This is how the oldest, fattest, most inactive version of Lennox brutalized the dominant champ of the next era. No long boring paragraphs here, just facts and illustration.
Aggressive Precision:Down by 2 rounds, Lennox opens up the 3rd with a rally, and Vitali is forced to hold. Lennox makes him pay by exploding the eye like a filthy ketchup packet.

**** yeah Lewis HIMSELF said this! Is the OP Lennox Lewis? I think not!
Lewis said he was like a wine. lewis himself held the belt ransom for the best part of a year. lewis himself refused the remath. Vitali took the fight @ 10 days notice. Vitali was winning.
Why are you so caught up in what Lennox said? Look what he actually did in the RING. Look what he did to a man who had a 6 year youth advantage on him.

He beat the dominant champ of the next era! No one has done this in the history of the sport. Imagine an old Ali doing that to Larry Holmes, or Holmes doing that to Prime Tyson. .Old Boxers are always saying they still got it, Old boxers say a lot of things.... but Lennox is the only 37+ to end his career with victory over a PRIME, A-class opponent.
No need for him to rematch. Lennox had already beaten everyone he ever faced and wasnt getting any younger. Only broke bums and boxers who FAILED in their prime fight past 38.
I was a Calzaghe fan until I learned Calzaghe is gay for frauds like Haye. :crazy:
A fraud who jumps up to heavyweight to fight the weakest heavyweights to only talk about fighting the best but really avoiding the best.
Wait...
You used to like Calzaghe but now you don't because he likes Haye? Wow, your someone I'd really like in a fanbase.
Lewis wasn't "over the hill" when he got his ass whooped by Vitali.
Lewis was coming off the KO win over Tyson. In the Lewis/Tyson post fight interview Lewis stated "I'm like fine wine, I get better with age"
In an interview right before the Vitali fight, Lewis said "I'm at the peak of my powers, I will keep fighting for a few more years"
Vitali dominated Lewis and scared him into retirement. That's a FACT.
That's an opinion, what is a FACT is that the records will show Lewis TKO 6 Vitali.
You don't like Calzaghe because of Haye? WTF? :rofl:
He used to be on this forum before literally hugging Calzaghes nuts. Not just a fan but actually sucking his scrotum. Crying like a biatch every time someone criticised Calzaghe....now this :rofl:

Dirk Diggler seems like a biased UK poster. It's hard to root for a great UK fighter when none exist currently... Ashame Lennox Lewis retired! I pity you!
You seem mentally retarded.

How old are you? You are truly laughable
Look ****** this is how you get your stoppages. You british bum piece of **** who avoided the best just like David haye does. Slapping your boxers until the ref is paid off by frank warren to stop the fight.

You used to nuthug Calzaghe you fukkin clown :rofl:
Lennox fought extremely dirty, kept holding and hitting, thats when he opened the cut on Vitali. He kept jumping Vitali right at the start of the round with his head in front, and kept hitting him during break commands, he fought really dirty because he felt really quickly how powerful and good Vitali was, so he used all his exerience and the dirty tricks in his pocket, he knows himself that he got really lucky that night when he opened u that cut with a very dirty punch while holding Vitali.
It was a shame that this fight hat to end this way and really lucky for Lennox.
I would say he was up by at least seven or eight rounds, personally. I also think Lewis should have been disqualified for using the leather of the front of his glove and the muscles in his right arm to open cuts on Vitali's face.
:rofl::rofl:
Vitali dominated the opening 2 rounds. No more, no less. After that neither fighter really held the advantage, they were both breathing out of their ar5eholes from round 3 onwards so to say Vitali dominated the whole fight is ridiculous.
The damage done by Lewis required 60 stitches and plastic surgery to repair. Name any other fight where a guy "dominated" his opponent and ended up looking like he'd fell face first into a combine harvester.
One more thing....you do know that being ahead on the scorecards only matters if the fight actually goes to the scorecards, don't ya?
NOT
EVEN
AWW
jks

No biad, no opinions; those are the facts. Speculate all you like but big V was winning and was stopped on cuts - he was not 'beaten' a soft tissue tear prevented him from finishing a fight he was winning.......
Vitali was up 5-1 or 6-0 in rounds in reality at the end. The referee should have disqualified Lewis for using the laces of his gloves to open cuts on Vitali's face in the clinch.
Do you watch this fight drunk or something? There were no cuts on Vitali's face in the first 2 rounds. Blood was not drawn untill this particular right hand:

The pressure from that punch caused a small explosion above Vitali's eye. You see blood immediately after. Clear as day.

Sadly thats exactly how these fangirls think. There are a half dozen press photos of Lennox pounding Vitali clean in the face, yet they contend it was laces and headbutts! Seen the fight 30 times and cant find clear evidence of either.
This topic is brought up like every six months. For the love of God, let it go. You are what your record says you are. Vitali gave a great fight against Lennox and who knows what would have happened. It appeared to me that Lewis was fatigued but also crafty. While Vitali was consistently throwing, oft-times scoring and oft-times not, Lewis was landing well-placed shots that did damage. Vitali takes a great shot but his face was being rearranged. My friends, his eyelid was about to fall off. Can you imagine what one more Lewis right in the seventh might've done to him? My God. That was as just a TKO6 as they come.

If it was 1 cut you could argue Lewis was lucky, but it was 6 cuts that required 60 stitches. That isn't luck, that's from taking clean hard punches to the face.
Vitali dominated, annihilated, and then retired Lennox the Coward Lewis.
It's a shame Britain makes nothing but scared coward fighters with no balls. Haye and Lewis have a lot in common. They both run for their lives from Klitschkos.
wtf is wrong with you, were you dropped on your head?
Lewis ripped vitalis face open, caused all those cuts and forced the stopage via doctor
Lewis beat the crap out of him
