Who's The Best Fighter On Lennox Lewis' Record?

[FlatLine]

Lewis has a record packed to the brim full of quality fighters, his record most probably won't be matched again in the heavyweight division. This is one of the reasons Al Bernstein calls Lewis the best heavyweight of all time.

But which of the fighters that Lewis beat would you consider the best of the bunch? Who is the best fighter on Lewis' record?

Evander Holyfield
Mike Tyson
Ray Mercer
Oliver McCall
Henry Akinwande
Vitali Klitschko
Tommy Morrison
Frank Bruno
David Tua
Donovan Ruddock
Gary Mason
Andrew Golota
Frans Botha
Michael Grant
Hasim Rahman
Shannon Briggs (lets go champ)
Tony Tucker
and many more..

If you consider when he fought those guys, I'd say Rahman. Holyfield, Klitschko are runners up. Not much credit from me for super washed up Tyson.

It has to be Vitali - who was young, fearless and at the top of his physical abilities (and Lewis on the decline) and who went on to rule after his loss to Lewis.

Holyfield is a better overall fighter than Vitali, but he wasn't at the top of his form and was declining.

Holyfield might be the best fighter Lewis faced, but Vitali is certainly his biggest win.

vitali klitschko

vitali klitschko

This....And that was one of the most exciting scraps Lennox has been in since Mercer and Rahman.

As far as best fighter at time id prolly say vitali. But even then I don't think vitali had reached his full peak just yet. But considering Lewis was at the end of his career and still the best it was a very quality win. I just wish there had been a rematch.

man i miss THAT heavyweight era

Vitali Klitschko because Lewis knew he got lucky in that fight the eye injury didn't tell the true story and look at the dominance Vitali sustained when he never picked up injuries in his career.
Next would be Ray Mercer a man I personally believe who beat Lewis and someone who Lewis said was his hardest fight.

man i miss THAT heavyweight era

And people thought that was a weak era smh.

I would say Vitali, Mercer, Holyfield and Golota at the time he fought him too.

[El-blanco]

Vitali and Evander. Totally shutting out tua was impressive as well, tua was very highly regarded at the time and Lewis made him look silly.
