    Exactly. I would lay 100 down the knockdown would come from an uppercut, Wlad's got nothing on the inside, all Lewis got to do is pressure him a little bit and get him to clinch, Wlad opens his arms to clinch, Lewis steps to the side and rips an uppercut, Wlad's either going down or having a panic attack, which would evetually lead to a TKO/KO for Lewis.:yep

    Dumb question, Lennox would beat either Vitali or Wladimir in his prime, and in the case of Vitali, out of his prime . . .

    panic attack....:lol: that's a good way to describe it....

    Gollata had the same problem, but he'd start hyperventilating and would freeze...he did that with Lewis.....it was pretty pathetic....

    seriously that brings up a question....

    Wlad with Holyfield's intestinal fortitude (guts) and can't lose attitude would have been one "tough cookie" as Lennox Lewis would say. Holyfield had to be one of the toughest mentally of all time.

    I voted Lewis by K/O in this poll. But if you could give Wlad
    Evander's mental edge, I'd go with Wlad....:lol:

    As would I, Wlad is one of the most physically talented Heavyweights to come around in years, but his mental strentgh, or lack there of it, will be his eventual downfall. I have viewed every Wlad fight since the early 2000's, which is probably more than 75% of the nuthuggers, in doing so, his weakness are obvious to me, you ask any unbiased poster, whats Wlads weakness, they will either say his glass chin or that he's mentally weak for a title holder.

    Lennox had "NO difficulty" beating Vitali? I must have been watching a different fight. Looked pretty difficult to me.

    Vitali ended Lewis' career and would have knocked Lewis out if not for the damned biased ring doctor/ ref and promoter. Lewis was done for in that fight and decided to retire rather than fight a rematch.

    Yes I do think Wlad would fight completely different vs. Lewis, since Lewis isn't a southpaw. Wladimir has a great record vs. big & tall heavies.

    I say LL KO's him in 5.The Lewis that showed up for the Rahman2 fight takes him out even quicker.Pondering safety first fighters...Lewis will eat him for breakfast.Fighters who gave Lewis were guys who came forwrd at him and were busy with their hands...

    Wlad is too passive IMO to trouble Lewis...He has a punchers chance.Lewis on the other hand,can do a lot of different things with his hands..and is probably the bigger man...

    Lewis KO5.

    If Vitali wasnt in his prime as a 31 year old against Lewis then when was his prime? When fighting a bottle job pregnant Johnson? Come on he didnt face anyone after Lewis, fat Johnson went in and lay down out of fear of getting hit, Danny Williams was stoppe dquicker by Audley Harrison and Samil Sam, Corrie Sanders was old and rusty yet almost knocked him out.
