What if Wlad fought Lewis instead of Vitali the night of 2002

I refuse to reverse the meaning of English language words so that you can understand them on your planet Klitshcko, where words have opposite meanings.

 

I'll take that as a pass then...

You're dismissed Britbum

 

I think he has ever bit as much of a chance Rahman did, if not more. Wlad was for more aggressive back then, and while there's no way he could take Lewis' shots very well, the opposite is also true. Wlad punched himself out against Brewster, I don't think Lennox would have been able to eat the kind of leather Brewster did. Something like 60/40 or 65/35 in favor of Lennox. I think this fight would be a lot more competitive, and interesting than what a lot of people think.

 

you've alredy elected to do that with every argument. nothings changed.

 

Depends. Klitschko took Sanders lightly he understimated him. And Sanders was replacement of the replacment, he show in the "last" minute. Klitschko was not prepare for him and the main thing he wasn`t even watching him, as well as southpaw ....
For Lewis, Klitschko would train insane the hardest in his career so far.
In boxing everything can happen so ...
I can say Rahman and McCall KO Lewis, Wlad will murder him. As well as Mercer, who Klitschko knocked down in the first round and beat the s*** out of him.
While Mercer beat Lewis for me, or atleast secure a draw.
Klitschko - Lewis is toss up.

 

Considering the Lewis-Vit fight occurred 3 months after Wladimir had his confidence crushed by Corrie Sanders, I think it's fair to say that Wladimir would have been very tentative against Lewis and probably would have been KOd rather quickly.
If, for the sake of argument, we want to use pre-Sanders Wladimir, then that's different. With Lewis being a bit old and not in great condition, Wladimir would have a good chance to end it early. Due to Wlads inexperience dealing with serious adversity and Lewis' serious punching power, Lennox also has a good chance to end things early.
I imagine the fight would NOT see the start of the 4th round, with a 2nd round KO the most likely outcome IMO. Probably, I'll say, 53%to 47% in favor of Lennox Lewis.
That may seem like a big chance to Wladimir for some people, but I look at his superior hand speed and one shot power compared to Vitali. If Wladimir were to land that same right hand on the jaw that Vitali did in the 2nd round it's hard to imagine Lennox not going to the floor.

 

You're wasting your time. That guy is a complete ****ing dip****. His favorite tactic is to make up statements or points you didn't say and then argue against the points that he made up. It's like talking to a 14yr old with a serious attitude problem.
He stays in his house and posts rubbish on the internet so he doesn't get the living **** beaten out of him in public every day.

 

Yeah, I'm not exactly new around here....

 

I suppose you arent

 

It would have been his last fight.

 

lmao Brit****s bragging about the exploits of Jamaican fighters. Welcome to the 21st century folks.

 

I'd appreciate if you didn't quote that Dan guy, hes been on ignore for a long time for a good reason.

 

It's been a while since I've seen so many Klit****s out in force on these boards. Vlad would have been brutally KO'd and then would never have sought the rematch.

Vitali lost and you guys can't get over it all these years later. I don't know why you can't accept it, Lewis was the better fighter in every respect other than perhaps chin. It's ****ing tragic you guys are so salty over Vitali getting beaten by one of the greatest heavyweights to lace em up.
