didn't look like that at all, and there's a good reason why Lewis retired right after and recently said it'd take 100 million to get him even interested in a rematch

klitoris was at the end of his stamina and Lewis the Lummox was just getting into it. 2nd Wind City, whereas the klits have no 2nd wind. Ever. Lennox would have knocked klitoris into Press Row by the 9th round at most with one of those monster uppercuts. Too bad they stopped it. Really too bad.

Even a 38 year old whipped a prime klitoris. What does that tell ya @El Kabong you whack job.

I gotta say one of my favorite things to read about here is Kabongs posts about Wlad. I don't like Wlad, but I like Kabong

If Wlad fought with half the intensity in which Kabong posts about him, nobody would ever believe he wasn't bursting with A side meth and he would've had Povetkin out of there in a round. Fact.

Look Lewis was 38 but was far from shot also he is like in the top ten greats heavy's on the top half of the list i would say. Why is it a shame to lose by a cut to that man of all people he is a atg and as far as the Brown Bomber goes turning in his grave i just laugh. Bomber during his prime years i remember him not being able to avoid a right hand by a old vet him self only he got a rematch. If he got in the ring with Lewis he would get squashed and i wonder if people would still call him great after. I don't get all hate from you Brock your idol beat bums and shot fighters his whole career and you idolize the man and Rock was great guy on all but lets be real here. Vatli getting knocked out the man has never even seen the canvas in how many fights now and you think he going to get kncoked out i mean come dude.

The real issue in this fight was that they sucked; there was zero in the way of boxing skill. Yeah, I know short notice...That doesn't matter if you know how to fight and are a professional. What does it take to prepare for an opponent? THE FIRST ROUND, for a true pro; these guys were and are glorified amateurs.
To be so tired after a couple rounds, like Lewis? A PRO can get in and do 10 because he is a boxing professional. Vitali was eating those flush uppercuts again and again- a 'pro' would turn his shoulder and quit leaning in- and a few more would have finished him.
The night of the fight, I turned to my friend (he had sparred with Emile Griffith and spent considerable time around Liston) and said "Joe Louis is turning in his grave." It was a shameful night; like Arcel said, get two guys that cannot box and it'll be one hell of a fight.

Lewis should be applauded for making the right decision and retiring at the right time. He was finished at the top level and had achieved everything he wanted ti in his career. If Vitali could not beat an out of shape Lennox then a fit and motivated one would have smashed him.

Agreed, peak for peak I cannot see Vitali topping Lewis. Lewis had the gears.

IF

Vitali didn't fight a PRIME Lewis, Lewis didn't fight a Vitali prepared for Lewis and vice versa.

Questions would have been answered IF there was a rematch...but there wasn't so just enjoy what happened and leave it at that

now he's a bloody priest

Lennox may not have sparked him clean out, but definitely it was looking like what it would have happened- a STOPPAGE, either by Vitali's corner due to those cuts OR Vitali wouldn't have answered the bell in the later rounds. Basically, quit on his stool.

Based on what? The Byrd fight? Vitali took soo much shit for that but when he tears his shoulder ligaments again vs Chisora and finishes out the fight what does he get? Does he get a pat on the back and an "atta boy" for gutting out a win? Nope people probably don't even know he fought with 1 arm that fight.

now he's a bloody priest

What in the blue blazes are you talking about?

This was a great fight yet it still seemingly pissed off half the people by being non technical and what not, we are a fickle bunch.

Klitschkos AND Lyle suck.
