Lennox Lewis - Best Heavyweight Resume Ever
Collapse

Lewis has the best resume but resumes sometimes dont mean you can beat some fighters head to head . I would put Tyson and Vitali Klitchko to beat him 4 out of 5 times . I rate fighters not just in head to head but difficulty in actually beating them and what attributes it would take .I would have Lewis number 3 .Looking at ALL past time elite boxers from Jack Johnson to Tyson Fury i see only Mike Tyson and Vitali Klitchko being an arguable favorite over him .....Wlad Klitchko is a 50 /50 fight for me ,if he beats Fury ,Joshua i would put him over Lewis based on his dominance and to beat those types at age 40.

Tyson would simply be at too much of a size disadvantage.
Holyfield and Lewis have comparable skill levels, but the bigger man with the superior power would always win in such match-ups.
Regarding Vitali, his defense was shown to contain some flaws, as the overweight and out-of-prime Lewis was able to hurt him badly by punching open his face. Imagine the horrible things that a prime Lewis would have done to Vitali.

Ok, You should sit down and closely watch these fights: Lewis-Bruno, Lewis.- Mercer, Lewis- Tucker, Lewis-McCall, Lewis-Briggs, Lewis-Mavrovic, Lewis- Rahman, Lewis-Klitschko and i think you perception of reality would change a bit. Hes win over past their primes Holyfield and Tyson is bigger on the record then in reality.And dont forget, he was behind on every scorecard against Klitschko and a cut gave him a lucky escape.
I would probloby say Larry Holmes.
