Pno .... such a big Klit fan and never seen the fight!
Well, I just saw the fight for the first time this week and watched it four times within a couple days. Your guy Klit was busier and more accurate than Lewis, so he was winning rounds for that simple reason. I gave him 4 or 5 rounds at the stoppage.
Trouble is Vitali only landed a couple real power shots over six rounds. Round 3 Lewis landed a classic Lennox right hand (clean) that exploded Vit's eye. Immediately after the shot the guys clinched and you can see the blood flowly very nicely from the eye area. No laces, no palm, no forearm, nothing but padded glove broke him wide open. Vitali didn't respond very well to that shot, but Lennox did. Lewis focussed with sharp jabs right on that eye throughout the round. Sure the cut got worse over the remaining three rounds, but the real damage was done in Round 3.
The very bad cut = TKO. That's boxing for you. No haters there.
