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

[thuggery]

I would seriously laugh if Lewis folded Wlad coming out of retirement..

[MRCHOKEaMF]

If he really was offered 50 million then he must be rich beyond his dreams or just doesn't care about money not to take it...that's alot of money.

Yes but PacMan turned down 40mil over a drug test so i guess he's rich beyond his dreams or doesnt care about money

How was the Lennox-Vitali fight controversial?

Vitali started off well, surprised Lennox (as well as most fans - not me who predicted he'd do well. I was also at the fight), then Lewis figured him out, hurt him, cut him & he couldn't continue.

Nothing controversial unless you like to be hysterical about things.

An old Lewis then retired & Vitali went on to prove what an excellent fighter he was/is.

Many underestimated him because of the way he quit against Chris Byrd but he's smarter than the average boxer. He realised that one loss isn't the end of the world but f.ucking his shoulder up worse could be the end of his career.

because he looked tired and looked like hew was about to go out, and the cut bailed him out. it was incredibly obvious why it was controversial

But Lewis won the last round before it was stopped

50 is enough, i mean, why not?

lennox is 48 & wlad has many options in front of him now. he is 37 so I don't expect 3 fights a year anymore but no reason not to fight quality opposition from here on out...

Yo that effer almost got beat by vitali years ago if it wasn't for vitali suffering a bad cut cause you know these guys cut bad easy and the ref stopping it he was goin down man he's a chump he promised vitali a rematch and then retired cause he knows what he was in for facing either brother.

100Mill to save the HW division is worth it

All Lewis would need to do is land one uppercut and its lights out Wlad

[Cuban Linx]

Hey they should be ashamed for even trying to fight a 48 year old retired for 10 years

It looks bad on both them. It took Lennox this long to give a rematch to a Klitschko.

It looks bad on the Klitschko's for targeting Lennox. Lennox is nowhere near fighting shape.

almost my azz

Lennox beat the dog crap out of Vitali to the point where Vitali was gassed, if anything that cut saved Vitali from ending up like Michael Grant.

Vitali spent the later rounds holding on for dear life with his legs buckled, to this day Vitali hasn't suffered a beating like that.

I wish the doc hadn't stopped the fight so we could witness Vitali get knocked out, no way was he making it to the 12, he was gasping for air, Lennox started dominating again. Vitali had a chance in the early rounds, and he blew it, experience took over and LL started dominating.

Lennox gave Vitali a beating of his life and not the other way around
