    Who will have a higher all-time ranking? Lennox or Wlad?

    Wlad's career isn't over yet obviously, but in your opinion who will historians say was better when all is said and done?

      Quite clearly Lewis.

      I think Wladimir would have a considerably better resume if his brother wasn't around. Although that could possibly mean a few more losses.

      With Steward, he'd have no real problems.

        If you say Wlad you clearly don't know **** about boxing. Lennox is arguably the greatest heavyweight of all time.

          I don't see why Wladimir can't pass him. I don't think he is far off at all myself.

            Corrie Sanders is in heaven, so Wlads chances of beating everyone he ever faced is gone.

              If Wlad beats next dominant champion I don't see why he wouldn't be regarded at least same as Lennox.

              He fought 20 more fights (by the time he retired, it will probably be 30). He lost only 3 times (lennox lost 2 and 1 draw). He beat many good HW in their primes (lennox did beat some ATG but not near their primes).

              I can't see the reason why Lennox should be regarded higher..

                And why is this so important? if those fighters were some ATG/HOF I would understand, but Wlad lost to them when he was very far from his prime and Sanders practically retired after Vitali beat him.

                  Once again.. Wlad fought more fights because he fought more bums during the building record stage of his career.

                  Example:

                  Lennox's 15th fight opponent record:35-0 (35 KO)
                  Wladimir's 15th fight opponent record: 7-31


                  Wladimir heading into Sanders ALREADY HAD 40+ FIGHTS..

                    It shows Wlad was a coward and couldnt face the men who defeated him.

                    Combine that with his already weak opposition, Wlad doesnt have a snowballs chance in hell to surpass Lennox. On top of that Lennox is not losing anymore fights, Wlad still can.
