizing boxer with strong body nd clever nd cool mind in the ring , luv for him from pakistan ❤❤❤
These heavyweights off today can’t be compared too the heavyweights back then not even close
LMAO during Ali times most heavyweights were Usyk's size, had way less optimal diet and training capabilities. Ofcourse its not close lol
@@olehyurenko yeah....that's why foreman came back and captured the title at age 45....smh......those dudes were super-tough....they would smoke today's heavies
@@olehyurenko LMAO ur probably one off the ones calling fury one off the greatest off all time a few years ago😂😂😂
If you you were around in the 90s you would remember people said they were nothing compared to 70s and 80s heavy weights lmao 🤣 people aways think their era is the weakest but wants a new era comes in they look at the past one with more respect happened in the 90s era and will happen in this era to it aways dose.
Most underrated champion. Lennox Lewis is one of the GOATs. Big up Lion
Very easily one of the goats 🐐 👑
Я абсолютно с Вами согласен! Леннокс Льюис боксировал не в такой зрелищной манере, как Майк Тайсон. Он был расчётлив и где надо, даже осторожен, но он определенно был одним из величайших чемпионов супертяжёлого веса за всю историю бокса!
Lennox Lewis was the best of his era. What a fighter he was!!!
Prime Mike at 20-24yrs old probably beats prime Lennox but apart from Tyson in his prime I doubt anyone that’s ever boxed would beat prime Lennox not even Prime Ali would
@@jadandunkley171 Mike Tyson at 20-24 beats any hw of any era. Or any human being. He was a real k*ller.
@@jadandunkley171Tyson is the most overrated athlete ever and Lennox would BULLY any version of him😂 stop it Tyson never beat someone good all this pRiMe TySoN smack makes 0 sense😂
@@deanwinchesterr24 just watch 20 yr old Tyson whoop mfs asses and you will change your mind about what you said. As I said you g Tyson is the only one that could beat Lennox , otherwise Lennox in his prime is actually unstoppable
@@jadandunkley171 yeah he was whooping them cab drivers pretty spectacularly but that doesn’t mean he would do the same to an all time great boxer like Lennox😂
I’d kill for a Time Machine to have prime Lewis v. Prime Fury
Tyson "Da Big Sausage" FURY gets knocked out by Mike and Lennox all in the Same Night
Buddy Tyson wouldn't even be able to reach Fury, Lennox is too flat footed as well. Those old HWs don't stand a chance against the new HWs

maaan that last part, she really had him talking about him and Tyson fury 😂

Except for Frazier.
Wlad doesn’t beat a prime Mike either 😂
Bruno had no chance against Wilder.
@@cloudman8911 lol Bruno definitely had a chance against wilder what planet u on
Prime Tyson beats all of them
Where is the legend and king of boxing era the black superman Muhammad Ali 😢😢😢
Lennox uppercut was like setting up a volleyball serve!
Nobody could have beaten Tyson in his prime, during the 80's... But once he was sentenced to 3 years in prison, he was never the same boxer again.
Best Heavyweight I have ever witnessed.
Usyk
@@DonutsForever24Nah he is a cheater
@@Nonononono209 why u say that?
@@DonutsForever24 He used an inhaler between rounds for extra oxygen.
@Nonononono209 from what I saw that was debunked . It was actually a Jesus cross he kissed . Supposedly there's alternate angles proving this .
Great matchups by the lady interviewing too🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Evander the goat would kill them all.And Vitaly was much better than Wladimir.
No and no
@@Brentmeistergeneral101 yes and absolut!!
Go to school buddy : )
💯 per cent agree Vitali was better than Wlad
Evander is the goat ??? 😂

