    Vit is better than Wlad, and a past prime Lennox beat a prime Vitaly. So..... I'm going with Lennox.

    Mostly agree.

    But that was prime Lewis.

    And the thread didn't ask about what preparation the fighters made.

    Best version of Lewis > Best version (so far) of Wlad.

    I would certainly highly favor Lewis but that isn't the end all or fair to Wlad. I think if they fight ten times, the best version of Wlad will take one of ten. No question who's greater, no question to me who is better. But, Lewis is not infallible either. I think most likely Lewis wins and by knockout but that doesn't mean Wlad would just be some hopeless, hapless schlub in there with him. Quick question, who's better, the Rahman that beat Lewis or the current Wlad? Okay, so let's not say Wlad has no chance at all.

    Neither Rahman or McCall was prime Lewis.

    I'd say both were.

    In fact, his defeat of Rahman was one of his finest performances.

    Why, he is better than Wlad, which is Why I'm sure he leaves him on his back.

    Most arguments involve Lewis's ko's at some point and that clouds how a lot of people rank him.

    But this is a nonsense.

    Lewis - McCall, Lewis pre Manny is not Prime Lewis.
    Lewis - Rahman, Lewis trained for 14 days, 14, to fight at a climate of 5000ft. Not prime Lewis.

    I won a substantial pot by picking the round of the KO.

    I wanted to pick 6, but another guy already had it. I even offered to buy it from him but to no avail, so I was stuck with four.

    Made Two hundred and forty Euro's that evening.

    Nice one. I only ever bet on Lewis once, the bet £100 Lewis UD, the fight Holyfield I :lol:. Needless to say it was my first and last on Lewis.

    Friendly reminder: Vit was winning by points and was willing to fight on.
