Zab has the mental makeup of a toddler. Wlad has all the needed attributes, so does Lewis. Just saying he NEEDS a inside game to be able to compete when its not his style and its not needed whatsoever just shows a complete lack of understanding of this sport. Some of the greatest fighters in history were not able to do ceirtan things. Ali being a great example of being the GOAT heavy without a inside game whatsoever. How difficult is this for you to comprehend or are you just yet another hate spewer with no grasp on logic/reality whatsoever?
Truth is that given Vlad`s superior speed, ring savvy and granite chin. How could Lewis hope to make it out of the 2nd rd ? Vlad comes out flying, working his jab, punishing right lead and all the while unleashing THE fastest hands ever seen amongst the heavies. Truth is Lews would be quaking in fear of the mean, intimidating Vlad...
I believe Lennox is the best head to head fighter of all-time. And if I had to pick any ATG that would beat him, it would be Wlad. The one thing where Wlad gets no credit is his footwork and speed. Wlad does an amazing job at controlling and maintaining distance while still applying offense because of his amazing job. Wlad made a freakish athlete like Haye continually have to reset because Wlad matched him step for step. It sort of breaks my heart that people, as what happened to Lennox, make up nonsense (or refuse to see) to hate on a fighter instead of truly appreciating greatness.
Lewis ko round one. You seen what Lewis did to Vitali's face. The klitschkos cut way to easy. But Wlad can't take a punch. Wlad would get hit if he fight Lewis and he would go down. Lewis is the only one the was able to hit Vitali back with major shots and you see his skin let him down. The Klitschkos just don't have the skin to fight the best. Even if they fought hard they will be stopped on cuts. Like it or not the Klitsckos are modern day Bleeders.
I always said Lewis was damn lucky he fought Vitali instead of Wlad, Vitali cant punch as hard as Wlad. Lennox hated punchers and he generally avoided fighting them when possible. Whoever lands first wins, if Wlad is aggressive he would land first, if Wlad is cautious I favor Lennox landing first. What a disgrace this fight could have been made but Lewis retired.
Not true at all. If anything Lewis faced the biggest set of punchers out of most of the ATG heavyweights. Tua, Vitali, Rahman, Grant, Ruddock, Morrison, Briggs, Golotta, Mercer, Jackson, Bruno and even Tucker had something like 40 KOs out of 48 going into their bout and Mason had only gone the distance 3 times out of 35. I also thought I shouldn't mention Tyson in that list as he wasn't exactly a threat when he thought Lewis, but being that power is the last thing you lose in boxing he still would have had decent B level punching power at the least.
LOL... Lewis has wins over Holyfield, Tyson and V Klitschko. All three can be argued to be better than Wlad. Exactly WHO has Wlad ever beaten? Please S T O P with the Klit Licker ridiculousness...
