Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
I see Lennox winning a boring, one sided decision.
I don't see Lennox knocking out the extremely careful Joe Bugner.

lewis would be too big and strong for bugner.
it would be boring with lewis staying at distance and buger staying defensive so he wouldnt be caught with a big shot

Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
Too big? Bugner was about Lennox's height and while light early in his career showed in the 80s he could go up to the 240s like Lewis did and be solid.Adamj1987 wrote:lewis would be too big and strong for bugner.

Bugner's jab would give Lewis fits but he wouldn't fire it enough. Lewis in a 9-3 or 8-4 decision in a mostly boring fight with a few heated exchanges every now and then.

lewis's frame is a lot bigger than bugners
Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
Bugner was 6'5 230. Here's him fighting Ali. He doesn't look fat just boring. Nol to say he was a bad fighter:Adamj1987 wrote:bugner wasnt solid he was either fat or lost some speeddempseyfire wrote:Too big?

Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
why is it always a prime lewis versus a prime contender?
make this shit more interesting, the Lewis that beat Frank Bruno vs a prime Joe Bugner, would be a real give and take fight

I think you've summed it up well there.Adamj1987 wrote:lewis would be too big and strong for bugner.

I see a distance fight with a unanimous decision for Lewis, with few fireworks to note.

Lewis was very reckless & aggressive pre McCall 1.

As mercman points out, that's just not true. Bugner was a very big guy.
Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
The Lewis that fought Bruno vs peak Bugner
that would be a cool fight. I think Lewis JUST wins, but
boy Joe would make it interesting, provided he went at
Lewis and worked behind his jab. I think it is Lewis's power
that would slow Bugner up and take the fight, but a good
stiff and acttive jab is the answer to Lewis in my opinion.
Which is why I think he struggled vs Bruno and at times to
Tucker. And which is why I think Holmes, Ali and...Bowe
would make him work hard all nigh.

Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
Speaking of Bugner....anyone got video of Bugner when he made a comeback in the 1990's? I couldt believe how good he was, getting the Aussie title and all in his 40's and 50's.
Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
I have some beta tape my grand father took of his 80s fights.
Have to dig them up. I do have some on DVD, yet to watch
though...

Kym, I enjoyed alot of the Patterson fights you put up on YouTube, it would be great if you could do the same for Bugner. Myself, I wanna see the Bugner-Mavrovic bout.

Sorry, I'm not good with names. But thats the fight I was meaning.
And Kym, that would be FANTASTIC!
Re: Prime Lennox Lewis V Prime Joe Bugner
I do not have the Mirovic - Bugner fight.
Collins do you have it in your extensive collection ?
will it be a Zendo59 addition?
