Lennox Lewis v Greg Gorell 1989 Boxing

Various classic sports from the early 80's onwards

Lennox was awesome here. Seemed to have even more speed and variety than later in his career, but maybe less power. Opponent was brave and tough!

[@bensmithkent22]

Lewis here was like the weight usyk is. He bulked up under steward to aid his balance and reaistance at the expense of speed

Great tomato can for Lewis. Gorell had sub-par offensive skills.

He was right at the start of his career - what would you expect?

@@tullochgorum6323 I'd expect him to fight tomato cans & trial horses to pad his record. What would you expect?

@@presence5426 He was a kid with no professional experience. What any decent manager does it put them in with durable journeymen to give them some ring experience. I guess you'd rather they'd put him in with the top guys who'd have damaged his health? Given his storied career, it seems to he that he was well handled.
