Boxing World Reacts To Floyd Mayweather Claim Lennox Lewis Would Have Beaten Muhammad Ali

Boxing World Reacts To Floyd Mayweathers Claim Lennox Lewis Would Have Beaten Muhammad Ali

When current boxing legends who are not far removed from retirement bring up past legends and deceased legends, it gets people talking.

That’s how boxing fans tend to roll, alas.

Floyd Mayweather recently claimed he thinks Lennox Lewis in his prime would have beaten Muhammad Ali in his day.

Two legends of heavyweight boxing no less.

Here is what the boxing world had to say on the matter:

Ali is an icon of the sport.

Lewis too.

Lewis’ career has always been underestimated by many over the years though.

The two defeats he suffered as a pro he came back and faithfully avenged, too.

Retiring on top and the best in the world as well.

He got out of boxing at the right time, Lewis.

Ali did fight on too long, sadly.
