Lewis stops AJ, Wilder, and might get decisioned by King Kong. Miller would be a war. Fury stops Lewis in a barn burner. No HW beats Fury from any era.
How would prime Lennox Lewis do against the current big 3 Heavyweights?

Lennox would crush Joshua and wilder in a few rounds. Be some jabs, and then the right hand would crush wilder and Joshua.. horrible style matchup for both, Lennox owns them within 6 if not 2-3 rds. As soon as that right hand is unleashed, it’s over.
Fury is a tough out for anyone in the history of the division simple because he is a giant with very good footwork, movement, jab, and ring savvy. I’d still favor Lennox, but harder style than Joshua or wilder. Lennox via close decisionComment

Lewis would KO these bums. Fury is not impossible to hit, even small Cunningham knocked him down. If a horrible boxer like Wilder can land a near knockout shot on Fury, an ATG like Lewis would absolutely land more precisely and often than Windmill. The only chance I give Joshua and Wilder is if an overconfident Lewis let's his guard down and they land a lucky shot, but Lewis will destroy them in the rematch.Comment

lewis could krush, but he would likely be more cautious against the bigger hitters of the three.Comment

Hmmm... I'm not sure what 40 KOs means to you. He has literally stopped all but one of his opponents, and of the two that have lasted the distance only one has had his hand raised - after enduring a near-death experience. I really don't know what more evidence you need. This isn't rocket science.
Do you think Ray Robinson is also a more dangerous fighter than Wilder? How about Carlos Zarate?
If you want to argue that Vitali was a better Hw than Wilder, OK. But not the one that fought Lewis. That guy was very much an unfinished product and he gave Lewis fits. Without such favorable officiating, Lewis might've taken a loss.Comment
