      Let's not pretend that Lewis doesn't have the better record.

      I dunno which I would pick head to head. I tend to believe Lewis looks better than almost every Heavyweight ever when things are going his way, but there's a direct relationship between the reduction of his confidence and the improvement of his competition. Wlad (at his best) would be the best fighter Lewis ever fought.

      The issue of course, is that he'd enter the fight potentially believing that he only needs to touch Wlad to win. Mercer, Holyfield, Tua, Tyson, Vitali - they all had better chins than Wlad. They certainly weren't afraid to get hit.

      My nephews used to watcha show called Power Rangers. They had these mummies they would fight. But the power rangers were humans who could beat them by hitting their emblem on the chest. That's Wlad, he looks immortal, unless you get to his chin.

      While we're at it. I dunno if Wlad's hook isn;t better thanShavers' overheand right. I think shaver's accuracy was amazing. But his opponents were generally little more than human punching bags. In terms of skill, Wlad's opposition was weaker, but they were bigger men in their physical prime.

        - -Pretend what you will, but both Ks have better records than Lenny.

        And they never sold out to DKing like he did.

          No they don't.

          Just his Mercer fight (whichhe lost) exceeds anything on Vitali's record. Sanders was more dangerous, but no one was as "good".

          I agree about not selling outto King, though.

            - -Lewie fought more HOFers, but those HOFers were ducking the Ks including Lewie.

            Could do the research, but you're better suited to pulling your thumb out your arrears for introspection and freestreaming.

              I was just getting into Boxing around that time. So I am sure, with all the noise that comes with discovering soemthing new, I missed those instances.

              Do you mind sharing who dodged the Klitchkos?

              I'll be the first to say that no one not named Tyson Fury beats either of them, at least not consistently.

              But their fans - perhaps in reaction to the ridiculous hate they garner - exaggerate their abilities.

              As harda Wlad hit, and as sound a Boxer he was, I would think a lot of Boxers would like their chances against him.
