Lewis Vitali Wlad in that order... i do think that either guy could beat either guy on any given night...all very close in class...
Lennox Lewis - Wlad (Both a fight between them 50:50). Lewis never boxed against a southpaw for example. I see them side to side a the top.
And that's why Lewis picked Wlad in his last fight right? Oh wait they choose Vitali, Vitali his style had problems against a world class fighter that had the reach where his lean back defence didn't work (Rope a dope without the rope) Lewis is probably number 1 heavyweight ever in h2h ability. So I would pick him ofcourse.
Lewis, then Wlad, then Vitali. Wlad is moving up the ranking ladder for simply being so dominant for so long, but the **** poor comepetition will always hold him back, as will his 3 bad losses. He will remain behind Lewis. Vitali, while showing great longevity and H2H ability, falls short in the rankings of both due to the gap in his career and his losses to Byrd and Lewis make it difficult to rank him above Lennox. H2H I think Lewis would beat both Vitali and Wlad prime vs prime. I think Vitali would beat Wlad in a fight, but it'd be close.
Depends, if Lewis was in his prime against Vitali I'd say it's Vitali. He wasn't in his prime, but I think the overall question is how far out of his prime was he?
