I know, shocking that someone could believe it's possible for the current best HW in the world could defeat a fighter that was KO'd twice by lesser fighters than himself.atschatsch:rofl Lewis was invincible, he allowed himself to be KO'd by McCall and Rahman because he wanted to add drama to his career. If anyone believes Wlad has even a 1% chance of winning they are a nuthugger.:good
Prime Wlad would be scared of Prime Lewis. Not-Prime Wlad has a better chance because that Wlad threw power punches right away. Prime Wlad will try to trow jabs for 8 rounds and hold, except Lewis is stronger, would back him up and knock him out. As it stands right now, I'd say any version of Lewis beats any version of Wlad. Lewis was all around better and tougher.
This fight would go one of two ways, Lewis could take the defensive approach in which case mid-late round stoppage. Or he could just attack full on in which case early ko. Basically how the fight goes would be down to Lewis, not Wlad.
:shock:What even the present day commentating version?Or to go one further,the fat version that stopped Vitali?
Well Wlad did say that version of Vitali would knock him out and Lewis stopped Vitali so it adds up :hey
Announcer Lewis will comment while fighting! He'll throw an overhand right and with his mic pack still on be like, "It's ova...the fight is OVA!"
...except that he did once. The other time not so much. The man has not been down enough times to establish any sort of pattern. Wlad has been down a whole shitload of times, so we can establish a pattern that he does get up.
''This has been a monumentally impressive performance this from Lennox Lewis, who let's remember... is 37 in September. He's.... past his best probably himself but you'd never guess it and that's a cracking right hand, that must finish it, that must finish it surely, he'll be counted out...... Lennox Lewis seals his place... in history forever.... and closes the book, on Mike Tyson'' The date the truth was finally told :deal
Nothing wrong with giving Wlad a chance in this one, however if anyone makes wlad the favourite then they mad as a bucket of soapy frogs!
From what we have seen yet I think that Lewis would probably win early using pressure from the go. But we haven't seen the best of WK yet. His defining fight is yet to come.
Lewis by early and HUGE KO. I dont dislike Wlad particularly, but Lennox is too powerful, too athletic and too clever
