        Corley was a top five contender at 140 at the time and in his prime.

        Briggs was a top ten contender at HW years ago and was no better than Corley in his prime. Maybe worse. And was SHOT when Vitali fought him. Don't be ******. Actually, you must be ****** to be even saying this stuff so just forget the conversation. Peace

            You're right, he stopped him in five instead and did it to a guy 13 years better.

                Lennox is not even of the same era as these clowns and still TKO'd both in 11 combined rounds.... No mystery who's the best is....
                think Id take briggs opinion who was in there with both fighters over a lewis nuthugger. sorry man

Briggs couldn't land a glove on Vitali, who clearly isn't in his prime either, plus had a five year layoff. Resume alone is what has lewis ahead of Vitali, because in terms of who is the better fighter that is surely up for debate. Yes Lennox has a win over vitali but we all know the circumstances surrounding that fight.
                  great post. end of thread

                    Shannon Briggs "Vitali is the best fighter I've ever fought"

                    Lewis was badly hurt serveral times and was out on his feet against a green Shannon Briggs.

                    40 year old Vitali completely dominated and destroyed Shannon Briggs.


                    Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis

                    THE TRUTH

                    Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.

                    Vitali was clearly winning the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis was badly hurt and was staggering around the ring like a drunk, he barely survived the 2nd round. Lewis was getting outboxed, outworked, outlanded and was hurt several times in the fight.

                    punches landed

                    Vitali 156

                    Lewis 102


                    Lewis was exhausted, worn down and hurt from the accumulation of punches and was ready to get KTFO again, he collapsed onto his stool at the end of the 6th round, Vitali was the fresher of the two, he was a man on a mission and would've KO'd Lewis for sure if the fight had continued.

                    All the fans at Staples Center cheered for Vitali and booed Lewis after the fight.

                    Lewis promised Vitali a rematch.

                    Vitali destroyed Kirk Johnson in 2 rounds and called out Lewis again in the post fight interview. The scared Lewis retired shortly after that fight.

                    Lewis turned down 30 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.

                    Vitali dominated Lewis and scared him into retirement.

                    Lewis wasn't preparing for Vitaly either. Vitaly never landed any meaningful punches after the 2nd round, so I don't get were you seen Lewis hurt several times. It was Lewis that landed the harder punches after the 2nd and all the proof is in Vitali's face and the fact he was holding on for dere life at the end of the 6th round. Had the fight gone on any longer, The old past prime over weight Lewis would have knocked him out. Lets face it, Vitali is at his best at 39 which is incredible. He would beat any HW in history at 39 years of age but not all of them prime for prime. Keep it in perspective.

                      a)would have bled immediately
                      and
                      b)the hbo crew would hav known exactly wear it came from.they actually thought the blood was from lewis
                      first thing. the camera angle after the punch was landed.....simply wasn't zoomed in....but he was bleeding if you pause it right after the punch was landed. when the punch was landed the camera angle was zoomed OUTWARD. seconds later it zooms inward to catch a closer look of the action & THATS when the hbo crew noticed the cut that was caused by the punch too....BTW. when a punch is landed and a cut forms it takes time for the blood to run (i feel like I'm debating a 2nd grader)

                      & heres a tip. go back to school LOL

                      what you are saying is INHUMANLY impossible...it literally defies the rules of gravity.

                      that cut on vitalis eye was very deep & wide. no way a glove that barely touches vitalis eye causes such a deep cut. also. there was no tape hanging on lewis's glove so THATS another lie thats out the door.

                      lewis lands a BOMB on the EXACT same eye that vitali starts bleeding out of seconds later. open & closed case.
