      Vitali KO'd Francis in 2.

      Tyson-Norris was a no contest.

      Vitali destroyed Norris in the 1st round.

      Tyson KO'd Ribalta in 10.

      Vitali KO'd Ribalta in 2.

      Lewis KO'd Tyson.

      Vitali dominated Lewis, whooped his ass and scared him into retirement.

      Williams destroyed Tyson in 4.

      Vitali annihilated Williams. It was one of the most brutal beatdowns of all time.
      LOL When did that happen?

        Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis

        THE FACTS

        Vitali took the fight on just 10 days notice.

        Vitali was dominating the fight 4-2 on all 3 scorecards at the time of the controversial doctor stoppage. Lewis barely survived the 2nd round and almost got KO'd, he was badly hurt, holding on for dear life, wobbling everywhere and staggering around the ring like a drunk. Lewis was badly hurt several times in the fight and was getting outslugged, outworked, outmuscled, outlanded and outboxed by Vitali.

        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 clearly 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.

        After the fight, Vitali intimidated the shit out of Lewis and made him look like a bitch.

        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 40 million dollars for a rematch and retired like a coward because he knew he would get destroyed by Vitali.

        Vitali dominated Lewis, whooped his ass and scared him into retirement.



        George Foreman: "Vitali was winning the fight. Lewis got lucky. There has to be a rematch!"

        Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"

        Even Emanuel Steward was upset and pissed off at Lewis for blatantly ducking a Vitali rematch.

        Lewis is scared to death of Vitali.

          More FACTS

          Vitali wasn't even in his prime yet.

          Lewis was 37, not really that old for a HW.

          Vitali is 40 and is still dominating. He hasn't lost a single round in his comeback.

          Lewis said he was "at the peak of my powers" when he got his ass whooped by Vitali.

          Lewis was coming off the KO win over Tyson. In the Lewis-Tyson post fight interview Lewis stated "I'm like fine wine, I get better with age"

          In an interview right before the Vitali fight, Lewis said "I'm at the peak of my powers, I will keep fighting for many more years"

          Lewis: "Vitali Klitschko was the toughest fight of my career"

          Vitali dominated Lewis, whooped his ass and scared him into retirement.

          Vitali Klitschko >>> Lennox Lewis

          Wladimir Klitschko >>> Lennox Lewis

              Vitali lost the 6th round badly and Lewis never "collapsed" on his stool. You're making stuff up and trying to pass it off as "facts"

                Tyson would probably scare the ***** out of Wlad in the ring. His head movement, speed and power would make Wlad uncomfortable.

                Tyson/Vitaly would be a hell of a fight. Could go either way.

                  This thread is about Mike Tyson not a fight you Klit fans still can't get over not even EIGHT YEARS later. Lennox beat Vitali, end of story and had Lennox been a few years younger and a few pounds lighter I'm not so sure Vitali would've looked as good early on as he did.

                  Anyhow I think Tyson gives everyone problems but Vitali. Vitali would be too tall and would effectively keep Tyson at bay with his jab.

                    Tyson couldn't get past Lewis's jab, I'm not sure he'd fare any better with the Klitschko jab. They really are huge compared to him too, Haye is 6'3 but Tyson was 5'10 and the Klits are 7'tree or something

                      Mike Tyson nowadays would be in the NBA slamming dunks with his HGH enhanced seven foot beanpole body.
