All these Lewis fans would be voting Vitali if he hadn't sustained that cut opened up from an illegal shot? Lewis also chickened out of a rematch and as a consequence doesn't deserve the respect he gets.Comment

Lewis beats all of the guys on that list. I think Holmes and Lewis could stand toe to toe with any of ATG Heavyweights
I always seem to sense some bitterness from US fans towards Lennox, its pretty unfounded considering he beat everybody infront of him, got robbed v Holyfield, avenged his losses and has the ability, size and power to match any Heavyweight of any eraComment

Vitali wanted to fight, everyone wanted to fight, wasnt that bad of a cut, Vitali was up 4 rounds to 2. Lewis never beat Vitali, he got a gift from the ref. Why did he duck the rematch after he said he would give a rematch like a man? Why did he duck him and retire if he won the fight? He always got a rematch when he lost, why didnt he give the same curtosy? Even today Steward talks about how he was mad with Lewis for not being a man and giving a rematch.
Truth is, Vitali hasnt been beaten legitly and has lost around 5 ROUNDS in his entire career while maintaining a high ko %.
Yea he's such a BUM! If he fought in the 60/70's with those bums it wouldnt have been close unless they cheated by injecting drugs into his water or fixing the fight.
I dont see how you rate someone who has been dominant for so long who hasnt given up more than 5 rounds in his life against fighters in 60's/70's who fought drunks in fixed Mafia fights.
People always think that people were better 60 or 70 years ago, but they werent. Its always like that, nostalgic past. Like Kids will be growing up thinking Jerry West or Bill Walton were these amazing players, lol. Just like in 60 years people will say LeBron was so crazy good, but he wasnt, just a bum who plays for 3 quarters.
All thruout History it hasnt been the best who have won, its the people who write the books. You think half the stuff in History books is true with their Heros? Half of it is BS that the winners of the War/Authors wrote to make them look good.
Thats why people need to speak the truth. Theres clowns in here who are saying Marciano would own the HW division if he was alive today, when he fought bums and drunks his entire career.
I simply shook my head in absolute utter disbelief.Comment
