Wladimir Klitschko v Lennox Lewis

Lewis would most likely win. The Wlad who used more footwork in the Joshua fight would give him a great chance but Lewis still holds the slight edge here. Klitchko definatley gets a knock out if they fought enough times. I see Lewis getting a UD win more than a K.O win.

 

Lewis is my pick, and early. When Lennox was faced with dangerous opponents it brought out the best in him, and Wlad would be in that caregory. Like he told Corrie Sanders to jump right on Wlad, he would take his own advice. Lewis tko 2.

 

I'll take Klitschko. He was technically superb and extremely consistent. Lewis himself rates higher than Wlad on the ATG list but it's a style matchup that Wlad should be favoured in. I think Lewis would be wary of Wlad's power (and vice versa, let's not kid ourselves) and that it would actually in the most be a boxing match rather than a slugfest. Wlad is the better boxer.

A spanner in the works is who would have a hypothetical Steward in their corner. I believe that this could tip the balance to either man. I think Steward would urge Lewis to get on with it and bomb Wlad out, and I think in that case Lewis' chances go up quite a bit since I think in a brawl he's the favourite.

 

Lewis by stoppage.

 

Whoever's got Manny.

He's that important.

 

this fight shouldtn be allowed for the sake of wlads health. under no circumstances put a K bro in with an elite, cos u know what happens.

 

lol. Its like asking who'd win between Felix Sturm and Nigel Benn.

When Lewis was beating Mike Tyson , WK was still a non-factor despite being a pro for 6 years. He didn't start facing top 5 level opposition until well after Lewis retired and by that point the division had descended into the worst state of its entire existence.

Shot to bits Chris Byrd was the #1 rated HW... .. A guy who could barely crack the top 10 in his prime when Lewis was around. Indecently Manny said Byrd wouldn't even be hired as a sparring partner for Lewis , yet he was the guy who twice made Wlad a champion...

WK was steerd away from Lewis at all costs for good reason.

 

getting serially wiped out by non elites...again, again, again, again.

one loss you can forgive, call it an off day, maybe even two as long as you made up for it to confirm your elitedom.... but again and again and again, no way. An elite is a small group who only lose to other elites, by and large. Wlad does not qualify by a good margin.

what should really be asked is why you consider him an elite, I am amazed you've not asked yourself all this time.

 

Yes and so does everybody else.

The cockroach duo of Herol and Dino come scurrying out of the broom cupboard at the chance to take a dump on a Klitschko and to turn the thread into a shitfest. It never fails.

 

If ever a fighter was all wrong for Wlad, it's Lennox.

Off the top of my head Lewis had a longer reach, was more co-ordinated, more agile, a better arsenal (including uppercuts), better combo's, could box or brawl if needed, better inside game (Wlad didn't have one), better chin, physically stronger too imo, had more than one way to win and last but not least, Lewis was a far, far braver fighter.

Wlad would have an inferiority complex against Lewis. Lewis would end this before the 5th.

 

calm down , no huff just becos someone disagrees with u.
