    Plain and simple.

    Which boxer is harder to hit...

    PRIME Wladimir (with steward as trainer), or Prime Lewis.

    I'm gonna have to say Wlad. Even though Lewis was a better all around boxer than Wlad is, he could take a shot, so was still eager to engage when required and took more shots than necessary sometimes.

    Wlad on the other hand has no choice but to protect that disgraceful chin he has, so it's definitely harder to land a flush shot on W. Klitty.

    Quotes from 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."

    Probably Wladimir - Lewis is the more versatile fighter, but Wladimir is really tough to land on.

    I usually don't do that, but you were just begging for it.

    All that proves is that if wave a bunch of dollar bills in Manny's face and he'll say any crazy thing you want him to.

    Exactly :good

    Steward on Lennox Lewis: "I said that he was my best heavyweight. Because he did accomplish and do things that Wladimir has not did. He had big fights, he knocked out opponents. Wladimir has more talent, but the one that you have to give the credit, to the people who have actually beaten good fighters."

    Wlad

    Lewis was easier to target because he took the fight to his opponent when needed

    Wlad uses a more safe approach, he's very difficult to catch clean, which is why he's so dominant

    I agree 100%. :good

    That and the fact that he fights mostly tomato cans helps a lot also.

    Yes it´s true because Waldi clinch extrem when a oppenent is in right reach to hit him. Waldi brake´s permanet the Queensbury rules when a oppenent get in close distanz.

    P.s ah I see YOU Again :rofl
