The Doctor saving Vitali vs Lewis was best thing to happen for VK's "legacy".

[-CANE-]

There is no doubt in my mind that Vitali would have KO'd Lewis in the 7th, Lewis caught a lucky break and escaped a legacy ending nightmare. If Vitali's eye wasn't mutilated he probably would have KO'd Lewis in 4 or 5 rounds. Vitali proved that he had 100 times the heart that Lewis had and a way better chin. Not to mention, Lewis became so scared of Vitali that he ran away and retired like a little ***** even though he was offered 25 million for a rematch. LEWIS IS A COWARD

Klitchko would have been knocked out or stopped, if he was gonna stop Lewis in 4 or 5 then he would have done it, cut eye or not. Klitchko was the one who got a lucky break, by the fight being stopped. Yeah he put up a great fight against a sub par Lewis, but it was Lewis who was coming on strong and throwing the better punches. As the fight went on Klitchko was getting caught more and more, he was more tired than Lewis and he was the one holding while Lewis was throwing the better punches. When Klitchko did throw punches he was stumbling forward like an amatuer and then holding on for dear life. WATCH the fight objectively, not as a Klitchko NUTHUGGER. Lewis is not a coward, that's why he fought everyone there ever was to fight in his long career, never ducked anyone and beat everyone he ever faced. Your just a Lewis hater, who can only see that their own favourite fighter was the one doing anything worthwhile. Don't bother posting back until you have watched at least 10,000 fights and have a clue as to what your on about. To say Lewis had no heart, what a numpty you really are.

I saw both fighters fading in that fight. Both looked tired, I think its kind of biased for the topic creator to say Lennox didn't look tired. Both look tired!!!

[Kball15]

he has got that "one of the lads" appeal thats popular everywhere, and always is popular if the guy is at the top of the sport... which hatton happens to be

[duffgun]

both where tired but if it carried on lewis would imo have won, that cut would have ruined vitali's vision in the end and become a sitting, plus after the 3rd when he had that terrible cut he new the fight would be over soon yet didn’t come forward throwing hard punches to finish.

Maybe you need to read the thread again from the beginning. The thread starter was Threadstealer and he said that Lennox was really tired and was very lucky the fight got stopped or he would have been knocked out.

I don't know if you was referring to me when you said the topic creator was biased towards Lennox, if you did you have misunderstood what I meant. I don't deny Lennox was tired, they both were, but IMO Lennox was getting more and more on top as the fight went on. His punches had far more snap and were a lot harder and were doing more damage. Vitali fought his heart out, and started really well and had Lewis in a lot of trouble. But from the 3rd onwards Lewis started to get on top. Klitchko was the more tired of the 2, you could see that from the punches that were being thrown by both fighters. Although still trying to come forward and make a fight of it, Klitchkos punches were not having the same effect as in the first 2 rounds. He was looking amatuerish in the way he was throwing his punches and would throw one or two then grab hold of Lewis, he was constantly clinching through tiredness and the worry of the cut. Klitchko put up a brave performance against an old sub par Lewis, but had the fight gone on he would have been busted up even more or eventually knocked out, as good as his chin was he couldn't have kept taking those tremendous punches.
