      Because I'm a dumbass.

      No, really it's because when I clicked the post button, it didn't act like it was going, but I guess it was.

        It's difficult to say without seeing scientific stats. Lewis has KO'd much better opponents so I'll say what I see: Lennox Lewis.

          He may not be speaking about power, just technique. Lewis got more hip rotation when he laded his bombs, Klitschko throws power shots whilst upright, doesn't get as much leverage, tries to 'stay tall' as they say.

            Wlad has 44 KOs in 52 fights for a .84% KO rate.
            LL has 32 Ko's in 44 fights for a ,72% KO rate.

            That's just for fights, it doesn't take into consideration the opponants or how durable they were.

            PS-I'm not that smart. I telephoned my kids with the numbers and they figured it out. I'm not real good at all with numbers.

              no he didnt. he said he thinks wlads right hand is as heavy but quicker and lewis replied with "its about the same". anyway,,,,I think the right hands are equally as powerful and wald has the harder left hook by far. wlad is the overall harder 2 fisted puncher

                Lampley said this to Lennox,

                "Emanuel Steward says that what he did with you was, in essence, to get you to fight the way a big man should fight. Wladimir is 6 feet 7 inches tall. If Emanuel can accomplish everything he wants to accomplish with Wladimir, and leaving aside the power of the right hand, he's never going to be able to punch like you. Is he going to end up looking more and more like you in the ring?"

                This was before the second Chris Byrd fight, and all of this was said after the Mayweather Jr.-Judah fight.