Wlad aint beating Tyson, he couldnt even stop Samuel peter, a crude slugger
He could ??
@@maximloos3739 he couldn't stop or beat a prime tyson Trust me
@@R.G.777.no i better trust the blueprint Steward would give him..
He did stop Samuel Peter though lol. Plus if you want to go that way, Tyson couldn’t even finish James Tillis, Bonecrusher Smith, Tony Tucker and Mitch Green.
@@H.K.5 Styles make fights, and Tyson's style is all wrong for Wlad
I used to dislike him before, now that Im older I do see and appreciate how technical and tactial he is and was. He was a monster
I wasn't a L. Lewis fan and didn't pay full Homage to his ability nd superiority as a Yunging , however Im older nd wiser now ..
Nd Lennox deserves all Respect nd Flowers from me.
Lennox was the best for a long time without the world knowing it
Lennox is a cool gent
Don't stop these. 11/10
Lewis is the GOAT
There's only one G.O.A.T it's da Original one period that holds that Title non other than Ali
Usyk
@@Nik29austria Usyk said Ali is the G.O.A.T
Lewis really thinks on his answers. The man needs so much more respect than he gets. Say whatever you want about this comment but I think Lennox is the best heavyweight ever, period. A resume loaded full of great fighters, any losses redeemed, great puncher, great boxing IQ. Lennox beats them all, all eras.
Tyson vs Klitschko is close, I have a feeling that Tyson is just too quick and powerful for Klitschko, and Klitschko had a questionable chin, he got hurt by guys that weren’t near Tysons level. Could also see Klitschko jab, grabbing Tyson for a whole boring 12 rds.
Wlad is one of the quickest heavyweights of all time and that’s not even my claim alone even Emmanuel said the same thing. That left hook off the jab is catching Mike so fast lol
yeah he got hurt by guys early in his career when his defense was lacking, once his style became heavily focused on defense with stewart he was much much better, wlad made a career on beating smaller guys like tyson where he just leans on and kos at range with very fast straights
I have a feeling that Klitschko is too good for Tyson because he’s not a cab driver Tyson used to fight 😂
Should ask on Vitali Klitschko.
Lenox beats them all.
Legend of the 90s🥊
I agreed with every answer! Lennox was not only a great boxer but a great boxing mind. I hated this guy so much as a kid because my mom had the biggest crush on him it’s a shame I didn’t get to cherish his career in real time. It wasn’t until about 11 years ago when I finally realized he was greater than my 2 favorite heavyweights in that era which was Tyson and Evander.
Tyson in his prime would wipe the floor with Lewis in his prime😂
Think on rudock the canadian boxer
Lennox forgot that Fury and Wlad already fought. That being said Wlad was at least 38 at that point.
Presume it's prime v prime
The context was boxers being in their prime
Lennox was under appreciated when he was active. I was one of those people, but now I can look back and admire who he was and is.
Vladimir glass chin not taking Iron mikes power and speed
And Tyson doesn't have a glass chin?
Lennox is underrated for no good reason. Reminds me of Joe Frazier before the internet started realizing who tf Frazier was. Lennox one of those guys who beat everyone’s hero and was looked passed because of that
No John Fury no man born from a mother could beat him
Lol
I guess Henry Akinwande was a science experiment considering he was able to beat a man who couldn’t be beat by anyone born from their mother.
I honestly think Lennox is the greatest of all time, he had the size, power and ring iq to find a way to beat everyone he faught.
I like Lennox's analysis. He gives the proper respect to Mike Tyson, nice.
Lennox maybe the smartest heavyweight ever, he knew exactly when to hang up the gloves
Ktitchco was winning until fight stepped
Wlad got smashed by Corrie Sanders. Doubt he'd handle Tyson style
Prime wlad was after sanders when he adopted that safety first approach and was virtually unhittable by most. I imagine Lennox thinks he's out box mike on the outside and use his classic clinch up close, wlad is also much bigger than Mike tyson and a modern huge heavyweight. But he has to pick one or the other, doubt he thinks its a given and 100% certain. I agree tysons aggressive style and movement and combos up close could be a recipe for disaster with wlads questionable chin. Would be a good match up to watch prime for prime. Its a shame these fantasy fights remain just that
Tyson got knocked out by Buster Douglas who wouldn't last 6 rounda with Klitschko
Sanders was a tall left handed fighter . Tyson was retired by Kevin Mcbride
@@msway751 he didn't train. Had mother, daughter & Don King making him feel worthless while robbing him & being hyped as indestructible by the media
@@justinpennington7682sanders was a journey man. And the discussion was a prime version. McBride was Tyson’s last fight. That’s not his prime
The master of jab
Definitely agree with Lewis list %100
Lennox all time champion boxer with sharp brain ❤
Mike Tyson’s fan are always delusional 🤣
