He is a Wlad hater troll.
Lewis has the better resume AT THE MOMENT, but Wlad is only 31 and he has plenty of fights left.
The new improved Wladimir Klitschko is unstoppable right now and he will eventually surpass Lewis' resume and go down as one of the all time greats.
The Wlad hater should make a thread like this when Wlad's career is over. Stupid thread.
No Way, the heavyweight divison sucks so bad, no matter who Wlad beats his resume still will not be as stacked and lennox Lewis, its sad cause i like Wlad....if the comp rising and he's still standing then maybe, but were's the decent names...Sultan Ibragmov, Valuv, hahahA?
Wlad at 31-Brewster, Byrd x2, 40+ year old Mercer, Botha, McCline, Peter
Lennox at 31-Younger Mercer, Morrison, Ruddock, Bruno, Tucker
Its a close one. Which wins are better?
Younger Mercer or 40+ year old Mercer
Bruno or Brewster
Morrison or Botha+McCline
Ruddock or Peter
Byrdx2 or Tucker
Lewis turned pro at age 22, Klitschko turned pro at age 20. You're also forgetting that Klitschko already has 52 fights, while Lewis had 44 fights throughout his career. So Klitschko has aged quite a bit, probably not as "fresh" as Lewis was when he was 31. As far who has the better record? Lewis definitely. Wlad just beat up some good fighters, and washed up journeymen.

you can also sort of throw in Riddick Bowe, because of Lennox blasting him away in the Olympics right before they both turned pro, and then Bowe turning around and completely ducking Lennox. I mean, in this situation Bowe really was ducking him, he threw away the WBO title to stay away from Lewis and everything. but it depends if you want to count that as a 'win' or not. I think its quite a statement to make Riddick Bowe fear you so badly.
Bruno was better than Brewster. Bruno, as limited as he was, he earned his title the hard way, Ruddock lasted 12 rounds with Tyson, Sam Peter is garbage, Byrd has achieved more than Tucker but Tony was a talented HW. Tall, lanky, good jab. A bit like Wlad.
A peak Tony Tucker against Wlad is a pick 'em fight.

No he's called Lisa Lawer
Boyfriend or just someone you'd like to get jiggy with.
Be Jesus look at the size of his hands that gives it away straight away.
I know I started this obvious thread to prove to the Wlademites that were arguing with me last night.
I said that Wlad will not be considered as great as Lewis because of the competition fought and who's available left to fight. Because the division is in such a poor state and I can't see anyone that can give him the megafights to prove how great he is. But they would not have it and stated Lewis fought no-one but a shot Tyson and faded Holyfield. Even disregarding them 2 fighters his resume is still far superior and difficult for Wlad to match.
It's not Wlad hating on my behalf but stating something blatantly obvious to any knowledgable boxing fan.
K....I see.Lennox is an all time Great IMO and I don't think Wlad will ever be considered that.....even if he wins his next 10 fights by KO and retires....he'll never be a Lennox Lewis.....Lewis is one of the very few fighters that has defeated every man he ever fought.
I didn't vote for Wlad, that was Revs.
Lewis obviously has the better resume, this is one of the stupidest threads of all time.
This is laughable......But at least 53 out of 54 people who voted got the answer right.
Not doing too bad is it Gaz for a dumb thread.
But come on people you need to vote it's too close to call at the moment and your 1 vote could make all the difference.
Votes so far:-
Wladimir Klitchko = 1 vote
Lennox Lewis = 58 votes
lol at the 'sympathy' vote
dumbest thread today tbh

The answer to this thread is a formality. but it's not a dumb thread. When you consider some posters on here think beating Byrd, Brock and Brewster allude to some sort of greatness. Bollocks about Wlad surpassing Lewis based on a few good performances is quite a popular opinion by some.
