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

[New England]

The only reason Lewis wants to come back is because his fortune is running out. Now he wants 100 mil so he can stay rich. Wlad should turn it down. Offer him 20 mil and nothing more.100 million after the way he punked out in the rematch with Vitali the great. Hell no, he doesn't deserve it.

if he was really running out of money he wouldn't price himself out of the fight.


lewis is still quite wealthy. it's well documented.

Lewis didnt figure jack **** out.

He was hitting and holding and was down on all 3 score cards as the belt holder, so Vitali was schooling him.

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.

Wladimir would win, I doubt it happens anyway.

I see Lennox has kept that mischievous little twinkle in his eye, and his name in the mouths of boxing fans.

"I want $50 million to slide out off my pajama bottoms, and another $50 million dollars to get into my trunks"

Lets hope he's insured for a wardrobe malfunction, 'cause any mistakes could be very costly.

First off, Lennox Lewis even at 48 would destroy Wlad. Do you actually think jabbing and hugging would beat lennox Lewis. Wlad is the most boring champion of all times and he fights like a total *****. Why is Lennox finally considering coming back to fight Wlad, because he knows we will kick his ass! Wlad fights like a total *****... if it wasn't for his size he wouldn't even be champ. Lennox is the same size and as soon as Lennox nails Wlad he'll ***** up and get ko'd! Lennox Lewis bests Wlad easy. (ever notice how Vitali takes all the dangerous fights? example: Shannon Briggs, Arreola... Wlad stays away from the brawlers because he's such a wimp.

COME ON, LEWIS... kick this guy's ass!!!

I suppose you only started watch boxing by wlad vs povetkin. Why so suddenly after that ugly fight out of no where people act like wlad is all that bad. It is not his actual style,he do the dirty tactics for safety first reason. Even lewis and holyfield done that vs tyson,hopkins done that against tito, etc.2. Yes he is boring in style, but being one champ with the highest ko of 51 times put his opponent sleep most of his career surely at the very least he left audience with satisfaction of ko scene. He isnt boring in a mayweather way who always win by decision and safety first as well. David haye fight boring caused by haye running like chicken and refuse to engage, while on the other fights he is always being the aggresor with his opponent running around and knock them out eventually

[umop-ap!sdn]

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

100% Truth right there. Lewis was on route to putting Vitali on his back! The Klit was holding, and gassed from trying to take out Lewis with his early barrage. What is wrong with you idiots? My Lawd did you all not see those uppercuts?? That first one he landed in Rd 6 sent Vitali holding him and stumbling across the ring. The 2nd one looked like it took whatever gusto he had left right out, than the round ended. Did yall not see tha? I know the ref saw it cause he aint let the Klit come out for another second of that sht!! Nothing controversial about that fight.

[lutenco]

I'd pay for this fight;LENNOX with a early stoppage no doubts about it!!! The great Emmanuel Stewart trained both so it's really a chess match but LEWIS will close the show in 4/5 rounds with a deja vu of RAHMAN 2 KO;left right boom boooom!!!! The first hard punch that LENNOX land will be a nightmare for WLAD especially because he can't clinch and push down a tall man like LENNOX......THIS FIGHT WILL BE A HISTORIC COMEBACK/FIGHT PREPARING US FOR A VITALY-LEWIS 2"!!!

[Curtiz]

Stranger things have happened in boxing, lewis always has a chance due to power & size andthe power. is the last to go....

[Lords]

Sure lets pay him 100 mill, but what if he gases and gets KO'd in the first or second round? He's not worth a 100 mill at this point. You would be foolish to put up that money, even 50 mill is idiotic.

Stop being silly. Old Lewis gets sparked out. Too long out of the ring and training.
