    Someone earlier brought up that Golota never beat a top 10 contender in his career. Is that true?

      Are you saying Wlad's resume is btter than Lewis's?
      Are you trying to put words in my mouth?

      Lewis resume right now is superior. Saying that Tua would beat most of Wlad's resume is ******. Chambers, who Wlad KOd yesterday, would probably school Tua like Byrd did, as would a number of other guys in Wlad's resume.

        Why are you ducking my question? If Tua is such a great win for Lennox, then Byrd must be too for Wlad since he took Tua to school.

          Lewis' Defenses:

          Frank Bruno
          Phil Jackson
          Henry Akinwande
          Andre Golota
          Shanno Briggs
          Zeljko Mavrovic
          Holyfield
          Francois Botha
          Michael Grant
          David Tua
          Mike Tyson
          Vitali Klitschko

          Klitschko Defenses:

          Derrick Jefferson
          Charles Shufford
          Francois Botha
          Ray Mercer
          Jameel McCline
          Calvin Brock
          Ray Austin
          Lamon Breswster
          Sultan Ibragimov
          Tony Thompson
          Ruslan Chagaev
          Hasim Rahman
          Eddie Chambers

          I would say that Wlad has 6-8 fights left in him which could bring his career total over 20 titles defenses and put him in very select company. I believe only Holmes and Louis had as many as 20 in the Heavyweight Division.

          Looking at Lewis' list it isn't very impressive, especially considering the high regard he is held in today. His biggest and most impressive win is arguably Vitali Klitschko, a guy who most Lewis supporters consider to be highly overrated.
          And.........many thought he would have went on to lose that fight had he not cut Vitali. I'm one of them.

          All in all, when it's said and done, Wlad will be about the same place Lennox is on the all time list. Not at the top but most certainly top ten.

              Frank Bruno
              Phil Jackson
              Henry Akinwande
              Andre Golota
              Shanno Briggs
              Zeljko Mavrovic

              Francois Botha
              Michael Grant
              David Tua
              Mike Tyson
              Vitali Klitschko
              Oliver Mccall
              Tomyy Morrison
              Ray Mercer
              Hasim Rahman
              Tony Tucker

              Losses: Mccall, Rahman. Note: Avenged




              Wladimir's Noteable Resume:

              Derrick Jefferson
              Charles Shufford
              Francois Botha
              Ray Mercer
              Jameel McCline
              Calvin Brock
              Ray Austin
              Lamon Breswster
              Sultan Ibragimov
              Tony Thompson
              Ruslan Chagaev
              Hasim Rahman
              Eddie Chambers
              Monte Barrett
              Chris Byrd
              Samuel Peter

              Losses: Sanders, Brewster, Purity. Wlad reveneged his lsos to Brewster.

              Both have very good names, but for me, Lewis has better. He also revenged his losses which helps him while Wladimir has not.

              Also do not even say Vitali beat up the other two guys for Wlad. That is ****** for me. Both brothers want Haye, it doesn't count on either guys resume if one beats him up.

                  What triangle theories? I'm tired of having to read your idiotic posts in every Klitschko thread, when you almost never have any valid points to make or anything to add to the discussion, but I'll give you a chance: explain why Byrd is not a good win for Wlad but Tua is a good win for Lewis. Apart from you being biased against the Klitschkos of course.

                    Who on that list at the time Lennox defeated them would have had a shot at beating the Wlad that stiffened Chambers last night?

                    That's what I thought.

                      Rahman isn't on Lewis' list and Holyfield should have been counted twice as he defended the WBC belt against him twice. You haven't included the McCall defense either or we only including winning defenses for Lewis? You can twist it however you want but nothing can disguise the fact that Wlad is the most boring champ in the worst HW division in a long long time. Lewis beat his older and better brother on a weeks notice by punching 5 cuts around his eye, again you can twist it however you like but Vitali's face was ****ed and he had to be stopped and surely you're not going to make a case for Wlad being able to beat Lewis. Lewis would've stopped him in 3, on a weeks notice hahahaha. Also how can either Klitchko establish a legacy without fighting the best out there i.e. eachother or Haye (without the bull**** 3 fight slave deal)?

                      When was the last time someone actually fought back against Wlad? Chagaev is a ****ing bum.

                      Haye by 5th round KTFO.
