That goes both ways, Lennox is the only opponent Vit has faced that could land regularly and with power on him. It was Vit who would have been going into unknown territory in the later rounds against an opponent almost as tall who could land at will. LL's only losses came by single punch KO's, all the fights which were close and went into the later rounds he had the grit to pull it out of the bag.
