A lot of people put Lewis over Usyk which I think is reasonable. However, looking at these tactics, I'm not sure they would work on Usyk. Blocking vision and guard manipulation works on static boxers, but Usyk is incredibly slippery and has a top tier ring IQ. So I think Usyk vs Lewis would be far closer than people think.
Lewis is the most underated heavyweight in history. He destroyed Tyson and had Holyfield number the entire time in my opinion. Travesty he does not get the reconigtion he deserves.
The jab didn’t destroy Mike Tyson there’s several simple ways to take the jab away. Don King destroyed Mike Tyson and emptied his bank account at the same time
I honestly think the only heavyweight that would have actually challenged Lennox Lewis would have been Muhammad Ali! Maybe… Joe Lewis. Lennox Lewis is hands down top 3 all time!!!
Explaining the punch 1 – wait for 10 years till your opponent is past his prime and lost his speed and touch of death 2 – still get caught with a couple of power hooks but dont go out because your opponent isn't the same anymore 3 – punch him
Lewis was a smart fighter, he always used his height and long reach to his full advantage. He avoided going toe to toe and fought from a distance. In my opinion Lewis and Holyfield could have easily held their own to any of the great heavyweights in boxing history.
This man is my hero was a masterclss boxer still my hero shame he never took his talent too train our young fighters in uk come back Lennox and clean up the heavyweight division AGAIN

It’s so dumb to say Lewis use lomas style of blinding opponents to change angles.
This video truly made me like lewis alot more 🤯
he mastered the jab but let's not skip his insane reach which created the almost unfair combo

I don't know why i didn't watch this earlier
Usyk is the greatest

Styles make fights. Prime Larry Holmes against a prime Lennox Lewis would have been a great fight.

Incredible finesse you said
Anyone who says Ali beats Lewis is a casual boxing fans only about the names.
Lennox Lewis jab beat Tyson because he fought a Mike Tyson 15 years past his best.
Can u talk about Ridik bowes, jab? Ps…
Mike tyson destroyed himself
He puts so much power into his punches he nearly falls over with them power punches 👊
Best English heavyweight ever 👊🏻🏴
Lennox Lewis
Manny Steward lennox would be a problem for any heavyweight in any era
I call lewis's cross, "a tall man's overhand".

Lewis is my 2nd best heavy. I just wished he would have defended ALL 3 BELTs and stayed Undisputed instead of giving 2 away.
In his prime, with Emmanuel Stewart as his trainer, Lewis would have destroyed Fury.
Lennox Lewis is the GOAT of Boxing.
There is alot of Sonny Liston in Lennox's technique.
Prime Mike Tyson beat anyone

It’s great to have really long arms! Lewis jab was a real problem
He couldn’t knock Tua out and was always running
Best ever, no question!
This man is my hero was a masterclss boxer still my hero shame he never took his talent too train our young fighters in uk come back Lennox and clean up the heavyweight division AGAIN
Probably the most underrated heavyweight of all time
Lewis was the greatest boxer after Ali. Period.
Lennox literally waited until Mike was on the end of his career to fight him stop this narrative that he beat a prime Mike Tyson
Most Underrated heavyweight of all time
The best jab he threw was actually against Vitali Klitschko, the power jab
