    If you look at the way Wladimir Klitschko fights and Lennox Lewis, they look exactly alike. Lennox would also lean on you the way Wladimir does, and They both had nad have Manny Stewart training them. Look at the style closely:

    Lennox had more shots to choose from, great uppercut and could fight in different ways. Lewis would destroy wlad if they ever met imo

    Lewis had a wider variety of punches, but yeah, the similarities are huge.

    I don't don't so. Lewis had a suspect chin too. And Lewis only threw the uppercut more but Wlad is a little quicker than Lewis.

    Lewis had a better arsenal, a better chin, could fight more than one way and wasn't afraid to slug.
    They're both tall fighters trained by Manny Steward thats were the similarities end.

    Very similar attributes and styles. Lennox was a more natural fighter though and was generally more aggressive.

    He's like a far more cautious - if not downright scared - version of Lennox Lewis with about a third of the range of punches. "Identical".

    I think Lewis would KO Wlad but the Jab would give him some major problems along the way, watch lennox struggle with Bruno.

    Botha almost had Lewis out on his feet in round one.

    That was a youhng pre Steward Lewis.

    Lennox should attack Wlad like he did Golota, just go for him and get him out of there.

    Wladimir is a better boxer than Golota though. And he would knock Lewis out if he landed, Lewis also had a suspect chin.

    could argue that lewis took alot more risks aswell but yes in the main i agree
