would Lewis come out of retirement.....

Thats a tough one. I wouldn't mind seeing him comback and fighting Vitali again. Give him a tune-up fight first of course.

lewis isnt coming back for anything. he has done the right thing but people still complain. people beg for holyfield to retire yet they want a 39 year old lennox lewis to come back

He doesn't need the money, he's still in the limelight, he never lost to anyone that he didn't beat later

he's getting old; why would he come back?

**Pno** · 12-12-2004, 11:38 PM

dont get me wrong, i don't really want him to come back unless I could see VK whoop him (why would he come back just for that)
I just want him to shut up or come back, one or the other.

but then again, i guess he's entitled to say whatever he feels like, he's super rich

He'd be 40 years old . . . let the old man retire. Even if he came back and Klitschko beat him it wouldn't be anything, just like Lewis's win over Tyson and Marciano's win over Louis were hollow victories. . .

let VK whip a couple live bodies, then you can talk smack like that. Not every fighter stands directly in front of Vitali and tries to trade. Not every fighter, just the ones Vit's people schedule.

yea dont think theres any chance of lewis comin back at all

Fighters are notorious about doing things they need not do. Lewis NEED not come out of retirement, I think. But if he does, we'll, he's not the first one who needn't but did.

Even with the Klit fight, his legacy has been assured.

Even the greatest ones, like Robinson, has had close victories (even losses) that they should have won handily had they entered the ring in their best form and mind-set.

Because they got unsettled buisness.

And LL are only to this date to slug it out and make a dog fight with VK, the rematch would be crazy.
