[Left Hook Tua]

Past his prime is arguable, he was the undisputed champ and just came off one of his most dominant wins.

Out of shape, because Vitali made him look that way. If it was Kirk Johnson in there Lewis would've looked like the star that he is.

He luckily got the win by accidentally cutting Vitali with the side of his glove, but he was losing on all the judges scorecards.

Lucky fight and lucky win for Lennox, was a smart man by retiring, he would've surely lost in the rematch to a now much more confident and younger Klitschko.

bs

the guy was 38.

the guy also came in the heaviest he's ever been.

lucky win or not......prime , young , in shape vitali couldn't beat a past prime , old , out of shape lewis.

fact.

[{}MATADOR{}]

There was something like this for the 80's and 90's awhile back, but it trailed off from 2000 on. now that were almost done this decade, can anyone recommend 10 fights from each year of the decade for me or anyone else to watch? Taking things like name value, fight quality, historical importance, and fight hype into account. I mean I dont mind watching a poor picture quality fight between two guys Ive never heard of if its overwhelmingly exciting, but i keep them to a minimum. Lets see who can compile the best list. or you can just list individual fights. I bet there are some people on here who can do it by memory somehow lol
