Roster trade and brock lesnar vs lennox lewis

Well even if they do this, which I doubt. Lewis will tarnish his entire career by doing this. As a guest announcer or making any non physicaly apperance I could agree. But if he does this he will lose any respect he has gained, which took him a long fuckin time.

I doubt lewis would agree to a "wrestling" match, it would be a boxing match, like Gunn Vs. Butterbean.

But keep this in mind, look what butterbean did to Bart Gunn.

Butterbean could not KO as 52 year old Holmes, Butterbean in fact lost a clear cut, lop sided decision to Holmes.

Lewis who is getting stronger and better with age has ko'ed some of the best in his career. Imagine what he would do to Lesnar?

Why couldn't it be a shootfight like UFC style where you combine boxing and wrestling. I would take Lesnar in that.

lennox lewis is a good boxer, but he couldn't get to lesnar, not in a ufc style fight. if they tried ot make it into a brawl for all style setup, then he would win. there is no way his camp would let him lose if it was a straight up boxing match...he (as gonzo so eloquently pointed out) has way too much to lose at this point in his career.

personally, why aren't they worrying about the wrestling side of their product, wouldn't that get the old fans back?

One of the best mark out moments in WWE history was when Stone Cold punked out Tyson. They were in every newspaper and every newscast in America. That's why this is possible. Lewis wants to retire soon anyway.

The ONLY way Lewis could win in a real fight would be to make it a boxing match. Just watch any of the UFC's (I haven't seen any since #5), striker's ALWAYS lose to grapplers.

Though in #3 or so, there was a semi-pro boxer who lost, but his opponent had to drop out because his eye was swolen shut. That was pretty cool...
