    Exactly. You ever wonder why Lewis felt the need to call Corrie Sanders out of the blue before he fought Wlad and give Corrie his coaches observations? He and Corrie were never buddies :think

    How is 4-2 lossing pretty badly? It's a one round swing.

    The truth is deep down LUFC still can't forgive Lewis for calling Bruno an 'uncle Tom'. Isn't that right LUF? lolol


    As for Lennox v Wlad 2004, i just can't see a gun-shy Wlad (who let's be honest was scared of his own shadow) seeing past 3 rounds with a faded Lewis who would have the intent of taking Wlads head off from the start to finish.

    Lewis wouldn't be bothered about boxing here and lets not forget his longer reach. Wlad is just too timid imo to commit to throwing a supposed KO sucker-punch against a direct Lewis walking him down, and wouldn't have the stomach to live with an aggressive Lewis, even a faded one. It was Vitali's willingness to fight that surprised Lewis early, Wlad doesn't have that, not to mention the chin.

    Wlad's best chance of beating Lewis would've been 2001, other than that any version of Lewis beats any version of Wlad. Like Flea i've come around to Wlad but Lewis would always be all wrong for him.

    Ditto with Holmes, however not Marciano. I can't understand how someone so untested in his best years and still managed to look fairly mediocre at times, constantly gets put as the 3rd best heavyweight of all time, mind boggling if you ask me.
