    I would have guessed Wlad, but I met Hasim Rahman last year.

    He told me Lennox hit harder.

    you. JC wasnt bad looking in his youth but saying wlad is good looking is a stretch, he looks like an oaf.

    I respect them both though for what they did. JC did well to work up to winning a recognised world title eventually when he came from a dump like Newbridge. its tough coming from such. I might be visiting next month, Open Doors events in Wales are fascinating.

    Botha was too scared to take risks against Lewis and got stopped in the second round by a 3 hit combo.

    A less prime version of Botha took plenty of risks and got hit more against Wlad. He lasted 8 rounds.

    If Lewis touched David Haye he'd go to sleep and wouldn't wake up for a week. Haye took WK the distance. lol

    i'm not making bets on completely open matters, and I have no interest in betting on what you think are good looking men. There are other forums for you to pursue that interest.

    Very close I think. Wlad might of had more one shot power but Lewis was the more effective puncher landing his hard shots with greater frequency due to being more aggressive. Wlad left hook was harder than Lewis' left, right hands about the same, Lewis' uppercut clearly harder than Wlad's.

    I think Lewis's shots probably had more force behind them because he'd load up and put more body weight behind his punches, but Wlad's punches had more snap, they were a bit quicker because his delivery was technically better and so his shots were harder to see coming and traveled a smaller distance to it's target. So Wlad would score more one shot KO's beause he caught guys with shots they couldn't see coming and brace for.

    Sorry Herol, I was just kidding about the looks. I know you disagree with Dino lots of time. That doesn’t mean you can’t still love him you old smoothie you.

    Rahman never tasted Wlad's deadliest punch - left hook.

    Wlad's left hook was way harder than Lennox's

    Lennox certainly hit harder with uppercut (Wlad even rarely threw it).

    Right hook and straight - I don't know, it's very close, but probably Wlad by a slight margin

    NOOOO! Lennox's left hook wasn't even close to Wlad's one. Wlad;s left hook was even harder than his right hand.
