Lennox Lewis Chooses Vitali To Win

Rick Reeno

Lennox Lewis has changed his mind on who he thinks will win the coming Saturday's heavyweight showdown between Vitali Klitschko and Danny Williams.

Originally, Lewis picked Danny Williams to defeat Vitali Klitschko and told the UK press that Williams had the tools to snatch the WBC heavyweight title. [details]

LOL how many stiches did Klitchko need again? 50 odd was it? All from jabs too. Yeah Lewis was tired and was losing up until then but Klitchko collapsed into his stool for one and and secondly, I don't recall many championship fights going to scorecards after 6 rounds.

Lennox doesn't give Williams a punchers chance when it comes to KOing Vitali. I guess he feels it is impossible, especially since he couldn't do it..

I think you confusing Klitschko collasping into his stool with Lewis. You also seem to forgetting the fact that Lewis was stumbling all of the way back to his dressing room after the fight.

A fighter could have made a "punching bag" out of his opponent for 11 rounds but gets KAYOED in the 12th round . . . that fighter still loses . . . . THAT'S BOXING

Lewis was hit by so many hard punches but it needed him only one solid punch to win the fight by stoppage

I don't think Lewis was just lucky in that fight . . . he made a plan and executed it.

It is kind of hard to believe that Vitali's injury would have gotten better as the fight progressed. Imagine Lewis continuing to hit that area...

something controversial before, during or after the fight normally occurs, which gives boxing bad publicity. I just hope its very entertaining for fans and restores some credibility back to heavyweight division.

It's impossible to believe more like. Have you known cuts to heal themselves during 12 rounds after taking more punches?
