I don't know how Tyson smothers Fury and knocks him out with Fury's skill and tall big heavy manhandling body...6'7" Wilder couldn't knock Fury out with his awesome power.


Iron Mike's rib punches would have done him in.

Get what you're saying but "peak, focused" Lewis got dusted a couple of times. Or was he only peak, focused when he won and fought well? Great fighter with skills to beat anyone. Also the ability to get dropped by anyone. There's a reason he ducked/avoided Bowe. Fury is much better, more skilled than Bowe but would put similar pressure. Would've potentially been a great, great fight. I've got Fury though. Really impressive fighter.

You must be a new boxing fan. Peak focused Lennox Lewis was way better than Fury.


Honestly I’m not sure there are any heavyweights ever that are way better than Fury. His size and length added to his completely unorthodox style would have given anyone fits and Lennox was always very timid against fighters that he couldn’t get a feel for.

Bowe would be a very hard out for Fury. People forget what a beast Bowe actually was. He had an insane reach and good height and was an awesome inside fighter which tall rangy fighters usually aren’t. Bowe’s downfall was when he built his mansion and put a kitchen in the master bedroom (yes, he actually did this )

He kept coming into fights in worse shape and unprepared after he did that. Riddick Bowe could fight. Bowe became such a mess Eddie Futch literally walked away as his trainer and said he was a lost cause and had quit taking the sport seriously.

Wilder is not a boxer, he's an athlete with a hell of a punch. The last 5 to 10 years heavyweights have been tragically bad.

Wow! Getting knocked down multiple times by Wilder is a tell that Fury would not be top 10 in the 1990s. Wilder is not a boxer.

Just shows you how far boxing has fallen when Fury is the champ. He'd have a tough time beating Chuck Wepner (The Bayonne Bleeder) back in the day - Google him younguns.
As for Mike Tyson, Fury wouldn't last 2 rounds.

Ali, Frazier, Foreman, would all destroy Fury.

Lewis was knocked out by two fairly unremarkable fighters and ran from a rematch he cheated to win and he knew he would lose against Klitschko

I'll give you McCall, but Rahman was a Buster Douglas style fluke.

Happens to the best, if you don't respect your opponent

He fought him 6 months later, and destroyed him.

he cheated to win


This old myth again. Just like Fury cheated Wilder, am I right?



quote:

ran from a rematch
He took a beating in the Vitali fight, and probably didn't want to put his body through it again.

If they fight 10 times, Lewis wins all 10 against Vitali Klitschko. . .but they all go down the same way.

He didn't want to take the same beating.

Doesn't mean he doesn't rearrange Vitali's face in all 10.

Is that a bit more clear for you?

Occam's Razor. One man was furious the fight was stopped. He was winning the fight on the scorecards. His opponent refuses to take the rematch.

Every reasonable person knows what happened. Unfortunately this happens in boxing

Exactly.

quote:

When is that not the case in a stopped fight? Seriously?

quote:

He was winning the fight on the scorecards.
And he was effectively blind. That is why Lewis was destroying him when it was stopped. He was winning 5 and 6, because Vitali was effectively blind.

If the fight continued, how do you see that shaking out? Vitali turning into Rutger Hauer in "Blind Fury"?



quote:

Every reasonable person knows what happened.
Vitali won the early rounds, got severely injured, and was getting blown up because Lewis could see and Klitschko could not.

Crowd knew he won. Judges knew he won. Lewis knew he lost his fight and took the coward's way out.

Guys who won the fight honestly want to settle it in the ring. The judges had it 58-56 Klitschko.
Klitschko also took the fight on only two weeks notice and with a normal amount of training time should be expected to be even more dominant.

Lewis wanted none of that
