It looks that way, but I can't remember Vitali ever doing anything like that before or since. Pretty surprising if it was an intentional kick.

No announcement yet.
You be the judge: Did Vitali Klitschko try to kick Lennox Lewis?

You would really have DQ'd Vitali for that? I was at the Staples Center that night and there would have been a riot. It was a meaningless reaction that didn't cause one bit of damage. Lewis was so upset about it that he helped Vitali back to his feet.Last edited by Scott9945; 08-11-2011, 03:44 PM.

And yes, if that kick lands, I'd have no choice but to DQ for something like that.

Yes he did, and Lennox was very classy in offering him a hand to get up.
Vitali is a hothead, what would you expect?

It probably was. Vitali Klitschko used to be a total ******* especially that night. They should have put him in a straight jacket after the fight was stopped, what a lack of class he showed.
Luckily he is now one of the finest human beings in the sport.
