Wlad v Lewis prime for prime.

Grant and Golota weren't even close to Wlad

 

I would make Lennox the favorite but Klitschko would have a chance

 

The difference between the two is that Lewis has more fire in his belly for example despite some questioning his chin he will still exchange punches and grind out a tough fight when needed to.

Wladimir on the other hand fought cautiously and constantly tied up his opponent when hurt or in a tough fight see the Peter fight.

Lewis by KO for me.

 

That's how I've got it.
Lewis gets rough and batters him.

 

Lewis within 4 rounds, Klitschko actually never got over the knockout defeats mentally and fought scared often, when fighters would press him, he’d back up and get overly defensive, but could get away with it by sticking his arms out and clinching since he had such a height, reach and weight advantage over them, he could get away with it because they couldn’t reach him, that would work with Lewis who, even if Klitschko did get defensive and stick his arms out to distance himself, Lewis would be able to catch him right over that, since he has the reach to reach him, and if Klitschko is defensive enough that he’s not in Lewis’ punching range, Klitschko also wouldn’t be in range to land, which he usually was since most of his opponents were shorter than Lewis.

 

I can't think of anything Wlad does better than Lewis other than maybe having a slightly better arsenal because of the beautiful hook to go with the useful jab and big right hand...then again Lewis had a fine uppercut.

I would say Lewis is just the better version of two similar fighters.

 

This is exactly it. Lewis showed he could gut it out when he had too and he was more pro active.

 

Wlad had the better jab and had the bigger punch

 

Wlad by mid-rounds KO

Great point, Catch!!

 

This is more or less along the lines of what I think except that I feel that Klitschko was a substantially better technical fighter, He had refined his fight game better than Lewis had. I'd agree that if Lewis turned it into a brawl life would be hard for Wlad. On the other hand if Lewis tried to box Wlad I think he'd get switched off sooner or later.

 

care to elaborate how?
