I'm a US American. I like fighters from all over the world of many races and creeds. My reputation for being fair preceeds me.
The same cannot be said for you.

And I have said many positive things about the Klitschkos. I just don't go overboard and start sounding like I want to have their children the way you and the other Klit fantards do.
Its amazing isn't it? You can say positive things about them till the cows come home, but if you criticize them in the least or are not on the bandwagon you get branded a hater by those who's lives revolve around them being the best at the moment.

If you say he did than you unwittingly admit Lennox threw the more effective punches. If you say he didn't than you're a liar, plain and simple.

Dr's opinion caused the stoppage. LL never proved that he was ready himself for rd 7 as the onus was all on Vitali to do so.

Originally posted by JAB5239 View PostLewis retired because he chose to, not because he was forced. And why did the doctor stop the fight? Because of cuts suffered from Lewis' more EFFECTIVE punches. End of story. You can't change the facts lil fella.Last edited by jimmy1569; 02-17-2012, 01:25 AM.

Please stop playing yourself JABBY baby... Skillful & effective punching causes retirements... NOT cuts... those things heal within 6 months.. retirement LASTS forever.. son...>>> SPEAKING ENGLISH here.. so it's you that is twisting the facts when you state LL's punches that eventually caused the ringside dr to stop the bout wHile he was LOSING is somewhat more effective than Lewis's LASTING impressions of 150 plus hammerlike shots onto his skull... jaw.. face & the part of the brain that causes nightmares everytime he thinks about getting hit by Vk again.
Now you're just trolling because you can't admit the facts and making things up like "borderline dirty". The punches Lewis landed caused the cuts. The cuts are the reason the fight was stopped, hence Lewis' punches were the more effective.
If Vitaly's punches were more effective than why didn't he get the supposed "glass jawed" Lewis out of there? Are you saying he isn't as good a puncher as Rahman and McCall even though he's (lmao!) the greatest slugger in history with the highest ko percentage?
And one more question. Could Lewis have fought again had he chose to?
It's to bad Vitaly's nuthuggers don't have nearly the class of their hero who had this to say about Lewis' retirement. ''I am sad to hear that Lennox Lewis had decided to retire,'' said Klitschko, the top-ranked contender for the World Boxing Council title, the only title Lewis retained, ''but I respect him for his decision. Lennox was one of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time and I am very proud and honored to say that I was able to fight him. Lennox was a credit to the sport for many, many years and his presence will be missed.'' -Vitaly Klitschko
