Lewis' stoppage of golata at the time was a huge win and def more spectacular than any of wlads wins,, So is lewis' wins over ruddock n grant...
But in terms of significance, i think wlad's wins over haye and povetkin are on par with the golata win,,,,, maybe even the sultan and chagev wins because the held belts
Golota never even won a title, he lost every big fight he ever had.
David Haye was a two division titlist, former undisputed cruise weight champ and heavyweight titlist. Wlad dominated him. You think that little of Haye?

Apparently, he's turned his back on his now former poster boy
Does Lewis have a better win than Haye? Neither Tyson or Holyfield were better than Haye at the time Lewis fought them. In fact, both were done (especially Tyson) by the time Lewis fought them. Ruddock? He never did anything with his career, he's best known for his losses. Frank Bruno? Lewis was losing that fight handily until he lucked out. Ditto for Vitali, except the luck was exponentially more extraordinary and left no room to argue that Lewis was actually better. Morrison? Mercer (arguably a loss as well, I scored it for Ray)? Briggs? Grant? Tua? Rahman (1-1)? None of those fighters are as good or accomplished as Haye.
I submit that Haye is the best scalp, by far, on either man's CV.

Good question,,, but if you take things in the context of when they happened,,,
Holyfield was the undisputed champ
Briggs was lineal
Golata was prime
Ruddock was proclaimed by HBO to be the uncrowned champ when tyson went to jail
Grant was hugely hyped
Tua was hugely hyped
Plus he stopped a prime vitali
lewis had much better wins,, Haye wouldnt beat tua, ruddock, etc... i think he could ko golata,, maybe beat grant n briggs,, he would def get beat up by mercer, and probably bruno, morrison, and even Zultan would have been tough
