How many times has this been done :think Lewis inside 4 and if you cant see that or think its would be a close fight then we need to book you in the hospital and have you surgicaly removed from wlads left nut sack :good
Wlad might have one chance in ten if he borrowed Vitali's chin for the evening. Everything Wlad does well Lewis did (much) better.
Vitali outboxed Lewis quite easily first rounds and wladimir can't do it with better speed and technical skills? and he also hit much harder..Vitali doesnt own one punch KO power..
Vitali didn't outbox Lewis... he out hustled an overweight 37 year old version of Lewis! Firstly Wlad doesn't have pressure fighting in his arsenal which is what Vitali used. Second that wasn't a prime Lewis and a prime Lewis would have picked Vitali off from range all night whilst keeping Vitali turning. Lewis at 37 in the worst shape he ever entered the ring in stopped a prime Vitali who Wlad himself has admitted would knock him out! Also it is worth noting that back then before his shoulder injury Vitali hit very hard too
If Rahman can KO Lewis, so can Wlad. I thought this was a bout the best versions of both fighters. The Wlad who beat Chagaev would not be bum rushed by Sanders. Competitive fight, could actually be a 12 round fight because they negate each other advantages.
I would say that Wlad controls range better than Lewis. No version of Wlad would have a problem with any version of Mercer, unlike Lewis.
Lewis was prime 2000 in my opinion, not that far from prime time..and if the prime time was earlier Lewis lost Mccall -94 he was in prime? Wlad is no pressure fighter? ask Mercer...
