Who would win: Prime Lewis or Prime Usyk?
There's a common problem when people judge Usyk they see him as stationary like some sitting duck, what Usyk has proven is he's absolutely progressive as a boxer, by this progressive logic Usyk would adapt to these uppercuts..who knows though.
I agree with Lewis.
Good point if he landed that uppercut fury landed it would have been over
Nobody is beating usyk perhaps except Ali
Sledgehammer
Lewis is one of the all time greatest as he Faught all superstars in his era and beat all of them. But unlike tyson and Ali , there is no prime Lewis in my opinion . His performance were consistent through out his career .
He’s not lying
Lennox overestimates himself, although he is a genuine great of boxing.
He was learning his ropes when Tyson, Bowe, and Holyfield were reigning heavyweight boxing. When Lewis started his reign Bowe had almost retired, Holyfield and Tyson were on the decline from their wars ( and Tyson's own issues).
Tyson and Holyfield fought the best (or near best) version of Lewis, but not vice-versa.
Lennox Lewis is arguably the most underrated heavyweight boxer in history. He fought at a time when there were very good heavyweights, Tyson, Holyfield, and even the "white hopes" Morrison and Klitschko. Lewis beat them all, most by either KO or TKO, and he avenged the only two loses on his record.
Lennox Lewis wishes he was the GOAT behind Muhammad Ali. But he's not.
Lennox Lewis vs Big George would be good fight both in their prime time.
In Lewis day, fighters REALLY went after each other, todays heavyweights are more opportunistic, kind of boring to watch.
That last fight with Usyck and Furry was like watching paint dry.
Lennox Lewis was a very technical fighter and is the original OG
Lenox is my Champion all day every day.
Lennox would still beat usyk
What is this guy smoking. Evander holyfield is nothing compared to Usky. Just the same size. Usky is a really good boxer. Holyfield is a brawler. Usky would beat all if these sloppy old school boxers
Lennox was one hard man one of the best Heavyweight ever his record was unbelievable the two fighter he lost two he got back in the ring with them and done a number on them unbelievable
The golden era of pure skilled fighters was in Lewis era. Morrison , Holyfield etc
The Kiltscho Bros woulvd prevented Usyk rise since they are all from Ukraine 🇺🇦 but Usyk is the Best of his Generation thus far
Lewis woud probably fight him after his prime like he did to many great boxers😅
Can't compare no one thought usyk would beat who has ..
The strongest is Vitali Klitschko
Lewis is just a bigger stronger usyk.
That would be an actual good fight
Lewis is underrated
Lennox Lewis in his absolute prime was the Greatest Heavyweight of all time.
He’s just being honest, guys.
The Pugilist "LION" specialist
Didn’t Lewis get chinned twice by fighters whose ability were less than Usyk, or even Anthony Joshua/Tyson Fury? Didn’t he get outjabbed by Frank Bruno?
He’s comparing Usyk to Holyfield, when Usyk has a greater legacy than Holyfield at both weights that they competed…. prime 221 Usyk against prime 252 Lewis, I’m taking Usyk.
Lennox kills everyone, then invites they're family members to dinner.😂
If David Tua lasted aginst you who didn't sustained any significant damage and Tua was passive 90% of the time, Usyk was the opposite, he was very aggressive and more a way more technical boxer than David Tua so Usyk would have no problem going the distance and has the chance of beating you in the scorecard though
Lennox lost how many times? Don't see usyk loosing to hasim ram
Lennox could compete in any area and win he rematched and beat the guys he lost to in better fashion call me crazy but him and Ali would be very 50/50
A proper heavyweight with power and technical ability like Lennox would have destroyed the current crop of heavyweights. .
Lewis – "Being humble is not about me"
LENNOX is delusional, like a male version of clarissa shields. There are many Boxers who can best lenniox in his prime. Usyk 100% wpuld have beat him
Lennox Lewis absolutely right….Lennox Lewis mean uppercut from any hand, mean left hooks and mean right hand would have beaten Usyk.
im sad that nobody mentions ray mercer
Whenever the greatest heavyweights are discussed, Larry Holmes should always be in the conversation. His record speaks for itself 22 consecutive title defenses, 44 knockouts, and at one point, an incredible 48-0 record, falling just one fight short of matching Rocky Marciano’s undefeated streak. Holmes finished with a remarkable 69 career wins, solidifying his place among the all-time greats.
He was the perfect blend of Muhammad Ali’s movement and George Foreman’s power. Holmes could outbox his opponents with skill and precision or knock them out with either hand. His jab was the best in heavyweight history—sharp, punishing, and nearly unstoppable. His technique was on another level, and he had the toughness to take a punch and come back even stronger. With power in both hands and the footwork to command the ring like Ali, anyone who truly understands boxing knows that Larry Holmes was one of the most complete heavyweights to ever step into the ring.
I wouldn´t be so sure about Lennox beating Usyk. Lennox is surely bigger and stronger, more devastating punch, but Usyk would use his strenghts – agility, slickness, cardio. It would be very interesting fight.
No man would stand up to your uppercuts
100% right
amazing boxing brain
when lennox lewis was in his prime, all the boxers he beat were already past their prime. the only one he fought that was in his prime was rahman. and rahman knocked him out cold
Lewis could also take a beating… The heavyweights today are weak
MODERN BOXERS WOULD OF NOT STOOD A CHANCE AGAINST ANY OLD BOXERS..FACT! MIKE TYSON WOULD CLEAN EVERYONE UP FAST THAT WE HAVE NOW!
