    Even the loser of the fight, yes, he lost the fight Klit-Lickers, no amount of whining and meaningless statistics or the judges official scorecards of him ahead by a whopping margin of 4-2 (WOW, so far ahead ) can change that,......the loser of the fight said Lewis was heavy and not in good condition.

    But the Gay Rasta Impasta still won.

    Oleg's ***** Hasim Rahman could beat an undertrained Lewis, but your beloved Brittley couldn't.

    Oh well, there's always the Kirk Johnson and Golf Sanders wins to enjoy.
    agreed........................

      imo he was sort of shot because he was past his prime. he was coming to the end of his career. a fighter can be shot and still win ppl

          Past prime? Of course. Shot? No.

          Good stoppage? Absolutely. Lennox's fists were like the Ark in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

              Lewis weighed in at 256.5 lbs a record for him. Vitali was in his prime and still lost to Lewis.

                Depends how you definie "shot".If you mean past his best then he was shot when he fought Tyson.

                He came in Lazy Lennox mode. Out of shape and unmotivated, he just wanted to land the right hand and get Vitali outta there. He also was supposed to be fighting someone else - Kirk Johnson I believe.

                A rematch would've been fun to watch but Vitali probably missed his best chance to win. Lennox always came back stronger in rematches.

                  Agreed. He wasnt "shot" but he certainly was not his best. He was a little out of shape and most importantly, mentally wasnt in it. He wasnt motivated but instinct kicked in when Vitali rocked him in the second round though. There's a big difference between not being your best and being shot. I cant believe Vitali couldnt pull of the win. He had him.

                    convienent how you leave out that Vitali took the fight on a few days notice,

                    neither fighter was fully prepared, not just Lewis like you like to point out,

                    you like to twist things Flawless and leave out other important details

                      Vitali was already preparing for another fight. Lewis was 37 years old and Vitali was young and in his prime, it would be like Vitali right now 37 years old fighting RUSLAN CHAGAEV.
