    Could Wlad handle the fading power, obviously the klitschkos against lewis would be completely unarmed of their superior height and reach and neither would be able to dominate lewis behind the jab like they do everyone else.

    It was one of those questions spoke in a pub a few days ago. Even a fading lewis managed to stop a prime vitali in the 5th controversial or not.

    Would Wlad stand a chance against the power
    Could vitali expose the weaknesses he managed to expose in his prime
    would haye stand a single chance of perhaps catching lewis with a rahman esque knockout punch

    ??

    Sorry but Haye would Knock out a old fading Lewis within 4 rounds mate,without a doubt.

    I would never condone lewis returning to a boxing ring and quite frankly it would probably make me feel ill.

    But just out of pure curiosity, if lennox lewis could return as half the man he once was would that still be enough to take the klitschkos and the rest.

    A prime lennox lewis wouldnt have a single problem taking out either brother, if you dont know that then you obviously dont know much of lennox lewis or heavyweight boxing. Im just wondering what with the division being in the state it is could half that fighter (lets say the very man who looked completely shot against vitali) return tommorow how exactly would he get on.

    He'd still be fat and still a below average boxing commentator.

    I think a lot of you guys are either grossly over estimating Lewis' abilities at this point in his life, or are grossly underestimating the HW division.

    Lewis comes back and he gets killed by anyone in the top 20 IMO. He's 45 years old and he hasn't fought in 7 years. And he was SHOT in that last fight, 7 years ago. What the hell do you expect of him now?

    Fighting the belt holders today, I think he would win all the belts back, and then hand in the WBA because he no wanna fight John Ruiz. After April 3rd, he would win all the belts, except the WBA. Ruiz would crush Lewis.
