Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis Rejects $50 Mill For Klitschko, Wants Double

Wlads never been in the ring with someone who ****s hard as LL

Not true......its debatable that he's faced several harder punchers than Lewis including Peter, Sanders, Williamson and Brewster. Now, if you wanted to say as skilled as Lewis, you would be correct.

Vitali would be pissed if Lennox would come back only to fight his little bro instead of him

This was the first thing I thought when I saw this article.

I think that people begin to underestimate Wlad because of his last fight. Wlad is extremely gifted, his weakness is his fear of losing. Wlad is a dangerous fight for every boxer. I mean come on, he dropped Povetkin with a jab in the second round.

It was a short left hook, but I think everyone knows what you mean

because we just saw wlad "fight" and he sucks

If Wlad sucks, I imagine the nearly 50 year old, very out of shape, inactive for years version of Lewis sucks even more, especially considering he was already showing signs of slowing down 10 years ago.

Wlad was terrified of Haye he would literally jump out the ring against Lennox.

Maybe prime Lewis. Not the ancient, grossly overweight version of Lewis.

Wlad was terrified of Haye he would literally jump out the ring against Lennox.

No. Vitali started excellently against a man in his 38th year who hadn't fought in over a year. But Lewis figured him out & was catching Vlad coming in.

I know it's different on tv but when you watch boxing in the arena you can almost feel the power of the punches. That uppercut by Lewis drained Vitali.

I know a lot on here are pro one or the other. I like both fighters. I don't have an agenda. Vitali started well but the Champ was getting on top. It happens a lot. Vitali learnt from the experience & went on to become a great Champion himself. People want to make it a bigger deal than it is because, well that's just how it is now.

Vitali looked the fresher fighter in the ring after the fight to me even if his eye was worse for wear.

No one is seriously going to pay him 50 million or even 10 million. He is 50 years old and no one wants to see him beaten to near death or stopped in 2 rounds. How would watching a 50 year olds washed up "performance" be worth 1 million even???

100 million? Nice joke Lennox.
