    I think the Lewis fans have left it alone but are constantly provoked by Vitali fans who cant accept their man got beat fair and square .

    The word great gets thrown about a bit too much IMO, it was nowhere near a great fight. It was one of the best Heavyweights in the last 8 years or so, but thats because the division has sucked, not because Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis was a great fight.

    Im not picking you up on it mate i just keep hearing people calling this a great fight, but it was without much skill. And the action itself wasn't consistent, its nowhere near as good as fights like Bert Cooper vs Michael Moorer, Evander Holyfield vs Riddick Bowe 1 etc.

    Whether someone finds a fight great or not is a personal thing.. you don't need majority recognition

    Yea i know like i said i wern't picking him up on it everyone has the own opinions and tastes, but i just think because people haven't seen a great Heavyweight fight in a long time. They look for anything in the Heavyweight division to build there excitement up. And because 95 percent of the Heavyweight fights are boring now, when you actually see one with action in it, its shocking and exciting because you haven't seen action in a Heavyweight fight in along time. Hence why i think the fight gets overrated and people forget about really true great Heavyweight fights, i don't think it compares to Bowe vs Holyfield 1, Norton vs Holmes etc.

    No - that's not the reason.. people remember the experience.

    You're too young to remember fights like Bowe-Holyfield let alone Norton-Holmes.. you already were informed they were GREAT before you watched them, imagine how GREAT they would have been had you lived at the time to experience them
