Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
Lennox Lewis is a gentleman and he promised me a rematch. Everybody wants to see the second part of the story. I never lost the fight. The doctor allowed him to keep his title, I was ahead on points
This guy is OBSESSED~! I hope Sam Peter KTFO all of the HW's..Maskaev,anad both Klits in particualr because they are looking to screw him!
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
Vitali is delusional. If he fought he won the fight that night, maybe he should have looked in the mirror and told it to his face :P
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
I gotta agree.
Although i really do like Vitali, hear should change the record.
Lennox has done what so many fighter should have done...stay retired !
With regards the fight - Vitali's face looked like he'd gone the windscreen at 70mph and landed on a barbed-wired fence.
They had to sew it all back together again.

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
:cwm33: he needs to shut the fk up about this! If there had been a rematch vitali woulda gotta an even bigger arse kickin!
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
It may be quite possible that Vitali suffers from some obsessive mental disorder. I wonder if he has posters of Lennox Lewis in his
room and watches the tape of the fight every night. What gives with this character? Lewis has been out of the sport for years and I don't think
that he's coming back.
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
yeah he cant admit he lost
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
I agree with him Tottaly!! He beat Lennox Lewis badly!
It was a complete domination! how can anyone think other wise??
Uh.......Vitali Klitschko is the black guy........right??

that old chestnut nearly 4 years on. hes beginning to sound like a broken record. it certainly wasnt the ring lights that destroyed his face. he lost the fight legitimately (no headbutts) simple as that! I still dont understand all the fuss.
maybe ken buchanan should call out roberto duran after the late punch in their title fight eh
he needs to move on!!!!

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
Good Vitali, then you should rest easy at night.

na i don't then he will moan about the ref "i was ahead on points but the ref stopped counting at 10" rules are rules u big Klit, stop crying about it.

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
Its funny because Lennox looked really bad that fight, and he was comming back with a vengeance as the fight was progressing, and IMO I can't see Vitali continuing to take those rights the whole fight. I have never been convinced he had the jaw of Tua or Mercer... after all he is related to Wladimir.
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
klitschko really needs to get over lewis and focus on what is in front of him
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
People always give Wladimir he11 for not avenging his loses and when Vitali says he wants to fight Lewis again everyone freaks out and says get over it?Which is it? ::**
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
.....it's hard to "just get over" a fight that was ripped out of his hands by the cut and then the promised rematch that never happened....he has that driving him and I feel bad for whoever gets in his way.
You guys act like this kind of RIVALRY never happens in boxing.....
Foreman-Holmes, Larry ALWAYS called out George and STILL DOES!
Shavers-Foreman, same as above
Tommy Hearns-Ray Leonard...Hearns called Ray out on Ringside just a couple months ago!!!!
Frazier-Ali.....I bet you Joe STILL wants to whip Ali's ass
Fighters have memories like elephants.....they remember the littlest slights and the most insignificant events if they perceived any kind of disrespect.
All I can say is get off Vitali's ass....so he wants a rematch with Lewis so fucking what he's entitled to say what he wants. Vitali lost the fight but he feels like it was like Ali-Quarry I where he had a chance to win if it weren't for the cut and honestly A LOT of people agree with him.
And Landmine yeah Vitali was bloody but what does it say about a guy who took that damage and never quit vs a great champion like Lennox Lewis?
Show some respect when you talk about one of the best heavyweight fights of the last decade! Both those guys put their hearts out there and showed people what heavyweight boxing was all about and a freak accident caused the stop of the fight.
And when I say "the cut" I'm talking about the one on his eyelid and not the one on his cheek....that was all Lennox right there.

If he thinks being 2 rounds ahead after only 6 rounds gives him more of a claim to be the winner of that fight, than bein the guy that inflicted so much damage on his opponent that they needed 50 stitches, had to be stopped by the doctor for their own safety and was out of the ring for 9 months the he is delusional. Makes me laugh when people say Klitchko was winning, taKe a look at the guys face, who looked like they won that fight LMAO

Please consider signing the petition to the WBC
to sanction the heavyweight boxing match between
the current WBC Champion, Oleg Maskaev and Vitali
Klitschko, "Champion Emeritus".

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
It's not odd that people who think Vitali craps gold will make all the excuses in the world for him. Truth is, if a motivated Lewis would have took him up on his
offer and gave him a rematch, he would have been KTFO. Klitschko was gassed out and getting ready to lay down.

Lewis gave it his best and yeah he didn't prepare to fight Vitali but all you dicks forget that Vitali didn't prepare to fight Lewis either!
Gased out! That's bullshit, Vitali took Lewis' hardest round and was still standing and I think Vitali had his second wind.
It's a moot point to argue about it now, the only people making a big deal out of it are the Vitali haters who don't like the fact he may get a title shot over Sam Peter.
Vitali lost vs Lennox Lewis but he did so in a manner that captured the attention of everyone in boxing and gave one of boxings most dominant champions a run for his money. And people have still not figured out how to accept that the way the fight ended left a lot of loose ends and controversy.
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
good shout lyle. 8)
lewis was a bit ill prepared for the klitchiko fight. probably more ill prepared than vitali was so that shit about vitali being gassed out is crap. and lewis was looking a bit chunky in that fight aswell. vitali did give lennox a run for his money but lewis was still the man.
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
By the time a rematch was made back then Lewis wouldn't have been much better off.....I mean we all saw Vitali walk through Johnson, Sanders, and Williams.
No offense to Lewis but his days were numbered at the top which is why he retired....it was a changing of the guard fight.
That fight was one for the ages....if Vitali didn't get cut it would have been even better though
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
You can't show any disrepect for either fighter after that bout.
A great great fight for both guys!
Most people do feel that if anything it takes away from Vitali's axccomplishments in this fight (in spite of it being a loss) to talk this way now.
I think this fight did more for Vitali's career than any other.
It's part of the nature of the sport that guys are different ages and you can't keep a guy around for ever while you peak .
Get over it,build on it. Go on and create your own legacy.
He can do it. Will he?
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
I remember when some vit fan was posting the other week how lennox was haunted by him and his brother. I put him right and now his own man is by constantly whining on about it.
Get over it vit FFS

