You're right about that word "destructible" ... because Buster Douglas proved a young Mike Tyson was VERY destructible... No wonder he ducked Lewis.
And I want THE PROOF that Lennox Lewis used to whupped Mike Tyson in sparring.

It seems to me that it was a WHOLE BUNCH OF LIES from someone in this forum that claimed that it was true. Some people believe lies that aren't true, you know?
Pretty good evidence comes in the form of an older Lewis beating a younger Tyson... You see, Lewis popped Tyson with endless jabs and softened his brain up... When the monotony of that was concluded, LL whipped over a tidy right hander and Mike took the 10-count.. Not that this hadn't happened to Mike before.. Lewis was beaten by lucky punches and won rematches.. Tyson was methodically beaten down like a raw amateur and refused a rematch.

Those are SPECULATIONS, NOT PROOF of the sparring sessions.

elmer give it a rest. Everyone knows that Kalan made the whole thing up about the sparring. The guy is full of crap. Just drop it and move on.

Maybe he did, when he was KO'd with one single punch and got away with it, thanks to the gift of the referee with the count. With %90 percent of every other ref. in the world, he would have lost that match.. Period.

He was also lucky that it was the end of the round. Otherwise, he would have been torn into pieces by Tyson.

You're full of crap... Why didn't Tyson continue sparring with Lewis??? D'Amato pulled him out. It was pretty obvious Tyson was the man
avoiding matches with Lewis and Holyfield, even though he was younger than them.

That's not what I read in Lewis first biography. Lewis said that some days Tyson got the better of him other days vice versa. Different fighters back then. Pre manny Lewis would get smashed by a pre prison Tyson. Manny Lewis v Rooney Tyson boy that would be interesting.

Tyson could never take Lewis. Remember Buster Douglas??? ... He was big, tall, strong, fast, and skilled like Lewis... But LL had even more of those qualities.
