Hey great vid, thank you.

I just saw the "trash" stuff with Bowe, which I never heard of.
Can someone explain me why the hell he dropped the WBC belt like a trash ?

good videos. I watched them all.

Lewis was his mandatory and people say Bowe's handlers made him do that. I forgot who it is he wanted to make a fight with. I know it sure as hell wasn't Lewis though.

Funny thing about the Mercer fight is when it ocassionally shows the score cards and after all that punching that Lennox is doing the cards are still close making it fairly obvious that there's alot more to it than that clip.

Yeah they're just highlights of the best punches he landed, by no means do they summarize the fights. That's the reason i only put one round of the Bruno fight; he simply didn't land a clean powershot in the first 6 rounds.

That wasn't just a clean shot though it was a monster left hook... It was sick..

Be fair, I think you're after the "Lewis gets punched a lot" video that Barneyrub put together a while ago...a 'best landed punches' video wouldn't be made up of Lewis getting punched in the mug would it...

Thank you for the videos.

I've seen his later career, Steward-era fights so much, I'd actually slightly forgotten how quicker he was when he was younger. That's obvious I suppose, youthful speed, but that right hand was a cannon. You can see his technical shortcomings but a good punch like that covers a lot of faults.

So that's the way Bowe avoided Lewis... a shame he did not fight him.

The clips from Lewis-Mercer would also be a good fit for that thread here about how good Mercer's chin was...I've never seen any other Lewis opponent take shots like that and barely budge. Even guys like Mavrovic, Holyfield and Tua took backwards steps or were shaken at times, Ray just practically ignores them. Even sheer momentum knocked McCall back, but almost never Ray.

[DamonD]

How Mavrovic took that right hand in the 11th round I will never know...
And 3:35 of the second vid shows just what a tough bastard Holyfield was...is!

Yes his chin was truely awesome.

Even though it was one of Lewis' closest fights, as you can see from the video, i think Lewis landed more power punches on Mercer than he did on anyone else in his entire career.

It sounds even more impressive when you hear the punches, but i decided to put music under it because it's annoying to hear half a sentence of the commentators all the time.

Some real quality footage there. Lewis was a verry complete offensive package.

Agreed, and I guess a video of his defensive infighting skills wouldn't have the same appeal - but he excels in that area also (if the ref will let him).

Great video Chris, thanks. Forgot how completely Lewis destroyed Golata.

That's why it's called a Lennox Lewis Highlight Video.

If someone has this video, please PM me. My cousin who is getting into boxing was puzzled by me picking Lewis over him prime for prime. He would like to see a good highlight.

Edit: Oh, lol, I actually meant over Tyson, not my cousin

[salty trunks]

Its easy for a guy like Lewis to knockout opponents who stand in front of him. Someone should post up the vids of fighters who gave him a little movement. Theres only a couple. :lol:

He is right, you should never ever pick anyone over Family.
