Lewis would've knocked Wlad out with relative ease.

    Lennox Lewis is comparable with Wladimir Klitschko when it comes to size and athletic ability. Wlad is a notch faster and better with the fundamentals, but Lennox is tougher, has more heart and is a lot more versatile.

    When it comes to mandible fortitude, Wlad doesn't get knocked spark out with single shots, but it may happen with Lennox. This said, it's not like Wlad takes a guy out just because he connects. He'd need to catch Lennox perfectly with a right hand shot, and when Lennox keeps his **** together he doesn't leavy many openings. Besides, I think much of Wlads offense goes out of the window when Lennox puts the heat on him.

    Another aspect is that when tall men used to fight small men battle it out, you will get a lot of clinching. Lennox has an inside game, Wlad does not.

    I'm pretty sure Wlad gets stopped in the first half of the fight. Lennox by TKO.

    So you don't hold the far worse KO's of Lewis against him, but you do against Wlad no agenda here right, stop being such a hypocrite.

    I like Wlad more than I like LL but I think the uppercuts from Lennox will end up being the deciding factor. I don't think LL can get KTFO by Wlad- he may have to take a seat once or twice at most but I think LL would win.

    Zeljko Mavrovich wasn't on the same level in terms of skills, yet Lewis went life and death with him :think:think:think

    hypocrisy has nothing mutually exclusive with the rematching or not rematching of losses.


    sorry mate, deal with it. again.

    also deal with your lies too - lewis lost to decent contenders for the world title and beat them in return.
    wlad (if you mean him) lost to journeymen and retirees, and ran for the hills in fear.

    Wlad is a different fighter than he was then and you know that, yet through all of your hatred for him, still clinging with all your might to something that happened 10 years ago, refuse to acknowledge that, its quite pathetic and desperate.

    How are they worse both McCall and Rahman were better than the guys Wlad lost to. Rahman beat Sanders and it wasn't even a fully fit Rahman but a out of shape and overweight Rahman.

    I wouldn't call losing 3 rounds going life and death with someone. That fight gets blown way out of proportion. Everyone expected Lewis to finish Mavrovic early but nobody knew he had a chin you could use as a nuclear bunker. Lewis gave a lack lustre performance and didn't get the stoppage but in reality while he never subdued Mavrovic he was always in control.

    The KO's themselves were worse, Lennox got KTFO by Rahman and McCall had him on spaghetti legs. Wlad got back up quite a few times and mainly got KO'd because he was gassed out, Puritty didn't KO him the corner stopped it, Brewster he had just punched himself out and Sanders hit him with countless shots and dropped him several times before the KO. It takes one punch to KO Lewis, several to KO Wlad.

    Well, Lewis showed the only way to beat Vitali. Tall guy, long reach, great jab. Wladimir can do the same.

    Lewis - Wlad would be a real game of chess to view, because Wlad can answer that jab with his own! And he keeps his hands up unlike Vitali.

    When you face better opposition you are more likely to lose more dramatically and Lewis got up against McCall he just didn't get the opportunity to continue like Wlad did.

    I don't really hold the Purrity loss against Wlad it was very early in his career and he was fighting a lot of fights over a short period at that time, he would not have had a full training camp to prepare like a fighter fighting 2-4 times a year.

    Yeah he probably would. Its just a bad style match up for Wlad.

    I'd give Wlad a punchers chance though

    Lewis at the peak of his time with Steward vs. Klitschko at the peak of his time with Steward?

    :think

    That's a damn good match-up.

    I like the Lion by KO. :good

    I don't know about the "with ease" part, though.
