Every year this poll must be done. Prime Lewis vs Wladimir.

I want to see Wladimir fighting Tyson Fury before I even make a proper prediction.

Don't be an arse mate, Fury is Godlike, Wlad has done nothing to deserve a shot at 2fast.

You are just as bad as the USA USA USA guys. We get it you live on a piece of land, congratulations.

Lewis was much more aggressive against bigger guys. He would have seperated Wlad from his senses with that uppercut he landed on Vitali

Riveting rebuttal.

Sorry arse mate I don't make penpals with neo****s.

KHANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN 2fast Innit

Its like that Gonzalez kid who was beating up Ricky Burns, he could of coasted and won on points but he quit with a hand injury.
He didn't want it enough and he quit. He gave the fight away just like Vitali did all those years ago against Chris Byrd.

I don't see Gonzalez's fans saying it wasn't a clear win or trying to take anything away from Burns victory.

I think odds are Lewis would stop Wlad, but it's as much speculation as my belief that Vitali would win a Lewis rematch.

Lewis was "unmotivated"=much lamer and more arbitrary than any excuse Elroy is making, innit arse?

The only thing Wladimir does better than Lewis is clinch and lean on people.

Wouldn't work against Lewis who isn't some fat little pudding like Povetkin.

wlads jab and left hook are heavier and hes a bit quicker. Id much rather be hit by a lews uppercut or right hand than a wlad hook

[beez721]

Even the out of shape and unmotivated Lewis who mangled his brother's face would beat Wladimir.

He wouldn't be able to take what Vitali did

lewis on that night wouldn't have made it past that second round if it was wlads right hand that landed flush

[mannyman]

Wlad hits harder than anyone Lennox faced(and who has Lennox faced who wasn't past prime and faded?) and we know Lennox has a glass jaw(McCall and Rachman iced him with one punch). Wlad has never been iced.

Lewis fought in one of the best eras ever. Look what an out of shape Lewis did to Vitalis face ffs. Just go on YouTube and wacht highlights of Lewis KOing the top HWs in a quality era. Wlad can't even KO a bulked up cruiserweight.

Why does this poll have to be made every year?

To allow wannabe revisionist historians and propagandists to interpret events to better suit their feggity agenda a little at a time. That way nobody notices.

That's why.

This is a good fight but Lewis wins, probably via stoppage. Wlad has a great stick and Lewis struggled with good jabbers (Mercer, Holyfield II and even Rahman) so I could see that being a problem for him. However, Wlad has similar issues (a washed-up Mercer turned his eye black by landing a few solid ones) and Lewis has the better jab of the two. And is better adept at coming forward behind that jab, threw mean combinations and had devastating power in both fists. Wlad fights cautious against light hitters. He'd be on his heels a lot against a fighter actually longer than him, more powerful, as quick if not quicker and able to take a better punch. This would be a decent scrap but given their styles, I don't see Wlad lasting the distance.
