Title Defenses: W. Klitschko 13 Lennox Lewis 12

[BrooklynBomber]

Wlad, at this point, imo, became a better coordinated fighter, Lewis might have a better upper body movement, but Wlad's footwork **** over Lennox's any day. I, in fact, have never seen a man this big be so good on his feet and regain his balance so well.

Lewis' defenses were against the better fighters.

Lewis' defenses were against the better fighters.

But by how much? I think only the narrowest of margins separate their resumes as is and Wlad has 2-3 more years of domination left.

I don't know if anyone has made a remark about this but last night with his victory over Chambers Wladimir has eclipsed the career total defenses of Lennox Lewis.

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.

It's much more impressive than the fighters Wlad has beaten.

Narrowest of margins? No. This era is one of the worst in history for the heavyweight division. Lewis' era was good.

Wladimir's best opponents would lose to Lewis' best opponents.

Not a chance, the best on Wlad's resume easily beat the Tyson and Tua that Lewis beat. Lewis was a huge favorite going in and Tyson was nothing but a 3 round fighter.

i'm glad you agree.

No, all bias aside, Wlad's is actually better. Wlad's list has many fighters who had never been stopped before.

Nearly all of Lennox's opponents had been previously KOed and were past their prime.

I know why you hate Wlad, you racist bastard.

very good point. you can't judge someone's resume just based on the names of that resume alone. you have to judge at WHAT POINT those names were in their respective careers. Wlad KTFO many prime people who never lost, never even been knocked down whereas most of the guys on Lewis's resume were past their prime and/or coming off losses or have been KTFO previously many times etc
