Steward has ironed out the flaws in Wlad, and he is now one of the better heavyweights we've seen in a very long time. Possibly since "prime," Bowe.

Bowe was champion before Lewis......Lewis was without a doubt better then Bowe.......Wlad has a long way to go before being better then Lewis or as good...Lennox was champ a long time and beat everyone he faced......He ruled the division when it had far better fighters then now....Age is why Lewis retired he knew it was his time.....

BS, Lewis quit because he wanted no part of Vitali again and the thought of fighting Wlad was even scarrier to him. The HW division did not die when Lewis left, it saved face by having a wuss leave.

I did feel sorry for Vitali because I had him winning but you can't fight with cuts as severe as that. Lewis did the smart thing and retired at just the right time...you can't knock him for that.

Perhaps that's what I should of said instead of something as inflamitory as he was a wuss. I just get mad at the thought that people believe the HW division died after he left. That's ridiculous. As far as I'm concerned, his record was no more impressive than that of other HWs and it's sad that he was only willing to face the old Tyson not the 90's Tyson.

Tyson payed to not have to fight Lewis thats fact i believe that was around in 1996 and Bowe also ducked him i mean what else can he do ?? he beat everyone there was to beat and never backed down from no one.

The 90's Tyson would have tore him up - in the nineties, that is; I think even Lewis thought so.

The never-to-be solved question of prime Lewis against prime Tyson, though ... different story. Closer to Lewis-Tua it would have been, IMO.

Tyson was sliding in 90s remember his back and forth war with Ruddock in there 2nd fight he got caught too many times by a slow plodding Ruddock yes Ruddock could bang but he was slow and plodding and had no defence and no real workrate either.

Valuev and a unification match against one fot he other "champs" is still on the table.

A rematch with Sam Peter would be good or a fight with Povetkin futher down the line

Yeah, I was really thinking late 80's pre-Buster, sorry.
