Kurang seru😂😂😂
2 great strong athletes tearing themselves yet till now no knockout good fight ….hard to see which Is weaker than the other …lewis is taller and has long arm one of his good defenses
Усик рядом не стоит, а со стороны сопливый смотрит…
Petarungan kematian 😂. Tembakan yang sangat kuat
2 legendary boxing 👍👍🔥
Hoolyfield winer
Lennox and Fury have a similar style and Hollyfield with Usyk in some way the same. Both undisputed in nowadays and then fights can be ended to draw,wow,what a similarity
Who's here after Usyk vs Fury?
Here right after Usyk became Undisputed 👑🏆
Evan is the winner of this fight
They cheated him
Watching this undisputed fight just before Fury v Usyk undisputed fight… 🥊
Holyfiled got robbed 😢 he was better
Two late bloomers. Evander was pushing 40 here and Lennox 35. And this is prime for both. Specially Lennox.
Both of these great champions would dominate boxing today
Evander won this but the draw was in mind
Mfs don't realize how string Evander was and powerful and quick hands
What seems very evident is how hard it was for Lewis to land a good clean shot on Evander, he is really good at avoiding getting hit. I actually think Bowe handled him better than Lennox.

That was justice for Lennox. He was robbed of a decision by the partisan USA judges in the first fight.
Anyone who knows boxing knows Holyfield was abusing steroids for years.
Lennox lucky to win this fight, Holyfield was robbed. Lennox struggled with a former 175lb fighter
Ninguno de los dos fueron como Tyson
Ambos esperan a ver quien ataca para lograr dañar y de esa manera desgastan menos energía. En cambio tyson imparable buscndo a como pinte dar los mejores combos
Both of them would easy beat a Tyson Fury or A.J.
Holyfield pelío con mas fuerza cuando se enfrentó a Tyson….
😂😂
9:15 Lennox the best weaver I ever watched this mf sees everything coming how u duck that
Never likedlewis a bit, evander for ever❤❤❤
assustadora a capacidade de ambos de aguentar todos os golpes em pé, coisa linda de se ver essa luta
lennox is gay for hugging his opponent too much
Evander dirty rat he hit with head
Holifild walczący z tysonem jak Luisem! To Holifild by wygrał! Pozdrawiam
Holly field won that fight.
Lewis just too big and too strong. Holyfield had him hurt a few times but just couldnt finish lewis. This same fight 5 to 7 years earlier, holyfield wins, i think.
Holyfield was robbed in this fight. Lewis would tie up, grab and lean on Holyfield the whole fight, while the camera's angles only showed Lewis hitting Holyfield. And a competent ref should have taken points from Lewis and perhaps disqualified him. This is not a champions performance, but a scared and unprofessional tactics.
Lennox Lewis is a complete bum without abusing the clinch
Once Holyfield came off the juice he was toast
thumbs up for Evander holyfield …nobody can face lennox lewis
Lewis definitely won the first fight and in the end Kalma caught up with Holyfield, no matter how you look at this fight, Lewis should of been undisputed in the first, I love boxing but still we see this corruption going on with judges panels. Never the less, two absolute warriors and legends of the sport. Both achieved amazing things from where they came from rags to riches 🙏
Holyfield
