Who makes boxing look bad, Vitaly or Mike ?

As Jim Lampley said it after Vitali beat Johnson. Did Lewis see dollar signs or a stop sign? Apparently he saw a stop sign.

Friends, I have a strong feeling that Lewis will be out there again in the very near future and that Klitscho rematch will be a reality.

I wish he would, but seriously doubt it...he may be the only one that I believe when he say's he's out for good. He's getting married, etc.. and his mom has been after him for years to quit. But, we can hope.

Putting any validity in anything that Lampley say's isnt the best idea; unless of course it's just what you want to hear and believe.

So why did Lewis wait so long retire?

Youre asking me? I'd never think of putting word's in someone else's mouth, especially someone I've never met and dont know personally. If I had to guess, perhaps considering the seriousness of the decision, maybe he wanted to really, really THINK about it first? No one know's but Lewis..but I honestly dont think it's because he afraid of Vitali...the thought of Lewis being afraid of anyone makes me laugh

So he's not afraid of losing to Vitali, yet he waits to see if he loses to Johnson. Lewis didn't want to retire, he wanted some easy big money fights with RJJ and/or Tyson, but Vitali was in the way. Lewis is either afraid of tarnishing his record by beating every opponent he ever fought or he is just lazy.

Waited til he beat Johnson? Thats your preception of it, that doesnt make it true. Unless you take up residence inside his head, you (or anybody else)dont know exactly why he waited til the exact moment he did. It's funny how you claim to know what he wanted, "big money fight's", etc..you are not him. Unless youre a mind reader, you dont know for sure. You think what you want to think; that isnt the same as knowing it. Claiming he was afraid of Vitali doesnt make Vitali a better fighter except in your eyes

Calling Manny the day of Klitschko v. Johnson to talk about the fight while you are at a best friends wedding shows an unnatural interest about the fight.

Are you accusing the BBC of lying?

Are you cliaming that they wouldnt lie? Please!! An unnatural interest in the fight? NO...a natural boxer's interest in boxing. But, Klitschko fan's do this you see, they will use any little thing they can think of as proof that Lennox is afraid or whatever. Honesly, his fan's is the number one reason I dont like him; that and his constant whining.

Ugly cut's are never caused by clean punches??? Somebody forgot to tell Gatti that in several of his fight's.

I would prefer to have LL KO or outbox Vitaly or have it the other way around. This "working the cut" aspect of LL's win, or any other win for that matter, seems aesthetic.

A rematch would be great. LL is a great boxer and Vitaly fought him well.
