i wish him all the best though
Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis
THE TRUTH
Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.
Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis barely survived the 2nd round, he was badly hurt, holding on for dear life, wobbling everywhere and staggering around the ring like a drunk. Lewis was badly hurt several times in the fight and was getting outboxed, outworked, outmuscled and outlanded by Vitali.
punches landed
Vitali 156
Lewis 102
Lewis was exhausted, worn down and hurt from the accumulation of punches and was ready to get KTFO again, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was clearly the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission and would've KO'd Lewis for sure if the fight had continued.
After the fight, Vitali intimidated the shit out of Lewis and made him look like a bitch.
All the fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and booed Lewis after the fight.
Lewis promised Vitali a rematch.
Vitali destroyed Kirk Johnson in 2 rounds and called out Lewis again in the post fight interview. The scared Lewis retired shortly after that fight.
Lewis turned down 30 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.
Vitali dominated Lewis and scared his bitch ass into retirement.

George Foreman: "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"
Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"
Even Emanuel Steward was upset and pissed off at Lewis for blatantly ducking a Vitali rematch.
Lewis is scared to death of Vitali.
maybe compare the number of stiches in vitalskas and lennox face... and that coming from a klitschko fan
you can die in the ring but also you can kill in it. hitting someone (twice) who is totally unprepared for it is stupidly dangerous. only an idiot would do that.
thats a double edged blade. if you dont take him out on an opening - you risk being hurt and taken out later. that could end your carrer and if you family depends on you winning would be a factor which pushed to to actions like that.
just my 2 cents
it depends, does the guy know something or is just beginning.
for me footwork comes first before everything, the feet will never catch up if you miss teaching footwork in th beginning
true.but footwork comes into positioning imo.but in training we always make them do footwork drills around the ring to get used to movement..but you must remain in position to evade punches and land your own
good point i guess position and footwork depend on each other and cant be really seperated
All the talk this week has been really educational for me. I had heard Floyd coyly insinuating that Pacquiao is on "power pellets", but I did not know that people were ACTUALLY doing that. I thought he was exaggerating or just using "Floyd-speak".

I have seen commercials for the testosterone underarm gel that you apply like deodorant. Barry Bonds and Jason Giambi rubbed on "the cream". I knew guys were taking orals , and injections.
During all the BALCO stuff, all of the baseball steroids era, etc, I had not heard of anyone doing pellets.
There are tons of doping methods.
the problem is not that they are caught, but that test are not valid for the newest editions of PED.
nearly all ppl in the olympiad are doping AND inside people know it
for example the last olympics you could even test for it, BUT the anti doping agenda hadnt had that special kind of PED on the red list. so you are free to dope and nothing will ever happens.
after teh next redlist you "upgrade" to another PED.
i think it basicly comes down to your preference.
if you enjoy grappling / wrestling / judo then mma is a good sport, if you cant stand it keep it as far away as possible.
imo mma is great because it is about the best fighter who knows it all and can combine it the best way.
its natural that the skill level of the single aspects ( boxing, muaythai, wrestling, bjj ....) will never reach the heights of people who train for the single art.
for all those keyboard warriors, you should head to an mma gym and get some sparring rounds in before you call mma fighter ******s.
Blood, brutal KOs and guys punching other guys almost till death ... I mean 4 Oz gloves, of course they're going to get brutal KO punches!
punching each other almost till death...bwahahha you are obviously have no idea about mma
i dont think the tests will show up any substance that is currently on the forbidden list.
i think there is a strong possibility that team pacman are taling something which isnt on the list but could show IF you make specific tests.
even olympic testing has teh same prob - mr. bolt is an obviously the living prime example
i am not making any judgement if pac tool something, because on the top there is nearly no way around it.
it sure is a great jab and can do some damage,
i disagree that sturms jab is that good, he hits pretty quick and the power is ok. but he still pulls his right hand back, just like he did in his amateur days. when he gets again a guy with a good left hook he could go to sleep again
bad fight from zbik....
sturm is a big draw in germany, but there are enough rumors that he is broke and loosing money with the "sat1" cabel prosuctions...for sure he is no europe goldenboy nomore...
eitherway it was the first fight he cleary won, since some time
big disappointment, bull**** its not even a unification
but the people who say he didnt want to fight abraham should get the heads out of their asses and get their facts straight
LOL
on Charrs Facebook page:
I want ya'll to know that I'd never put up pictures like that nor do I have a Twitter account. All I am about is boxing with respect. posting pictures like that ain't my niveau especially when it's about this fight which was supposed to be a symbol for peace of syria. @davidhaye
but it makes sense, i doubt he is bright enough to make a funny joke like "Not my toe" hahaha
makes no sense from a boxing point of view ?!
**** that bon, it just doenst make more sense for the promoters than for the fans.
arum should learn from this and stop pampering his fighters. thats why boxing is going down as a sport !
I've was a a couple of fights and seen hum in the gym.
he isnt on world level, thats for sure. i guess vit took him because its a lowrisk fight that can be promoted in germany. they will act like charr has a chance to be the next german hw champ after schmeling, eventhough he isn't on world lvl.
it seems char achieved something by crushing the wlad presser some time.
but no suprise charr doent want any of this he was a real ass and seemed like the dumbest wannebe gangster there is
