I also wondered why Tyson vs Tua never happened. The same goes for : Tyson vs Ray Mercer, Tyson vs Morrison, Tyson vs Oliver McCall and Tyson vs Riddick Bowe. Maybe it's all down to Don King who didn't want to do those risky bouts. We all know Tyson opponents in 1990s, compared to Lewis opponents in that period. Tyson vs Lewis should have happened in 1996. But it's Don King who picked Bruce "the coward" Seldon instead of Lewis for a mandatory fight, knowing that facing Lewis was too risky then. We surely wanted to see the fight in that year as it would have been "Prime Tyson vs Prime Lewis". Too many excuses arise regarding their fight in 2002.

K2 Hbu I think McCall and Hasim Rahman didn't need another fight against Lewis. Their win by KO in their first matches made their name recorded in boxing history as the only fighters who beat Lewis. There are still quite a lot of people who question the greatness of Lewis because of his KO loses by these two fighters. They continue to point out those two KO loses whenever people talk about Lewis. Even his win against Vitaly Klitschko is still considered controversial by quite many people.

Dos grandes boxeadores

This was Lennox's optimal weight imo. He still looks quick, boxes more beautifully thanks to Steward and still got that nasty power.

Tommy fue un gran boxeador, lamentablemente sus errores le pagaron caro en su carrera...Lewis nunca fue valorado como un grande,fue subestimado,aun asi cuando perdió volvio y vengo sus derrotas..!respeto a los boxeadores que se la juegan en el ring!!

Very Good

Lewis was the greatest of his generation-no doubt about it! He had incredible skills & always did his homework on his opponent looking for weakness that he could work on. He had a great stiff jab-great hook-fantastic uppercut & a deadly right. He knew how to work the opponent to intimidate him-he could move as he used his feet to good effect & he moved his head. He was the consumate professional. I think the closest person to his greatness today would be Usyk as he is such a skilful fighter but obviously not as imposing in the ring but Usyk is fast in/out & he moves. Usyk tends to wear the opponent down-he's relentless with great stamina.

Great fighters. Boxe was better, back then.

Love how tommy satisfied with the stoppage from the reff 😏

Tommy flat the only way he could Lennox was at top of his game no noddy could hang with Big Then but Tommy went right at him that is what made him so exciting to watch did do some good work in that fire gains a lot of respect from big Lennox great time for boxing its how far it's went down hill.

Lennox Lewis showing a bit of aggression and passion in this fight, refreshing change from most of his fights that relied on good tactics with the jab.

Lennox is a fucking Predator ,so strong.

I respect Morrison as a fighter but I'm not a fan of how he tried to continue fighting when he knew he had HIV which he then stopped treating and became full-on AIDS. That was dangerous thinking and thankfully most people take the disease a lot more seriously. I understand that fighting was all that he had and he wanted to make a living but he could have treated his disease properly and then gone on the circuit as a motivational speaker or a boxing trainer. He is the reason that he is not alive today. RIP though.

His eye was cut can't see

Tommy just had too many demons to fight (drugs, alcohol, no direction). Would it have changed his career to not have those problems, yes. Would that have changed the outcome of this fight, maybe not, but we'll never know. Just a tragic story 😣

Lewis made all the US boxers look like boys, from Tyson and Holyfield down.

Morrison was at his worst here

Tommy is no longer in his prime here, a shell of himself. A prime Morrison stood a good chance at beating or even knocking out Lennox.

“ knocks out” 💀 where ??

2 iron chins. LL seemed impervious to Tommy's heavy fists that put others to sleep. And all 3 of Tommy's losses were by TKO, not KO. Nobody ever put out his lights, not even Mercer who got 6 unopposed punches while the ropes held Tommy up. Even after that, he was never all the way out. Not in this one either, and with Bentt, he was hungover, but never got lower than on his knees. Without the [stupid] 3-knockdown rule, he might have pulled that one out of the hat. Or not. We'll never know.
