    This is an interesting thread where I hope to see a good debate between fellow gentlemen where we will discuss Lennox 'The Lion' Lewis's best 5 wins and then debate how Wladimir Klitschko would have done against them.

    1. Vitali Klitschko
    Steroid cheat Klitschko coming off a career threatening injury that destroyed him forever as a power puncher. Known as by far the worst of the two Klitschko brothers this proved to be Lewis's best ever win. A known quitter too.

    2. Old shot Holyfield.
    Steroid cheat Holyfield who was a blown up Light Heavyweight was coming into the Lewis fight almost a decade past his prime. Known as a serial cheat in and out of the ring old Holy actually has a win over Bowe who of course Lewis never fought.

    3. David Tua.
    5'8 fat and out of shape Tua came into the ring in an appalling condition. His fattest of his career. Lewis fought tall and won a boring victory staying on the outside and refused to engage.

    4. Utterly shot Mike Tyson.
    Totally shot and just released from prison after 5 years version of Mike Tyson was a pale shadow of himself. It was embarrassing yet sad to see the condition he came into the fight in. Not long after this fight Danny Williams brutally stopped this same version of Tyson in a much more emphatic manner.

    5. Hasim Rahman.
    Rahman despite not training properly for this fight after partying a bit too hard after just becoming the undisputed and unified HW champion of the World was taking out in style here by Lewis in what was described as "his peak performance" during his prime years.


    Adding a poll. How does Wlad do against these?

    Wlad wins against all of them bar his brother. 50/50 vs. Vitali.

    I agree, even if Golota was/is a mental midget, it's still a better win.

    You realize the vote is not on guessing your own IQ, do you?

    Hasim Rahman either knocks out Wladimir or makes him quit on his stool. By far Wladimir's toughest test.

    I'd have the Ruddock fight on any top 5 Lewis wins, and I think Ruddock would beat Wlad.