As I have posted before this kind of thing happens in boxing. A fighter feels he got the short end of the stick and has a grudge vs another fighter.
Vitali wants his rematch that he was promised but if he doesn't get it, it will not keep him from achieving greatness. Why can't people understand that? He has a rival, Lennox Lewis a guy who FOR YEARS went without a rival.....Tyson had his Bruno's and Rudduck's and Bowe and Holyfield had each other but Lewis never had his rival until Vitali came along. Great fighters need each other like that...and no one has stepped out of the shaddows to give Vitali a new rivalry...... which is why he is so vocal about fighting Lennox Lewis again

That's fine and all. But when is he going to realize that Lewis ain't coming back? His crying and bitching about a fight that he didn't win is fucking annoying.

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
....I already posted an answer to that dude.
Tommy Hearns just called out Ray Leonard this past year.....fighters carry grudges and they talk about them a lot those things drive fighters in training and so on.
If you're tired of hearing about it, don't listen to it, if you're tired of reading it then stop.

It's one thing if Lewis were still fighting. Than I guess it's understandable. But he's not. He's retired. He sounds like a obsessed female stalker as much as he mentions Lewis.

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"

perhaps you should get used to it, it's nothing new in boxing

What the fuck do they got to do with it? Not a damn thing. I got no problem with Vitali coming back and getting a title shot before Peter. He retired with the belt so he should be allowed to fight for it. But he should fight the fighter he was suppose to fight when he retired/quit/punked out (whatever you want call it). Hasim Rahman. Call it an interim title match. If you want. And let the winner fight Oleg. Let Peter wait.

Hearns can't even form coherent sentences anymore. ;D C'mon, Lyle. Klit was going to get dropped in a fight with a fat and out-of-shape Lewis. Merchant may have said it best when he commented that Klit may have won the drama end of the fight. You have to wonder what a prepared Lewis would have done to him. Johnson, Sanders, Williams... ::** Sanders was a fat bum when he fought big Klit sister and still took all his best shots. I'm so fed-up with Klitheads making excuses and hanging on the Lewis fight like it's some form of vindication for Vitali. It just showed that he could take a good punch (unlike his little sister) and can't close the deal when the competition steps up. As for Johnson and Williams... :lolhaha: :lolololol: :looroll: where are they now?
Does Vitali really think that he can pull a 40+ year old champion with a secure legacy out of retirement because he couldn't get the job done the first time around?

Why should Peter have to wait?
Did his contract state then he doesn't get a title shot IF Vitali comes out of retirement? If it does then tough sh!t. if it doesnt,,,...sue away!
He should get all of his sanctioning fees back AT LEAST! plus damages in the millions!
If the contract is complete with an emeritus clause then Peter is a whiner and should STFU! Id like to see the contracts! probably 200 pages long!

Bro, I'm not gonna argue with you...you didn't say ANYTHING about thye title shot, you just bitched about Vitali wanting to fight Lewis and I said "it happens, it's always happened" that's all.
As for the title shot, yeah Vitali should probably take a warm up and then get his shot BUT let's just keep in mind that this instance right here sets what we in the legal system like to call a PRECEDENT for future events of similar fashion.......so in the future should a champ retire and be given emeritus status then what's going to happen will be based off of this decision.
I'm for Sam Peter getting his title shot, but I know that he won't have it long IF he's then ordered to fight Vitali

He must be obsessed yeah
Were those comments since he's come back recently . If he has still got Lennox on his mind the guy has got some issues . He lost fair and square . Get over it . I thought Klitschko was an inteligent man so im surprised by this stupidity

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
Vitali needs to let the Lewis fight go...didnt he say he'd only be back if it was a fight against Lewis??!!
And yet here he is again! ;D

Yes. It's beyond bizarre and flirts with some sort of obsessive disorder. He'll have the opportunity to redeem his K.O. loss to Maskaev, at least that's the way it seems right now.

Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
If he said "I know I beat Lennox"
He's the only one on earth who does.....
did well...?
fought hard....?
had him in trouble....?
looked like he COULD ? win etc....... etc......ok....................
....beat.....??
Uh...........No.
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
point of clarification......the people who aren't fans of Vitali Klitschko are the people who bring this up more than anyone else.
If Vitali wants to fight a guy who has been retired since 2004 then that's his business...you are the jackasses paying attention to it....you have as much trouble "getting over it" as Vitali does
-
Re: Vitali Klitschko: "I Know I Beat Lennox Lewis"
I remember When i watched that fight it seemed as though Lewis was going to end it. I think though for Vitali he needed the fight to be stopped for his long term health and for Lewis he needed to retire also for his long term health. There's no wonder Vitali still talks about it though as there was a big build up to that fight b/c Vitali wanted it for ages so it's no wonder he still wants a remetch as he should have won that fight but didn't. There is also no-one around at the moment with the kind of profile and pulling power Lewis had.

Yes. Very true. Welcome aboard. C.C. Every since Lewis retired there has been a rift in the division that hasn't been filled. I can understand Klit wanting to avenge his loss to the REAL champ in light of the fact that in the publics eye nobody has been able to fill Lewis' shoes. That includes both Klit brothers.

Thanks for the welcome. Perhaps Vitali is trying to become the guy to fill Lewis' shoes. There isn't much else he could say that would have us all talking about what he said. So now we'll all be interested in what he'll be doing next???
