People might think that this is irrealovent but it's not! Lewis tried to sue Mike Tyson into rematching him saying that Tyson was costing him millions of dollars by not taking the fight! He was gaurenteed some 20 plus million to rematch Vitali! He beat the fuck out of Tyson easily and wanted to take the easy rematch to make another huge payday for little effort! He did not want to earn his payday with a tuff fight with Vitali even though he would have made probably close to the same! To me this makes him a coward! Every time he was interviewed after he beat Tyson he said he would only fight for outrageous sums of money and Tyson was gonna take a few fights and then maybe rematch Lewis. So Lewis thought he would take an easy fight with Johnson to kind of stay sharp but ended up fighting Vitali, and Tyson wouldn't committ so Lewis bailed! Most of this is from articles I have read in the past on this sight and others, and I know some of you remember hearing this. He had a contract with tyson from the first fight that gave the loser the option of a rematch, tyson sent a letter requesting his contractual right for the rematch, lewis waited and later renegotiated the contract at tysons behest allowing both fighters another fight first, lewis was to face johnson and tyson was to face maskaev i think, tyson then pulled out costing lewis money and subsequently they replaced the "injured" johnson with vitali, so he sued tyson for breach of contract the contract that tyson asked for!
Did Lewis give anyone who'd lost to him a rematch? I can't recall. I mean, he never gave Mercer another shot, and Ray gave him hell and definitely deserved a rematch. Although he should've gotten the nod in the first Holy fight, why didn't he give Holy a rematch being that their second fight was so close? Vitali definitely deserved a rematch, too, but I think he scared Lewis too much in their fight. The only one I recall Lewis granting a rematch was Tyson, someone he'd handled easily. Courage, thy name is not Lewis!
After beating Mercer, Lewis had the option to face him again, or rematch McCall, who he lost to earlier. No brainer there.
Agaisnt Holyfield, Lewis beat him clearly in the 1st fight, and while the rematch was closer it was still a clear win. As far as most sane spectators were concerned, Lewis beat Holyfield twice.
It's pretty funny what lenghts some of you will go to in bending logic trying to make yourselves feel better.

I would much rather have Jessica Biel as opposed to Jessica Alba. Alba has a pretty face, but I would rather take that thick material Alba has to offer.
I'm with you on that one.
I voted Biel all the way.
Remember Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
damn, cant argue with the cards.
hmmmmm but i do remember the comentator saying vk won 1.2.4 and 6th.
ill have to find the tape.not saying that your wrong, just gonna check what he said.
Of course you're not saying I'm wrong anymore, because you were made to look like an ass.
Not only are you an idiot for not having any clue about that round on your own, you tried to spin it and make things up to support your laughable notion.
All 3 judges, Lederman and the Assoc Press scored round 6 for Lewis.
You were outright wrong.
And that wouldn't have been so bad if it wasn't for all the "Were you smoking pubic hair?" comments you made.
You made yourself look like a clown.

has anybody here, besides me, evr fought with cuts? they really don't mean that much and really don't hurt until a day or so after the fight.
having said that, vk had a nasty cut above his eye. some could even argue that it could've been career altering, and they wouldn't necessarily be wrong. one thing i hate about that fight is the way vitali's cutman worked with the cut. absolutely horribly. he looked like a goddamn amatuer. you NEVER wipe at a cut, especially with something rugged like a towel. proper procedure would point out that you should use a soft cotton pad and apply direct constant pressure to the cut.
vitali's cutman made the cut worse.
How do you like them apples?
BITCH.
See what happens when you drop everything you're trying to debate and paint yourself into a corner with a tiny aside of a point that you're WRONG about?

First of all, Klit wasn't even winning the fight. Yes, he was on the scorecards but he was taking WAY to much punishment, it looks all fine and dandy on the scorecards but when you get down to it, one of them was going to get knocked out, and Klit was getting his face smashed in.
i dont think taking 50 power shots is alot do u?
something interesting is that only one judge saw ll winning the last 2 rounds. this doesn't indicate that ll was starting to dominate in the judges eyes at least. to mine, klitschko just took a round off.
bozo, thanks for posting the score cards. intersting to look at.
It was to put Miss Leff in her place.
You are correct about the scoring being fairly meaningless in the long run.
In a fight where one fighter is TKO'd, the scores are not relevent.
