Prime Vitali VS Prime Lennox Lewis?

[AlexKid]

Who wins and how?

I think Vitalis chin holds up and he wins on points due to a better work rate/better endurance, which is a weakness in Lennox. (So long as he doesnt get cut which he rarely does, or get KOed which again he very rarely does)

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Prime vitali got stopped by an old out of shape lewis,,

prime lewis would carve him up even worse IMO

[Humean]

I think the most likely result would be a Lewis decision victory, close kind of fight that Lewis gets control of by the mid rounds by his superior jab and better defence. Vitali might even get dropped at some point. If prime Lewis fought prime Vitali Klitschko ten times then Lewis would win probably 7 or 8 of the 10.

yea,,,cant see how anyone can argue for vitali. he lost to an older out of shape lewis. doesnt make much sense for him to do any better against a slimmer younger lennox. that said I dont think any version of lennox wipes vitali out early. vitali is just too tough and awckward

[GeneralZod]

Vitali couldn't beat the old Lennox (and no, being up on the scorecards doesn't count as a win)

That's exactly what I'd have said....almost to the word. Spooky!

I'd like this hypothetical match-up to take place with both combatants being aware of both the outcome of the real contest and the discussions that it has generated.

Hopefully then, Lennox would come out and put Vitali to sleep and this non-issue to bed.

Ohh, that was tetchy!

My apologies Alex. That was an NSB only attitude.

Carry on.

Lewis wins easily, in their prime Lewis has experience and more power.
Vitali has never fought high caliber fighters and Lewis has, and won.
I guess Vitali wins if;
Lewis doesn't show
trips getting in the ring and is stabbed by one of the national flags
gets a migraine headache and has a temp of 104*
falls in love with Vitali and refusses to hit him, hard!
takes a dive for the gate money?


get the point! Once you start making excusses to get a victory your just back peddling!! The match up isn't that good of a fight to begin with. A good heavyweight contender against an average guy! I don't hold either one in high regard when it comes to overall talent and skill level! Ray.
