Heavyweights: Lennox Lewis vs. Jimmy Young

Post by scorpio83 »

12 or 15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Young would be too slick and slippery for Lewis (trained by Manny Steward) to try to put him away with his big right hand. However, Lewis would stick his long left jabs on Young's face and land good right hands to take a decision if they were in their prime. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Lewis by UD. I think he stuns Jimmy a couple of times, but nothing happens.

Lewis would outbox Young behind the jab.

Put me down as one that picks Lennox by KO.

Due to the long jab, he's gonna able to outbox Young, and when you add in the power, he knocks out Young sometime later in the fight.

It'd be a one sided fight in my opinion.

Lewis too good; too long; too strong; too much of everything for Jimmy. Mid round KO if that's what LL chooses.
