If Vitali Vs Lewis happened agian right after there first fight

[TyrantT316]

Lewis lost his desire for fighting after Tyson...he said so himself before the Tyson fight that he was only going on to try to get a fight with Tyson. Once he got Tyson he said he completed everything he needed to complete in Boxing and didn't feel the desire anymore. I think he just wanted a quick Canada vs Canada payday vs Johnson then retire...but people were clamouring for Vitali

Are you sure about that one??? Lewis tried to sue Tyson when Tyson wouldn't rematch him! Didn't sound like he was done to me if he had so much ambition that he would sue a guy to try to make him fight him again after he already destroyed Mike the first time! Lewis wanted to keep fighting! Vitali just ruined his plans.

I beleive a prime tyson would of destroyed lennox. but lennox is top5 hands down.

to the people who think lewis was gettign better as the fight goes on....IMO if he looked any wrose then he did in round 2 he would been KO'd hahahahaha, so of course he was doing a little better he had to, if u look at round 6 lewis was just waiting for that uppercut he was so obviously setting it up and when he hit it and vitali didnt go down i bet u insdie he was like o ****. he couldnt last another round 1 more shot and it was over lewis had nothing left. remeber guys vitlai is 34 that isnt exactly prime either imo

Good points! Not that it matters much but didn't Vitali just turn 33? Wasn't he 31 when he fought Lewis?

Regardless, Vitali should have jumped on Lennox in that 2nd roun and finished him when he had Lewis hurt and none of this debating would be taking place!

...Man, you got that right. Vit knows he made a mistake in that fight with Lewis by not finishing him in the second round and I guarantee you that he will never make that mistake again.

....So by your rational then Tyson is like top three?? lol lol lol Good comedy my man. A prime Vitali whips em both baring a freak occurence so where do you think that would put him?

[BBFM]

nah, he couldent beat a worn out lennox lewis.

tyson thing might be to far stretched but i think tyson would kick the **** out of muhammad ali.

....Yeah, you mean the 5 pounds overweight Lewis who was in great shape like right before that fight and nobody had mentioned his looking old or tired in his last few fights. Yeah, suddenly he just got tired, old, and out of shape in the Vitali fight. Yeah, that is an unbelievable transformation. I have a feeling that if Vitali hadn't come along then Lewis would have been "in his prime" for several more years. What a convenient excuse Lennox had ready made. Nobody dictated to Lewis like Vitali did and Lennox was stumped. He did not believe he could beat big V in a rematch or he would have fought him. Vitali got inside of his head in a major way and Lewis was not about to step back in the ring with him. If something miraculous occurs and Rahman beats Vit with a lucky punch then Lewis will come out of retirement. He prays every day that somebody will get rid of Vitali so he can come back and fight some stiffs for big paydays.

i think the same thing would of happened again, lewis would of cut vitali to ribbons again, the question is,if vitali got cut that bad again and it went on more rounds would it do permanant damage to vitali's face, and is it worth it?
