    Lewis just fought Holyfield twice,Rahman twice,& Tyson & had no reason to continue boxing & then he beat vitali in SIX.fights are 12 rounds not six.so what he was ahead did you see vitalia eye? He wouldn't have lasted another 6 rounds.you klit fans are funny how you give a guy credit for LOSING! Coming into the lewis fight who had vitali beaten in his 5 fights before their fight? That's right NOBODY! I so tired of you klitschko fans running down all the real greats like Holyfield,lewis,Tyson,etc.vitali could have fought all of them when vitali was in his prime but he was too busy quitting vs Byrd & taking on bums.let's see lewis' 10fights prior to their fight: Briggs,marovic,holyfield twice,grant,Botha,tua,Rahman twice,Tyson & vitali: donald,bean,purrity,norris,Hoffman,Byrd(who he QUIT against),Sullivan,mahone,hide,youla.putting vitali in the same breath is ridiculous & anyone who says lewis was scared is an idiot & has no idea.he beat him half retired & out of shape & a rematch wasn't even needed.vitali couldn't get it done.lewis beat EVERYONE of his generation.he fought the big boys & vitali had his chance vs Byrd & lewis but choked.it's time you bandwagon jumping klitschko fans face the facts & get over the lewis thing because if that is the only thing you can hold on to defend vitalis legacy you don't have much.I think vitali is good but not great.he just didn't fight any real tough heavyweights in his prime when there were many.if he doesn't surrender like the Russians in world war 1 he may have been in some more meaningful fights.Byrd couldn't hurt a fly but vitali still quit.no one remembers 35 knockouts except klitschko fans but all boxing fans & longtime anaylsts & experts always remember a quitter.every boxer has a few defining fights or moments.lennox lewis' moments (1)beating Tyson & Holyfield(the 2 best of his time)(2)unifying the title when the best of his generation were still active.vitalis biggest moments in his 2 most notable opponents(1)quitting vs Byrd(2)losing to lewis in 6rounds.hardly even in the same universe.vitali will never be in the fall of fame & couldn't carry lewis' jockstrap.you should watch lewis career & then vitalis.I have all of their fights from beginning to end & you should be embarrassed for stating you list respect for lewis.I've never had respect for vitali because he took the easy European route to get where he is today.the bigboys fight in the states & that comes right from emanuel stewards mouth.he will never have a legacy even remotely close to Holyfield,Tyson,lewis,etc.his resume sucks & will never be great fighting todays heavies.

    Yea alot of morons on here think a fight stops at 6 rounds, So what if Vitali was 4-2 ahead on the scorecards?? Zab judah was ahead on the scorecard after 6 rounds with Mayweather....Herol graham was winning a shutout against Julian jackson for almost 11 1/2 rounds before he got Ko'ed.

        Do you ignore the fact that was the heaviest Lewis, so that he was out of shape and way past it but still stopped Vitali

          I think Vitali now will have some problems with Haye based on his performance against Gomez. Dude looked his age, the Vitali that fought Hoffmann would handle Haye steadily. Wlad gonna lose this fight and knows it too cuz of all rematch clauses the wuss. More stuff to show that Klits ruinin the division. Plus Vitali don't make it to the Haye fight, dude's due for an injury bout now.

            A little advise from Lewis never hurts, seeing as how he has a massive amount of experience in the heavy weights, and has fought his brother.

              Lewis Sparringspartner from Haye! Laughable!

              Lewis is a Champion and he will never be Hayes Sparringspartner.

              Lewis will not help Haye thatīs for sure. Lewis knows that Haye has not Chance against Wlad.

                Nothing wrong in taking advice from Lewis.
