[Mr. Invincible]

It was a piece of boxing history and im glad we were able to witness!

That said VKlits got TKOed by the version of Lewis that gets KTFO end of story.

Both versions of Lewis got KTFO.

TKO Round 6.


Get over it. No ref would/should let a fighter continue with such an injury.

I wonder what Vitali will say when Chisora forces Vitali into retirement.

No way Vitali loses to either Rahman or McCall, EVER, much less gets laid out by them.

Vitali may not be perfect, but neither was Lennox. Far from it.

I have to wonder if the people who are so high on Lewis now are the same ones who dogged him back in the day the way the K-Bros get dogged now, with many of the same criticisms.

Dereck will wake up before he gets to that part of the dream.

at the Chisora-Vitali press conference the other day didn't Chisora say he thought Vitali beat Lennox, right after Lennox had been complimenting Derek and saying he had a chance at the upset too lol

This is what irritates me about Vitali. He fought a great fight and should have just accepted it and tried to get the rematch. Instead, he says he was injured when it was Lewis who caused the injuries with punches. He even said it was a headbutt by Lewis right after the fight, which was a clear lie. You cannot change the definition of a TKO. Lewis cut him multiple times with punches, yet both Vitali and a lot of supporters still claim it was some freak one off accident. Vitali has proven himself to be a very good heavyweight, but he needs to quit making excuses about that fight.

What you call his loss against Rahman then? Robbed the victory? Lol.

Nope but he certainly was not 'out cold'. That would be Hatton against Pacquiao.

Ok you are missing the point. The point was that Vitali had been beating Lewis and Lennox was lucky he won at all and failed to give a very warranted rematch everyone wanted to see.
