Who was better, Lewis or Wlad?

2 forgettable clinchers who bored us to tears. seeing wlad clinch povetkin 176 times or whatever i counted or seeing lewis hold grant with one hand and hit him with the other for 3 knockdowns always makes me laugh.

One face, one name, one champion, he go by the name of Lennox Lewis

Definitely Lennox. He was the better version of Wlad.

kinda obvious, not sure why this is being asked.

If Lewis beat Bowe, '96 Tyson, Byrd, Moorer, Rahman and McCall the first time and retired undefeated, he'd have a strong case as the GOAT at HW. I suppose we can say that when ali lost to frazier and norton and also louis when he lost to schmelling...as for lewis vs bowe it was bowe who threw his title in the bin rather than face lewis.... and you are joking mentioning chris byrd lol. Lewis beat them all and it was actually tyson who was stripped of his world title in 1996 and had to pay lewis 4 million to step aside when lewis was his mandatory. Know your history son

Vitali!!! dont even put vlads name in there Vitali didn't lose very many rounds period his whole career. Without the cut it would have been over for Lewis.. it WAS over for lewis with the cut, he was of retirable age either way.

Lewis easily. Had the better skill set, fought better competition and was a lot more exciting to watch. He was great for boxing.

Vitali!!! dont even put vlads name in there Vitali didn't lose very many rounds period his whole career. Without the cut it would have been over for Lewis. He hit his prime after that fight and would beaten Lewis even easier as a Champion.

Lewis and it really isnt close

I give Lewis the edge. He got careless and KOed twice and reversed both loses by KO wins shortly after the loses. Lewis only lost twice. Wlad was very good but he lost numerous times and did not reverse all his losses.

wlad was on the level of the contenders of lewis, and not the good ones..the ones who didnt quite make the cut.

I rate Lewis higher but both are criminally underrated, especially Wlad.

--- Well, sometimes you need a plumber's helper, hence the need for Lewis fans. Never once defended his unified title, a lost career after having give up consecutively every title he won. Great nearly lad comedy though...priceless...

Lewis along with Ali and joe louis rank as the 3 best heavyweights of all time and each one could be put at the top. Lewis beat tyson,holyfield,vitali klitchcko,ruddock,mercer,tucker,morrison,weaver,bruno,biggs,golota and bowe in the olympic final...avenged both his losses and won the heavyweight title 3 times and retired as champion. That record when you actually break it down is simply outstanding. I say lewis beats any heavyweight in history.

--- Wlad never one punched like Lewis with a VASTLY Superior record, but admittedly Lewis and his fans make the best comedy. Keep up the good work for the nearly lads, a new division?

Lennox Lewis and Wladimir Klitschko have a lot in common. They were both tall, hard-punching HWs with weak chins, they were both dominant HWs, and they were both trained by Emanuel Steward. But, who was the better fighter between them? Lennox Lewis.... well, he was more exciting

Lewis fought everyone. He redeemed both of his KO losses. It's not even close.

Lewis, clearly. And I was always a fan of Wlad (and generally of the Klitschkos).

Lennox Lewis would have destroyed Wladimir Klitschko. Stylistic nightmare for Wlad.
