      mccline dropped his sorry ass 3 times in the fight before vitali. peter never really beat anyone good. james toney and 40 year old oleg maskaev=top heavyweight!

        It doesn't matter who won. Lewis still has a far superior resume.

          Don't compare a competitive fight (Mathysse-Garcia) to a fight where one fighter nearly got shut out for half a fight. That's not fair to anyone's life.

          Yes. We know Lewis was able to land a (one) punch that cut Vitali in a place (over the eye) that would warrant a stoppage on 75% of boxing matches. Regardless of who's winning or losing.

          That's just one of the rules and regulations of boxing.

            mccline could be dangerous at times. he also dropped byrd and put briggs down hard. peter came back and won the fight. anyway,,,it was still an impressive victory in a first fight comeback at 37 yrs old and 3 years out. alot of people thought peter would knock vitali out

              I can't say evander is his best win.. Evander wasn't prime anymore and I think that version of evander would lose to the versions mercer, ruddock, Bruno, Morrison that Lennox has fought
              Yeah but holyfield still held 2 of the 4 belts and just came off of wins against tyson and moorer. Vaugn bean dont count for nothing..so holyfield 2 years older and still winning should still be lewis' signature win.....tyson was way more past his prime, then holyfield was when lewis dismantled him...

                Like I said before, I don't know really what is Lewis' best win, but I do know it ain't Holyfield.. Yes Holyfield was the big marquee career defining fights for Lennox because he made him universally recognized as the champ. But that version of Holyfield was inferior to the versions of ruddock, mercer, Golata, etc that Lewis fought... I consider that group to contain his best win, I'm just not sure which one it is
                If ruddock mercer, golata ect were so much better or "DANGEROUS" whatever you want to say then holyfield how come none of them lasted the entire fight??(besides mercer) holyfields 2 nd fight against lewis was a great fight that was competive,had it 8-4 lewis but still competitve enough to make it a good fight when he was conceivably supposed to be a shot fighter....valuev is a crap fighter imo but was hugee and holyfield beat him! Could razor,mercer, or golata beat the giant?? I dont think so...so it should be safe to say imo that holyfield is lewis biggest win..
