    Only Klittards could spin a TKO loss for their hero as a win.

    Lewis is, has always been, and always will be better than Vitali.

      Instead, he retired with his tail between his legs

      Lennox fought Vitali in June 2003. A few weeks later Wladimir Klitschko was KOd by Corrie Sanders.


      Try again.

        I agree and think that Lennox has a lot of good wins but nothing will allow me to give him a pass on not taking the rematch. He owed it to Vitali and boxing and he said, "f off, I'm a pu55".

          Absolutely this ^. Anything to the contrary is based on supposition/delusion rather than fact.

          I'm a big fan of Wlad, but some of the posts in here are moronic.

            VK was LL's best opponent by FAR! Who else.. E Holyfield? M Tyson? Get out of here!

            And you do admit this win was just a BIT lucky right?

            This was a close to prime Lewis, there's no doubt.
            Yeah, at a career-heavy weight...

              I swear myself and Simurgh are the only rational Klitschko fans on NSB.

                So because he won on cuts he's better?

                Myself, the crowd and most importantly, the boxing experts ringside don't agree with that. Everyone knows Vitali was winning and Lewis was lucky to escape with a win. In fact, it was quoted that way.

                Keep dreaming buddy, keep dreaming.

                Vitali stormed in and kicked off the Klitschko era that still goes on strong today.

                Like it or hate it but you can't do sh@t about it and it makes me smile inside and out.

                  Lewis has a far better resume than Vitali. It's not even up for debate.

                    Shut up you moron, you have nothing as usual. In a year and a half or whatever you've offered nothing but this sort of rubbish.

                    Nobody claimed VK won.

                    Everybody claimed the fight was inconclusive, hence calls for rematch!

                    What basis do you have for your entire last statement? None I bet! Just ramblings of a fool.

                    I love LL, think he's great, could be best... There is nothing to conclude he was better than Vitali.

                      Except there's one thing I will say against VK... At the time Haye and WK fought.. I personally think David Haye could have UD'd Vitali... Of course I think the prime Vitali would have beaten Haye soundly!
                      Nobody would UD Vitali, no way. Haye's workrate would have made that impossible.
