Lennox Lewis V.S. Vitali Klitschko

[Run]

Who won the fight in your opinion?

I had Lewis winning rounds 1,3,5,6.

VK won rounds 2 and 4 and was en route to getting brutally K.O.'d late in the fight. Lewis was playing Yo-Yo with his head.

If they fought again, Lewis would make a statement. Knocking the lesser fighter out cold. Reality is painful, so lets hear it.

VK was dangerously close to being the biggest disco dancer boxing has ever seen. He was holding on for dear life to Lennox's shoulders.

VK is the man for standing up to those punches. His chin is granite.

i think the first four rounds you could score either way, though VK might just get the nod. 5 and 6 were Lewis, and the momentum was definitely his when the fight ended, although to be fair they both looked ****ed.
The decision to stop was definitely correct, particularly as Lewis would have continued to target the left eye and VK would not have had the defensive skills to stop him.
Personally I believe Lewis wouldve gone on to win, although i accept there is a case for believeing the reverse, but at the end of the day he won fair and square anyway.

IMO i believe quite the contrary and VK would've KO'd him within the next 2 rounds. if u look at the end of the sixth lewis collapsed in his chair and even at the interview he was huffing and puffing

I gave a slight edge to Vitali. It could have possibly been a draw, some of those rounds were close.

VK first 2
lewis 3rd
VK 4th n 5th (5th close)

Very good points! Vitali would've KO'd Lewis in the 7th round.

I had it 3-2-1 for Vitali. Everyone thinks that Klitschko had Lewis ****ed and would have KO'd him in the next round...which is bull****. Lewis was still landing bombs (5/6 round uppercuts anyone) and Vitali was hurt for a short time. I think it would have been close until the next couple of big shots landed for either guy. If Lewis landed 2 more hard rights I think Klit would have been in trouble and the same goes the other way.

I am soo sick of this fight. It was one of the least important but most controversial fights ever. I don't care who would have won, I'm just pissed they didn't do it again so we would have a winner.

i think vitali was lucky the fight was stopped. he would of been ko!

Vitali 1-2-3-6
Lewis 4-5

I think Vitali was winning and ultimately would have won.

The Lewis out of shape theory is just a B.S. excuse for his poor performance. The fact is, he was just getting beat.

Having said that, they stopped the fight right about where they should have. Vitali's eye was pretty bad and could have caused permanent damage.

The problem with this story is Lennox's refusal to rematch Vitali leaving many of us to question if he still belonged as HW champ. After all, he was loosing on the cards. I don't think Lewis would have survived a rematch and I think he knew it.
