It's OK to be timeline and spatially illiterate as most boxing fans are. Go git'em Tigger!!!

Boy did you get it WRONG!!!

"Karl is getting a frightful beating".Max Schmeling ringside. If you floor a man 3 times,cut and close his eye, and he has to be rescued by the referee in the 12 rd.

And these are the score cards when he is rescued.

• The fight was scored by rounds. At the time of the stoppage, Referee Teddy Waltham had Ali ahead 7-2-2, and Judges Felix Ohlet and Nat Fleischer (editor of The Ring magazine) each had Ali leading 7-3-1. The Associated Press had Ali in front 9-1-1.

How much trouble has he caused you?

Only two southpaws were ranked whilst Lewis was an active fighter Moorer and Byrd.

Lewis beat the man who beat Moorer, Tua.

In1994 45 years old George Foreman ko'd Moorer in10rds.

In1997 Holyfield stopped Moorer, flooring him 5 times in a one sided rout.

In2002 Tua ko'd Moorer in1 round!

Why on earth would Lewis avoid Moorer?

It's about time you came up with all those slick boxers Lewis avoided. I've asked you 5 times for their names now.

Exactly. These guys he claims Lennox avoided were unranked. Lewis fought the best available, top ranked contenders when he was champ and avoided BS mandatories by the corrupt governing bodies at the time to fight the best too. That's the only reason Lewis was ever stripped. He still held the important titles that mattered until his retirement. At the time of his retirement, he still held the WBC and Ring belts and was still the lineal heavyweight champ, which is what truly matters in the end. If you don't believe me, look at some of those Bernard Hopkins title defenses he had to take to stay undisputed middle champ. After his final title defense against Howard Eastman, Larry Merchant even asks Hopkins "Aren't you embarrassed?" because of his crappy mandatory defense. Mandatories are supposed to make the champs fight the best, but they just force champions to fight whoever these corrupt governing bodies want them to fight to keep control over them. It's a power trip. So someone like Lennox that says screw that and instead ops to fight the best should be rewarded, not penalized. But I guess some people buy into the narrative.

- - Poppy ran from ol’man Eastman.

Lewiie has 2 one punch KO title losses and stripped of all but his last belt 2 days before getting stripped of that before he got in his ducking Vit retirement…only in boxing, folks…

Lewie avenged both defeats, yet Vitalie lost to Byrd and his brother was beaten up by Sanders which was not avenged... What gives? Lewie beat Vitalie, BTW so why was a rematch necessary? Oh and he also NEVER fought anyone after, like he retired? You a fuul.

Nice presentation. That right had eyes lol! Interesting story about Rahman. He was, as most know, an enforcer, a Liston like character who took care of thumbs, knees and occasional heads that needed to be adjusted. He was also shot a few times... In baltimore that is not so rare. But his dad was a physician. I knew a bit of a backdrop here having lived in baltimore.

- - Poor Billy don’t understand that HBO was offering the bank for Lewie/Vit rematch.

No $ for any Byrd rematch where Vit recovers from Surgery, so Wlad righted the wrong.

Sander was angling for $$$$$$$$$$ Roy fight and ended up stripped but made bank vs Vit in fantastic fight.

Its like you didn’t know what grade you in back then.

Ohhh so now its a financial reason. So Lewis "Ducked" because he could not do the math... um hum... So I am beginning to understand why you back certain fighters... Sorry it took me a bit, Im slowin down ya know... The Klits are just SO SMART... They didn't avenge some defeats because it obviously made no financial sense right? I mean Vitali needed the dough and all, the cabbage, so Vlad tole em "take care of sanders my lightwork that knocked my a s s out." And Lewis, Im still confused... is he a coward for ducking Vitali? or bad at math? since obviously he didn't just want to retire... I mean look at ALL the GUYS he fought after ducking Vitalie that second time! Oh wait...

Your rationalisations are both intruiging as paradoxes because they are NOT rational, and extremely entertaining! You go to such lengths and obviously do not have a clue how ridiculous your assertions are. I guess Sanders had a lot to do with Vitalie taking the place of his brother... BTW speaking of avoiding Southpaws, how does Vlad come out on that account? Did Sanders teach him a lesson?

Yeah Vlad righted the wrong because Vitalie had surgery, Vlad just let Vitalie take care of his lightwork with Sanders, but lewis ducked because he wanted to retire... You idiot
