    As it's a quiet week, how long would it take Big Len to unify all four belts today?

    Sobering thought, isn't it? We already know that if he was focused he could take the WBC in four rounds. While Wlad is technically better (some say) than his brother, I don't think he could take the punishment that Big Len would dish out and would be out of there around the sixth-eighth round even against a gunshy Big Len.

    Big Len seems to have problems with bigger guys, but that would be a spectacular KO of Valuev, and due to the sheer size differential I can't see poor old Surging Lyncathropy posing to much threat, sadly.

    Having said all this, I was looking at the 1981 top ten in the Ring Extra, and it makes today's bunch seem like an all-time high.

        I don't think Lewis had a problem with big guys, he blew out Ruddock, Grant and Golota, beat Akinwande in a dire bout, and had trouble with Briggs, but won easily in the end. He seemed to be much more aggressive against bigger guys, no more so, than in his last ever fight with Klitschko.

          I dont think Lennox could unify right now.
          Unless we are talking about a prime Lewis.

            Let's say Lewis of 2003.

              Can.

              Valuev - Probably most problems with this dude. Would outbox him
              though

              Wlad - chin - I think Lewis' suspect chin is less suspect than Wlad's suspect chin

              Lyachovic - Outbox

              Rahman - Been there, done that.
