    I like what he does, he is still winning almost every fight by stoppage, and he is making it virtually impossible to hit him minus the Thompson fight.

    I thought it was hypocritical of LL to criticize Wlad for using the same cautious, jab-happy style he used to dominate the HWs of the 90s. Wlad is the same as him, he's been caught and KO'd by lesser opponents and consequently takes very few risks. Watch LL's fight against a dangerous puncher like Tua, its the same as what Wlad does now.

    Difference between Lennox and Wlads jabbing style is Lennox used his jab as a set up then he went out for an assult...Wlad is scared to take a shot at times........Lennox was far from boring...a man who fought and beat everyone there was in the HW division during the second greatest era of HWts and retired with a 73% KO ratio can not be that boring.....

    Lennox could also take a hell of a punch and did not mind doing so if need be when engaging...

    As for his fight against Tua Tua at the time was a murderous puncher...Lennox took massive shots from him...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSwfV-QFQSE

    How does that resemble Wlad and the reaction he shows to punches coming at him?...and those are clips from the fight you mentioned.....

    Tua was 37-1 with all but 3 of his 37 wins by KO...was Lewis supposed to stand in front of him and suck up punches to prove to you he could...

    Lennox faced Vitaly, Tyson, Rahman, Briggs, Grant, McCall, Morrison, Ruddock...all dangerous punchers of their time....a man worried about dangerous punchers does not have half his resume of wins against them

    I just don't think they are very similiar.Both huge and employ superb jabs but I think Lewis was a bit more sturdy/Tougher than Wlad,more diverse and pron to punch back in combination.....go for the KO.I don't see that instinct in Wlad.Both could stink it out at times with ugly bouts,Lewis vs.Tucker,Mavoric mainly but he stood up in some mutual battles as well...Mercer,Vitali,Holyfield 2,Briggs.Wlad had Williamson & Peter as gut checks,ugh.

    damn,Im slow today
