    Not more than four fights I'd guess:think. I'd say he was coming out of it in Holyfield II

    You DID see the punch Tyson landed on Golota, right? Not many people in history could have absorbed that shot and sprung right back up, especially with bleeding on the brain.

    I think Golota recovered quickly. Kind of like Holyfield and Maidana

    Nothing worse than Klitschko fanboys.

    To those mentioning Golota, if Ross Purrity, Corrie Sanders and Lamont Brewter can knock Wlad out, why couldn't Bowe, who beat prime undefeated ATG Holyfield?

    Planet Klitschko :patsch


    As has been said, if you don't see the difference between the Bowe that beat Holyfield in their first fight, and the Bowe that fought Golota, you don't know ****.

    Furthermore, if you think Wlad or Vitali have anything more than a punchers chance against prime Lennox Lewis, you're delusional.

    I also think prime Riddick Bowe beats both brothers, especially Wlad, who would have only a punchers chance against prime Bowe.

    Bowe was always 'past his best' for his ENTIRE PRO CAREER because he was a delusional idiot with **** for brains. Zero discipline, zero mental strength, zero professional attitude. Sorry to break it for the Bowe fanboys but your hero was not too bright and stupid athletes usually don't last too long at the top and just remain historical footnotes.

    Yes both are primarily safety first outfighters. Both fight at range behind one of the best jabs in the divisions history. Both can end a fight with one punch. Both resort to clinching on the inside (lewis's main advantage is he can fight inside unlike wlad) both have shown complacency training. Both have questionable durability.

    As I say, on paper i'd favour bowe to get inside and push wlad's **** in. But there's a reason he ducked lewis and his ingame wasn't it.

    Wlad is just as good on the outside as lewis was and maybe bowe doesn't fancy his chances against a shw outfighter.

    On paper there aren't many guys that should be favoured over bowe, but his actions spoke loud to me when he ducked lewis.

    He wouldn't replicate sanders victory because he wasn't a counter puncher.

    But he could do a brewster and score a stoppage by taking wlad's shots and forcing a fight.

    As I said though, he did duck lewis and not because of his ingame. Wlad is just as good outside so it's something that makes me wonder.

    Lol.

    Based on what? His resume?

    We've seen Lewis demolish some good Super Heavyweights like Ruddock, Golota, Briggs, and Klitschko the Older.

    What Super Heavys has Klitschko the Younger demolished? Tony Thompson?

    GTFOOH.

    The last half way decent SHW that Wlado fought ending the fight inside of *2* rounds.

    There's NO reason whatsoever to beileve that Wlado is as good as Lewis in any way, shape, or form.

    this...^

    I think Wlad is just better than Bowe, only areas he isn't is chin and inside fighting. I'd say Wlad TKO's him, but Bowe could KO Wlad early...

    How can he fight exactly the same way Lewis did?

    He isn't Lewis nor does he have his make up.
