下周末在拉斯维加斯梅威瑟VS麦格雷戈的比赛，梅威瑟已经把自己和传奇拳王玛西亚诺（49-0，43KO）绑在了一起，梅威瑟目前的战绩是49胜0负26KO。
前重量级拳王伦那科斯.刘易斯说；“这是一场巨大的积累和炒作，但我并不认为这是一场真正的拳击比赛，因为麦格雷戈只是一个UFC选手，而不是什么拳击手。
每个人都想看到会发生什么，看看麦格雷戈是否会用脚去踢，因为在拳击技术上他根本就没法对付梅威瑟，如何去解决这个问题？49个拳击手都不知道如何去击败梅威瑟，现在一个没打过拳击的试图在拳击比赛中去击败梅威瑟，在一定程度上这是一场闹剧”。
最后刘易斯告诉英国广播公司说；“我不认为这是一场真正的战斗，值得让我跳上一架飞机去看它，除非他们付钱给我，让我对它进行评论”。
Lennox Lewis: Mayweather Should Not Be 50-0, Fight is a Farce!
The bout between five division world champion Floyd Mayweather and Mixed Martial Arts star Conor McGregor is not so much a superfight as a farce, said Britain’s former undisputed heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis.
Mayweather and McGregor go toe to toe this coming Saturday in Las Vegas — the unlikely but lucrative clash brought the undefeated former welterweight king out of retirement — but Lewis told the BBC he wouldn’t label it as a “serious fight”.
The boxers will battle at the T-Mobile Arena.

Lewis reasoned that as Mayweather’s previous 49 opponents had failed to find a chink in his armour there was little reason to believe the charismatic 29-year-old MMA fighter would find him out.
“There is tremendous build-up and hype but I don’t really take it as a serious fight,” said Lewis.
Lewis, who won Olympic super-heavyweight gold for Canada in 1988 but returned to the country of his birth England when he turned professional, cast doubt on whether Mayweather should be allowed to raise his record if he defeats McGregor.
Mayweather, who retired from the ring in 2015, is presently tied with another legend, Rocky Marciano, with a 49-0 tally.
“I wouldn’t count a fight like this as a ‘fight’,” said 51-year-old Lewis. “He’s basically boxing a guy that is a UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fighter and not a boxer.”
Lewis, who was world champion three times and is the last undisputed heavyweight champion from 1999-2001, conceded the fight would attract a large audience simply because there were so many imponderables.
“Everybody wants to know what’s going to happen. Is McGregor going to throw a kick because, obviously when he resorts to boxing and realises he is no match for Mayweather, what will he do? How will he get around that? No other boxers from 49 fights have figured out how to beat Mayweather — now a UFC fighter that doesn’t even have a boxing career is trying to beat him at boxing – I think it’s a farce to a certain degree.”
However, Lewis said he would not be one of those attending unless he was made an offer he could not refuse.
“I don’t think it is a fight that I am going to jump on a plane and go to see unless they pay me to commentate on it,” he said. |
