    Again, Wlad hasn't completed his legacy just yet.

    Rudduck (lost to Morrison once & old Tyson twice)
    Morrison (KO'd brutally by Mercer)
    Old Tyson (Not the very best version)
    Tua (1 dimensional)
    Mercer (Almost an upset)
    Rahman (Win 1, Lose 1)
    McCall (Win 1 Lose 1)
    Bruno (Never Was)

    etc., etc.

    In truth you could discredit anyone's resumé if you try hard enough.

    BTW, Lewis is still one of my all time favorite Heavys no matter how it's twisted. Easily top 5 in any serious rankings, my personal top 3.

    I tend to look at a fighter's current stature as he is handling his fights currently. What is the point of constantly discussing Wlad as he was about 5 years ago?

    Also... what the hell does it matter how many times Wlad has been knocked down? Is it better for a fighter to keep getting up when they are knocked down, or just stay down to save themselves from raising the "knock down count"?

    What a brutal reign of terror.

    Michael Grant - The ongoing joke of heavyweight boxing. If this counts as a big win for Lewis, then Jameel McCline (who stopped Grant with the first punch of the fight is a win out of this world)

    Frans Botha - WTF? Why was Botha getting a shot at the undisputed title?:lol:

    David Tua - Very good win

    Hasim Rahman - Knocked Lewis out, and then lost the rematch.

    Over the hill Mike Tyson - Is this win even worth mentioning? Kevin McBride and Danny Williams did it quicker.:lol:

    Vitali Klitschko - Registered as a win, no doubt. However Lewis was losing and the fight was stopped on a cut. After the fight Lewis tried to sue Mike Tyson back into the ring, and after sitting on the title for another 8 months, was forced by the WBC to fight Vitali again or be stripped... Lewis chose to retire rather than fight Vitali again.

    Let's also remember that not only had Lewis retired and vacated the WBC rather than fight his #1 contender Vitali... that he also dropped both the IBF, and WBA titles in order to avoid fighting the #1 conteders for both of those titles. He also failed to fight Wladimir Klitschko who was the Ring Magazine #1 contender to Lewis for over 2 years during Lewis' Reign.

    Once again... what an amazing reign of terror. How could Wlad ever dream of living up to that?:nut

    Well... it didn't take long to scare them off with facts.

    Now, thanks to a member in the lounge... I have came across a video that illustrates how the Klitschko "Hate Squad" is clinging to David Haye right now.

    Its true! But even with a bigger and more padded record with more and more good fighter in it, Wlad will probably be ranked under Lewis for one thing. The way he fight. Even if Wlad is a 2.0 Lewis ( WHAT A JOKE, AND A REALLY GOOD ONE:patsch) WITH MORE SPEED, MORE POWER ETC...he dont seem that good.

    Lennox Lewis was very good, but come on he is not god. If Wlad unfies he is definitely on the same level. Brits and LL nuthuggers certainly not determine who is who in HW-boxing.

    Haye may have a puncher's chance...Vitali would've been his "Mission Impossible" without a happy end. I still favor Wlad and think he'll KO Haye within 5.

    Please answer the question.
    Meanwhile, quit showing your insecurities by having to insult:deal

    Aw ****, the man with the lowest IQ on the forum thinks I'm a worthless poster, how can I live with that :nut

    When you made that thread about "what if WALDO fights Haye instead of VITLAY" did you mention in that thread when you started it that you'd had an inside tip? You didn't, did you, you just posted it as though you'd guessed what was going to happen - presumably so you could act like Nostradamus when it all panned out. Insecurity is a terrible thing, seek help :good

    I've got news for you too - I got the inside tip from the horses mouth around the same time you did, and every post I made in that thread was just me getting in plenty of cheap shots at WALDO knowing that you would sit back trying to act like a mental giant when the news of the fight broke. I've been waiting a while for you to do it, and now you just have.

    I suggest you PM the source of the inside info if you need confirmation of this, I'm sure he'll be happy to confirm it :hi:

    In that thread, I never acted like I even knew the fight was happening... genius. I wasn't the only person aware of the thread and it's intentions.:good It was actually a preconceived plan to get the moronic posters like yourself to go on and on about how Wlad would never take that fight, how it wouldn't happen... how Haye would knock Wlad out, ect.... Obviously... you jumped right through the hoop as you always do. You aren't predictable or anything.:rofl

    BTW, I know for a fact that this was BEFORE you were given the info.:deal
