Lennox Lewis is much higher than Vitali all time, and I am not huge fan or do not hate either... This is common knowledge for anyone that knows anything about boxing. I would like to see any case to seriously be made for Vitali ahead of Lennox, I would probably get a good laugh. Lennox beat much better fighters, had a longer reign, and oh yeah, won a H2H battle way past his prime against Vitali.. By stoppage.
Quotes from Emanuel Steward “Wladimir is gonna be the one I don’t think I could train a man to beat the way he is. I’m serious. I’ve never had a fighter – I went from Holyfield and all the guys I’ve worked with, never, Lennox – Wladimir is a very, very committed, very difficult fighter to beat. Because he won’t let you fight him. He makes you fight what he wants you to fight. But the biggest thing which I think people are not looking at is his speed for a big man. Tremendous speed. Foot Speed. He can move in, explode, move out, move back in, explode, and I’ve never seen anyone that could…move in and out and be in perfect balance” "Wladimir has better one-punch knockout capability than Lennox" "Wlad has the best footwork, coordination and balance of any fighter I ever worked with. He’s the most accurate, single-punch knockout guy I have ever seen. A guy can be completely fine, not hurt, and Wladimir can put his lights out with one shot." "Wladimir’s coordination is better and he is the most powerful natural talent than any other heavyweight I have worked with." "In terms of jab, Wladimir is the best and after him I would put Lennox. In terms of boxing arsenal, Wladimir is better than Lennox."
Wlad is more talented than Lewis and Vitali. Wlad dominates Lewis like Vitali did and knocks him out like McCall and Rahman did. Lewis would get brutally KTFO by a steelhammer right hand from Wlad.
