    It would be close, I think.

    Both can be knocked out by pretty poor opposition, but can make a relatively easy nights' work of fringe contender type opposition.

    Both can be cagey and boring, also. Although Lewis was criticized for that more than Joshua.

    I think it would end up being entertaining; the stamina of Lewis might end up winning it for him.

    Great fight! Defiantly PPV worthy.
    I'd go for Lewis in this match up... although I could see him having to survive some shaky moments, but in the end his greater skill and strength will get him a late stoppage or a UD

    Joshua would win. Lewis is nearly 60.

    The Canadian fella wins 9 times out of 10. 1 times out of 10 Joshua knocks him out, and Lewis beats him in a rematch.

    Lewis jabs his head clean off and stops him in 6 imo.

    Absolutely no contest.

    Lewis by knockout, probably early.

    Lewis could be an incredibly intimidating heavyweight when he wanted to be, and when he felt up against it.

    See this going similar to the Grant fight

    This has surely got to be a wind up post. Seriously Lewis is an all time great heavyweight. Number 2 in my opinion. Lewis would absolutely destroy Joshua. I think it would be very early inside 3 rounds. Lewis is better in every department.

    Lewis would jab Joshua mercilessly and KO him later on.

    Lewis would absolute pummel Joshua.

    A complete mismatch

    Lewis is all wrong for AJ. Better than him in every department.
