I think Vitali is grossly overrated due to his gutsy performance.I don't see his chin being "so much better" than Wlads like everyone seems to think.He just has'nt been caught on the button yet and he would have been had he fought Lennox 5 years ago.
he hasn't been hit on the button yet? have you seen the lewis fight? lewis landed a few flush shots that didn't even stun vitali.
yeah right, cause lewis didnt land flush hard uppercuts.
remeber this guy has never been kd, quite uniqe in 35 pro and bout 100 ammature fights
Though he did taste canvas against sanders, some referees would have counted that, he was hit by a punch at the same time he "tripped". Would he of tripped if he wasnt hurt? ive never seen him go down as easily as an England footballer before!
Maybe he caught his brothers "sugar illness" for a brief second, i think he was just panicing and trying to run away.
Are you serious????
Lewis landed one of the biggest uppercuts in HISTORY against Vitali and he was still standing.
Vitali gets hit often and has never really been hurt or even down!If that uppercut had caught him under the chin he may have gone down but it landed on the lips and just below the nose, ripping the lips open.

Well Lewis took Vitali even out of shape and essentially already retired....in his mind anyway.......so roll back the clock and he easily beats both Klits by KO also.:boxing:
yeah right, lewis was preparing for 1st contender johnson and vk for friggin cedric boswell, and you make the conclusion that vk was the better prepared fighter.....please.
Prime Lewis knocks both Wlad and Vit out. I could see him destroying Wlad inside 4 rounds. Vitali would be tougher but IMO he wouldn't last the distance.

I agree. the above poster either hasnt seen all of vits fights or he's simply being biased

if your saying he beats wlad with ease and without danger your kidding yourself. I agree that he would stop wlad but it would be a dangerous fight for lewis in that he'd be fighting the best 2 fisted puncher he ever faced his own size. lewis's chin wasnt glass like many say but it sure wasnt steel either. it would be a dangerous fight for him but he;s much stronger mentally and I think he'd stop wlad at some point in the fight

there was a hell of a lot more than just a good fight with lewis. he never fought an elite guy besides lewis but he totally dominated a slew of top 20 guys with ease. he isnt overrated at all nor is his chin. lewis landed the same upper cuts that knocked other guys out and sanders caught him walking in with a straight left that knocked 20 other guys out in the first round. he had a granite chin,,good upper body movement and underrated hand speed for a big man

He'd KO Wlad but not Vitali, Vitali would be challenging enough for Lewis to UD him..

I'd say Lewis no doubt! Based on acomplishment alone.
Wlad is too soon to judge and Vitali we never got to see enough of him.
I don't think Wlad has picked yet and he is clearly head and shoulders above today's competition.
Vitali - I don't think we ever saw him in his prime due to his injuries, although that fight with Lennox did show he is as tough as nail.
If it wasn't for his showlder injury in the byrd fight and the cuts with Lennox... who knows, 35 fights 34 by a KO, we might have been saying he is the best HW of our times. :dunno:
In their primes?
who takes it?
probably lewis although wlad would be dangerous for him in that he has power in both hands. lewis is so much tougher mentally that he'd probably stop wlad at some point as long as he was focused and determined. vitali he already beat in a tough fight so there's no reason to even comment on that
