Freud would have said you probably have an oppressed and hidden sexual fixation on your own mother, but you are afraid to admit it to your subconscious. Therefore you project it on other mothers :deal
Grant was a hype job right from the start. I remember Lewis in an interview just before Grants fight with Golota and he said Grant wasn't ready for him. Then after Grant went life and death with Golota, showing his flaws to dropping his left and being open to the right hand, he suddenly became a viable opponent for Lewis, the man with one of the best right hands in history. Great matchmaking. Regarding Tua, if he'd stayed around 224-230 then he may of actually had a good career, as it turned out he went life and death with any half decent fighter he fought. Jeff Wooden is a good example. And it's funny you refer to Peter who is a better fighter than both Grant and the overhyped Tua.
Virgin? I best go and get a DNA test to see if the two kids sitting in my front room are actually mine then. And I don't hate Lewis, but I also don't want to toss his salad like you do.
I say it's pretty close. Lewis had great power and great combinations, but if he is the hardest puncher of all times, why didn't he put down Holyfield, Tua, Mercer or Mavrovic? Same could be said for Wlad and Haye, Ibragimov and Peter. Overall I'd say Lennox has better combinations, Wlad has the crisper 1-punch-shots (except Lewis vs. Rahman II). Here is a good pic btw of Wlad deforming Botha's skull. This content is protected
Lewis for me could generate power - big power - from any angle and punch. Wlad has to set himself and commit more to his punches. Wlad for overall power. Lewis for consistent power. I would also pick Lewis to blow him out fast too ala Golota fight. Interestingly, Wlad has gotten more heavy handed since he has been in the 240lb range.
