I have a feeling Lyle that if Lewis had not fought Vitali, you would have said something along the lines that the Klits would have knocked out Lewis easily. Just a hunch.
I thought they would be competitive at the least. Let's be honest neither Vitali nor Lennox were 100% prepared for that fight. Lennox Lewis is an all-time great. In hindsight Wlad wasn't ready for that step up, now he could hold his own but back then Wlad's only hope would be to pour on the offense early and catch Lewis and follow up.
