Lennox Lewis - Best Heavyweight Resume Ever

[Sledgeweather17]

Dude. Lummox was in camp for a fight for the greatest title in sport. Vitali prepared for an undercard slot. Big difference.

So now you run away and hide behind status and titles when I proved you wrong.

That's the point exactly. If you preparing for a big match and then you end up with a nobody (hyperbole), or if you preparing for a 'normal' match and end up with a legacy making fight, who is more likely to be more motivated for the fight in this scenario?


You see now, in your attempt to run away from the responsibilty of owning up to your mistake, you ended up arguing against yourself, coz now you proved that not only did Lennox and Vitali have the same timeframe of notice, but that also the circumstance would have favorted him.

There is a reason Lennox came in at a career high weight that day, and we both know it.

Stop running and face the truth.

Both fighters were exhausted, but one was far more busted up than the other. It was a legit win for Lewis, and if the fight had continued I have no doubt Vits would have been stopped.

I don't think so .the statistics show who was slowing down.We can argue it all day,whos to say vitali doesn't try and end it in the 7th round if he was told the fight was going to be stopped? Whos to say the cut doesn't get busted up more? I do know the cut was not effecting his eye site. Even Angelo Dundee of all people who would never give credit to either Klitchko said it was a bad stoppage and Vitali was on his way to becoming the new champion.

I didn't think this thread could get dumber untill someone said Larry Holmes is #1.

In every round Klitschko threw more punches. In rounds 1-5 Vitali landed more power punches. Round 6 Lennox landed .

In every round Klitschko threw more punches. In rounds 1-5 Vitali landed more power punches. *Round 6 Lennox landed more power punches 10-8. *(Hardly the sudden rise in power punches that Lennox fans have been claiming). As for jabs round 3 was even at 17 jabs landed apiece.

*In the other 5 rounds Vitali landed more jabs. So...let's see, Klitschko threw more punches in every round (by far). *In rounds 1,2, 4 and 5 Vitali landed more jabs and more power punches. There is no round that shows Lennox controlling in either punch volume or apreciable punches landed. The entire idea that Lennox was suddenly getting the upper hand comes from two punches landed right before the end or round 6. *


Yet....it was Lennox literally collapsing to his stool right before the Doctor ended it. Just being real. *Lennox is the champion on a bare technicality. *He lost the fight

He won the fight TKO 6 from damage he inflicted on Vitali. Check boxec or YouTube if you are not sure. Look up what a TKO is too while you are at it.

Lennox lost to rahman and mccall by KO. Losing to talentless mofos like them puts a massive stain on his resume.

You're right, we could argue semantics and opinions all day. What cannot be argued is who won the fight. I'll leave it at that as I have been through this hundreds of other times in the past.
