Had Vitali not been his mandatory we do know Lewis keeps fighting so you can’t really bring a legit argument to defend that fact .

    Manny Steward has faulted Lewis not taking the rematch so that’s really end game with that ,he says there’s unfinished business 5 years after that fight ? Lewis was also 38 let’s not do the double standard thing here where we have to list all the older fighters or same age guys that reached there peaks in their late 30”s and where Lewis says he’s got longevity before the Vitali fight because he didn’t receive a lot of punishment .

    “Why retire at this point? I still got one or two years left“

    Thats what he said before Vitali replaced Johnson.

    Prime may have not been the best word to use, but Vitali was a lot younger. Boxing is a brutal/barbaric sport. You have to hang them up sometime.

              All the teenage Joshua fans gonna bring the hate in this thread!

              For me, Lewis is among the top ATG HWs so he gets A+, all his losses he redeemed in devastating fashion. Unlike a certain robotic bodybuilder who ran for his life, in his redemption match, against an obese Mexican who didn't even bother training lol
