    Easy points win for Lewis or freakish one punch KO for Klistchko with about a 90-10% breakdown in terms of chacnes. In other words, I would need better than 10-1 that Klit wins by KO.

    I'm not denigrating Wlad. It's just that Lewis has a swerious edge in areas where there are serious edges to be had, and a only gives up a slight edge in footwork, nowhere else.

    Something like 9-3 in rounds. Boring fight.

    Wlad is a poor man's Lewis. Lewis rushes him and blasts him out early every time.

    Who has Sanders beaten other than Wlad? He was a one trick pony, and was about to retire after the Wlad fight and only came in as the opponent. What does he has that Mercer, Tua, Holyfield, Morrison or Bruno doesn't? All of them would obliterate Sanders. He got stopped by Hassim Rachman and lesser fighters than that.

    I agree that Lewis wins but from a diferent direction.

    If Wlad had Oliver McCalls chin I would still bet on Lewis.

    I would have to pick Lewis by a decision, only because Lewis did not posses Wlad's achiles heel which is a strong left hook. On the otherhand, wlad has a fairly solid right, along with a servicable jab and powerful size. However, I don't feel that Klitshko had the delivery capabilities to expose Lewis's weaknesses ( though an upset is possible .)

    Lewis takes this one, but it could be a treachurous test..

    I can't see any way Lewis would lose here in fact I can see him catching Wlad early and it not going two rounds.

    Wladimir Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis?

    Who has Steward in camp and in his corner? I think this means something here.

    While I think Lewis is over all better, there is no doubt Wlad has the tools ( Big right hand, better jab, and more speed to win )

    The Lewis against Grant or Golota...Lewis ko 1 or 2. I can't see Wlad standing up to that kind of assult by someone as skilled as Lewis. Peter was even more limited than Sanders.

    It's deppresing to see how overrated is Wlad in this site.

    Lennox knocks him out inside one round. i'm not trying to sound hyperbolic. I really believe it. Wlad would be frightened. Lesser boxers made him loose his composure. Lennox, well...
