Vitali's claim to fame is losing to Lennox Lewis in a bout he was leading but was getting hammered when it was stopped. Lewis' claim to fame is being one of the greatest heavyweights of all-time and a great champion in a deep era of heavyweights. This **** needs to end.
    End of thread. Good k for you, sir.

        That's because Lewis was better than Sanders or Williams.

        Styles Make Fights.

        It's why Hopkins looked better against Pavlik than he did against Calzaghe.

          Why's everyone trying to discredit Vitali on that fight? I mean, I'm not denying that a prime Lewis would destroy a prime Vitali, but damn, what' with the hate?

            Vitali in his prime would probably KO david haye in the first round

              Not likely, lewis couldn't even knockout a past his prime holyfield twice, this discussion will never end, because almost every vitali fan thinks if the fight went one more round then lewis would have been knocked out, if the fortunes were switched and lewis had that horrible cut on his face, the vitali fans would have said it was a great stoppage.

                Either that or those other guys weren't as good as Lewis was... Hmmm which one is it? Maybe a bit of both?

                  No hate for him i think... I have no hate for him certainly... Don't like his brother but i think Vitali is a very good fighter and good character. He has a degree has he not?

                    It took Vitali 8 rounds to shift Danny Williams for Christ sake.

                    Audley Harrison slapped him silly in 3 rounds.

                      Hell, if Lewis really was "past his prime" and "unmotivated" when he stopped Vitali, that just goes to prove what a great great fighter he was.
