HE didnt want the rematch because he knew what was in store....I honestly think without the cuts lewis would have lost...
We will never know but it was turning into one good damn fight...you rarely saw Lewis ina fight he was mostly in boxing matches that one had some goo dback and forth action......It was my favorite Lewis fight I saw....Both times he fought holy he jabbed him to death....lefty
You need a big name to make you a big name you need a big fight or war to make you a bigger name....Holy vs Bowe / Holy vs Tyson I / Holy vs Foreman / Holy vs Ruiz he had some wars on his resume....lewis is the only Heavy Wieght Champ to beat everyone he stepped in the ring with besides Marciano. Lewis avenged both of his losses to McCall and The Rock.....he KO'd them both in their rematches.....the only door he left open in my book was the Vitali fight I would have liked to that fight rematched....Lefty

You gotta beat the champ to be the champ that is why I stated I would have liked to see the rematch between he and Lewis....Lefty
Don't get the Vitali nuthuggers on that subject! LOL!
But yeah, A rematch would have been good. I have no problem with Lewis retiring as, to me, it was appernt that he wasn't as motivated anymore.
While he was around he was under rated by many though,
On Topic: Vitali Klitschko was a very good heavyweight champ who don't get much respect. Injuries ruined him though.

yeah i agree with u
Lewis lacked personality aswell did 'nt he
i dont hold it against him for not fighting Vitali again i think he got out at the right time allthough that is one blot on his record that could of or should of been addressed
Bert Sugar does not have him in his 20 best HW of all time yet he has Holy ahead of him
i know that is just his opinion but i think that among most media pundits he is underrated

most people here regard Lewis as top 5 of all time, i dont think he is under rated,

My vote for underated and under appreciated is Lennox Lewis....Lefty
u are probably right i think he is the 3rd best HW ever definetly belongs in the top 5 anyway
he was not very exciting a lot of the time so that is probably why he is undervalued
