Rank these 7 Heavyweights

Tyson
Holmes
Lewis
Vitali
Bowe
Holyfield
Wlad
This on the best day of there lives.

 

Prime Lewis had a suspect chin. Prime Wlad has power to hurt him.

 

Holmes
Lewis
Holyfield
Tyson
Vitali
Wladimir
Bowe

 

Though Larry Holmes & Lennnox Lewis are the most complete heavyweights of this lot, a peak Tyson would still have a very good chance of knocking them out. The only guy who'd last in there for 12 rounds with him is probably Vitali.

1. Tyson
2. Lewis
3. Holmes
4. Vitali
5. Bowe
6. Wladimir
7. Holyfield

 

1) Vitaly Klitschko
2) Lennox Lewis
3) Wladimir Klitschko
4) Mike Tyson
5) Riddick Bowe
6) Larry Holmes
7) Evander Holyfield

 

This just isn't true.

Bowe was an exceptional fighter on the inside, he'd have his hands full with Tyson but to say he'd be shredded is off the mark.

Holyfield edged him on the outside in their return fight, not sure about dominating - he's just not tall enough or long enough to do that.

He'd destroy Vitali like a ginger haired stepchild, wouldn't be pretty at all.

Swap Wlad and Vitali around and that list is pretty much bang on :good

:nono

The only obvious choice is Vitali - at the bottom.

Wlad above Lennox is laughable.

I love Wlad but I couldn't see him beating Lewis at all. He's just too reluctant to let his hands go (see the Haye fight) despite punching hard enough to get Lewis's attention.

I just think Lennox would smell blood and go right after him from the word go - perhaps stopping him very early, maybe even in the first round.

 

Lewis (just too big, just too strong, just too good!!!)

sorry to burtst ur bubble..wlad was nowhere near his prime when he ****ed up against sanders...and thats a fact...prime for prime lewis vs wlad is a very very close fight..if you think otherwise your a fool

 

lewis would KO wlad, im confident of that.

 

im not..and im a bigger fan of lewis than i am of wlad...and tbh at the min i cant split them...my biased saide picks lewis decision..but when im not being a biased tit i see it as a genuine 50 - 50 fight

 

We'll never know because Lewis called himself yellow and ran away at the first real challlenge.......

 

Primes, head to head...

1) Holmes
2) Lewis
3) Tyson
4) Wlad
5) Bowe
6) Vitali
7) Holyfield

4 - 7 are all pretty close though and I'd be fine with flipping any of those around. I've gone back and forth on Holmes vs Lewis head to head for years now, and I think Holmes just has a slight edge in almost every area.

To me, Tyson seems obvious at #3 though. I have little question that prime Holmes or Lewis beats Tyson 7 times out of 10, but I also have little question that prime Tyson would have beaten Wlad, Holyfield and Bowe. Vitali might be tough for him though.
