upppppppppppppppppppp

[imp]

The best boxer/fighter won the fight.

Vitali did retire Lennox though and he was not keen on the rematch.

Prime Vitali would destroy every heavyweight today.

[Manos de Piedra]

Prime for prime I pick Lewis.

This was an old Lewis and Vitali with a few weeks notice so both guys at their best would be a real collision of the giants.

[Beanflicker]

Gotta go Lewis prime for prime.

Thanks to those skills he learned up here in Canada.

Prime Vitali would beat up his brother and there is no way little Wlad would take the attack.

Lennox was too mobile/skilled for one dimensional Vitali. Additionally, Vitali wasn't durable enough to last or wear Lennox out. Lewis was a great super heavyweight and ATG champ. Vitali was an excellent fight with solid fundamentals who knew how to fight tall effectively.

Your basing that comment on what ? he lost twice , once with a shoulder injury and once on cuts to Lewis.
A prime Lewis was given a close ride by the durable but much smaller Ray Mercer , no reason to think Vitali couldn't have gone 12 tough rounds.

Basing the comment on Lewis being able to punch holes in his face, the shoulder injury, the back injury...etc. at a minimum Vitalis skin doesn't hold up to Lewis' punches for twelve rounds. I'm fairly confident making that prediction based on historical data...

Not durable enough? Just....wow hahaha

Separately, Lennox was better but Vitali had him if not for the cut. Lennox could barely stand to celebrate. And he did not retire right away, he could have rematched. He stayed looking for other fights that did not materialize. He didn't want to fight Vitali again. That's his choice but if he had retired right away nobody could question his choice not to rematch, since he stayed looking for fights the choice not to rematch should be questioned.

it was a pity that fight ended on cuts wasnt it

i think lewis would have beaten vitali both at their best

Definitely. Lewis was soooooo lucky that his fists found Vitalis face so often and opened up all of those holes. If only Lennox hadn't punched him in the face so much, he would've lost. Then to retire like he did after stopping Vitali, definitely suspect. He was lucky to land all of those punches and then he wants to retire after that stoppage win?!?!?!?

Vitali had him if not for the cut?

It's like saying Vitali would have had him if Lewis wasn't allowed to punch back but in that fight Vitali could not absorb Lewis' punches without suffering fight ending injuries. He couldn't survive and that's the end if it. If he had better skin he wouldn't
get cut and equally if Khan had a better chin he wouldn't keep he getting knocked out & if Lomachenko was 6 stone heavier he'd be a heavyweight etc etc.

Lennox is best by the proverbial mile....
Lennox took on Vitali, his #1 contender on a week or so's notice putting his title on the line when barely 80% ready Lennox was prepared for a warm up against Kirk Johnson who they knew had not been training properly. Vitali was fighting fo0r a title shot & was 100 %ready. Result.... LEWIS TKO 6
Lennox beat Vitali when overweight & undertrained what was the incentive to rematch??
Lennox might have stayed had Wlad shown any interest I fighting but Wlad was nowhere to be found ROFLMAO
Lennox retired at exactly the right time The only man who could have given him any competition, Ike Ibeabuchi was other wise engaged thanks to a lying hooker.
Lennox beat every man he ever faced in the pro ring he has nothing left to prove
