It is said that a fighter’s prime years are often hard to pinpoint.

Others like Lennox Lewis late bloomers and develop their prime later in the career and life.
The two fought in an now iconic heavyweight title fight where Lewis won by knockout.
But even after all these years perhaps a slight bit of — pinch of salt from Lewis — on why the fight didn’t happen sooner:

But the fact is though Lewis won when the fought.
In some fashion too.
Both will always be boxing legends and icons of the sport.
