    Bear in mind Usyk is the far smaller guy and it was his second real fight at heavyweight.

    Is it the AIDs infested Tommy Morrison? Shot to bits Tyson? 37 yo much smaller Holyfield? Fat unmotivated Tua? Basic ***** Grant? Close decision Mercer? Past prime Tucker? Or is it ducking the contentious Klitschko rematch?

    Imo at heavyweight, Usyk very arguably has the better single win, in terms of skill level of opposition and impressiveness of beating the bigger guy.

    IMHO Vitali is Lewis' best win and he's better than AJ. Shame about the rematch

    Obviously Vitali is the best HW victory on either resume.

    Yeah..but ..context. Vitali had a trash resume himself and was a stiff idiot beating the crap out of small dudes. Yeah Lennox caused the cut but that's not really a completely valid victory in my eyes. Especially as he ducked the rematch

    Tyson Fury is best HW fighter this country has ever produced Lennox a closeish 2nd.

    AJ isn't even near

    Joyce is better

    Er, no, just no, what on earth are you seeing?

    Yeah Joshua isn't as stiff as some people make out but he's a statue compared to Vitali. Vitali, hands down, using head movement to slip and pull counter with both hands. When have you seen Joshua, upright, high guard, little to no head movement done anything like that? Plus Vitali's lateral movement is on another level to Joshua's.

    Yep. Crap thread by a troll, who has an anti-Lewis agenda. Wants to rewrite history.

    Which is totally fair but we'll talk again about it in a year or two.

    Tua is also right up there. Dangerous as hell and Lewis made him look silly.

    Another troll to add to the ignore list, not worth reading anymore of this drivel.
