Interesting point though is to notice that Vitali is sparring as a southpaw there, I wonder how proficient he is at that and if he gave Wlad some interesting practice dealing with someone that size and an awkward style.Comment

I'd still put my money to this day on either brothers to beat ANYONE now or back then, only Lewis has a chance with them.Comment

There is a special class for both Klitschko's and Lennox I believe that transcends all others at HW.
Kind of like "SuperATG"Comment

Looks like this is a good time for "the facts"
Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis
THE TRUTH
Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.
Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis barely survived the 2nd round, he was badly hurt, holding on for dear life, wobbling everywhere and staggering around the ring like a drunk. Lewis was badly hurt several times in the fight and was getting outboxed, outworked, outmuscled and outlanded by Vitali.
