    Give me a time stamp of Lewis purposely thumbing Vitali and then "using" his dreads to open the cut. Because it never happened. Do you have any idea what you're talking about ? Lewis's hair was literally tied up in a bun and that would not explain the 3 other difficult gashes that Vitali received

    Even if Lewis DID use his dreads to open Vitali's cut, it would mean that Vitali's skin is so thin that someone's hair could cut it.

    Someone with skin that thin would have no business becoming a boxer, because he'd lose all of his fights on cuts.

    Wilder catches Lewis trying to get on the inside and puts him to sleep

    Never happen because Fury is risk adverse, to put it nicely.

    Obviously Klitschko was past it at 39. He looked it against Jennings

    anyone can see the thumb if they aren't watching through brit glasses. i have no clue how to do **** like that on a computer and no interest in learning. lmao, lewis used his hair to open it up, just like Bramble did with Mancini in their first fight. talk about having no idea what one is talking about, you are the epitome

    You are one of the few who will admit that then.

    No Lewis tagged him and the blow glanced off. Not Lewis's fault. Besides, the eyebrow cut that Lewis caused from that right hand is not the one that stopped the fight. Thats actually a misconception. The cut that made the doctors stop it was an entirely different cut on Vitali's eyelid. The doctor saw the injury was causing impaired vision and called it off.

    Also let me see a video of Lewis using his hair to open up any of Vitali's 4 different cuts. You can't provide the footage because it never happened. His dreads were tied up in a bun on the back of his head and not once did he try to headbutt Vitali.

    Fury, AJ, Joyce, Mahmoudov(not sure he's any good tbh) unless im forgetting someone, are really the only guys of any quality who could be considered super heavyweights. Provided he comes in switched on I'd favor Lewis to beat all of them with Fury probably giving him a close fight.

    Wilder is so basic technically, Lewis would tear him to ribbons and KO him inside 3.

    Fury would pose an interesting challenge, he absolutely can beat Lewis it's just whether he can beat a count when he gets dropped. I say he does and wins 4/10 fights against Lewis.

    Usyk is a wildcard, Joshua landed on him and he doesn't have near the pedigree or skillset that a prime Lewis would bring.

    Fury could absolutely beat Lewis? No offense, but based upon...? Lewis is ten times the finisher Wilder is.

    Fury would be a problem for any HW ever, he’s huge, relatively fast, he knows how to fight, he’s tough as hell, can be responsible defensively.

    mo ome said his dreads cut the skin moron, they further opened a cut opened by a punch that completely missed except for the thumb.
