Comments Thread For: Vitali Klitschko Still Taking Shots at Lennox Lewis

[IMDAZED]

I'll explain just one more time. the last I hope.

Klitschko originally thought that he had pulled a thigh muscle, because he noticed a pain when jogging. The "popular" feeling was that it was a fake because how could you pull a muscle from jogging. The fight was postponed for 6 weeks, just the time it would take to properly heal a thigh muscle. It didn't respond to treatment, so, noticing this, K asked for a CT scan.

This revealed that he had NOT damaged a thigh muscle, that he had a pinched branch of the sciatic nerve which went to his thigh, that in fact he had a spinal bony growth, a natural occurrance, which caused the pinching. This required remedial surgery, where they open the back, to the spine, and clip off the extra bony growth, which also required time to heal. So the fight was tentatively rescheduled.

In the meantime, King and Rahman had a high old time tearing Klitschkos reputation to shreds, and, cleverly arranged a Rahman-Barrett interim championship fight (if you could call it that) which, because Barrett was a close friend, and also well on the downgrade, broke all records for 12 round stinkaroos. Klitschko protested as his fight with Rahman had been tentatively re scheduled for 6 weeks later, also, if Rahman won, which was more or less a given, he could ask for a much higher share of the purse as Interim Champ. Both King and Rahman assured him that Rahman would be easily able to do this fight.

In the event, they never kept their promise, and no more was heard of THAT fight.
It was finally arranged definitely for Nov. and as we all know K, in sparring, got his legs entangled with his prelim fighter sparring partner, came down heavily, smashed his anterior cruciate ligament, a devastating injury, and the fight was postponed for this, the ONLY actual injury he had suffered. Not without, of course wild rumours that he had been KO d by his sparring partner, and the injury was a fake, he was trying to duck Rahman etc. and all that c****roo.

The WBC gave him a 90 day delay, which was only about a third of the time needed, at best, for recovery, which even then was not assured, so, K, not wanting to hold up the Division any longer, retired.

None of the dates except the first and last, were ever more than suggested, with no tickets, advertising, changed contracts, undercards, etc.etc. And, as you now know, he had only ONE injury, the knee break, which effectively retired him for years. That he could return after so long away, and with no warm-up fight, destroy the once beaten killer Nigerian Nightmare Sam Peter, is testimony to his quality, and the narrow escape that Rahman actually had.................

Phew, that is tiring..........

It must've been. Imagine trying to explain all that horse**** while demanding you hold on to your title. So in other words...he pulled out for FOUR separate injuries. And you mention at least TWO separate occurances and yet try to pull them altogether.

I think Vitali is just upset that he genuinly thought he was winning, and was going to beat LL. But his face let him down. His soft skin couldnt hold up. Probably the skin on his face was too soft because it hadnt tasted too much leather in his career. But neither had LL come to think of it.

He dont want LL now, but is just crying about what could have been. Let him get it out of his systemm

I must admit I was wrong about you I thought you could both read, and UNDERSTAND what you d read. I humbly confess I was very wrong, you can do neither, as evidenced by your intemperate little diatribe above.

Still, I mustn t be condemnatory, and bigoted, since that would make me somewhat like you, and that s the very last thing I want to be.

So I must thank you, as you ve relieved me of any need to ever respond to you again, which certainly is not a small mercy.

And so would any other reasonable, intelligent person, of whom this site has more than a few, when they want to make themselves known.

I'm back here. Sizzled, tired yet slightly amused by Daizy. Normally he seems sane. Not in this thread however.

No Battling, I think it s just your inate kindness which is causing you to say that.

There s NO HOPE for the guy.

And by GUY, I mean as in Guy Fawkes Day.
