    Lewis was ancient and under-trained, in his last bout against Vitali - hardly the ideal benchmark.

    Lewis was bigger in physical stature than both Bruno and Rahman.

    I accept you have your position, but I can't say that you've really supported it with strong and consistent evidence.

    I feel the same way about your argument. Cheers.

    Sure - I guess you "feel" a lot of things you can't actually explain, whereas, I've already broken down your rather weak case - with your counterarguments being even weaker or non-existent.

    Cheers.

    Sorry you feel so self indulgent. Pat yourself on the back anytime you like.

    cheers

    I don't, and I will.

    How many times had Wlad been knocked down compared to Lewis? We know that Lewis took big punches without going down against like Briggs, Mercer, Vitali or Holyfield. What big punches did Wlad take ? Can you elaborate on this?

    Prime Wlad would be far too good for Lennox. Wlad never lost in his prime, and is a top 2 all-time heavyweight. Lennox on the other hand is a 90s hypejob who lost to Oliver Mccall.

    Pre Steward Lewis gets stopped early.
    Post Steward Lewis fights a skillfull fight with Wlad in the first couple of rounds and then the atomic right cross lands, resulting in Wlad getting dropped and unable to rise back on his feet.
