Even if he wasnt cut I think Vitali would have been knocked out in the 7th round cuz he was staggering around all over the place in the 6th whilst Lewis was getting stronger , finding his range and getting on top.


Vitali was done after that uppercut.
I agree, but the fact the Lennox retired after left the perception that he was scared to rematch Vitali. True or not, it's how it was perceived and that's why Vitali gets all that credit. People wanted to annoint a new HW king so they glorified Vitali's loss help put him in that position.
