    You turned it into an argument with insults like a bitch full of estrogen.
    Lewis was done , beat everybody he had to beat and was at the end of his career at 38 , that’s his excuse right there so stop whining and move on.

      Vitali could compete in any era, he would have beat Lennox in the rematch. Prime for prime it would be a 50/50 fight. Vitali will always be under rated, he was a lot better than his younger brother.

          he was 37, or was it 38? are you saying every heavyweight champion in history was pathetic for retiring the title by that age or earlier? They were entitled to retire in my opinion, all of them. I tihnk you'll find noone disputes them doing it. You dont either.

          So why the special case for Lennox - because Lewis easily ripped your man apart without trying?

            Lennox didn`t need an excuse, just the fact is Vitali was his hardest fight.

              Lennox was entitled to retire but I'd have loved rematch. I hate when a fighter gets cut. Outcome of a fight down to having thinner skin or whatever is reason for some getting cut so easy. Don't sit well with me
              Id prefer the person taking most punches to be cut if someone has to be.

                  This guy is something else. U would think after all these years he would just give the other guy some credit

                    There's a reason they call him "Shannon the Cannon". As for his lack of endurance, the guy's an asthmatic. It's amazing he was able to get as far as he did.

                      Agreed, Wlad is the flashy pretty boy. Vitali is the beast who will not go down without a fight. He was begging the ref not to stop the fight on that cut & insisted on a rematch. Lennox knew "Dr. Steel Hammer" was going to take him to hell in a rematch and bowed out of the sport. I don't blame him, when it's time, it's time. But for him to say there was no point in a rematch because he knew he'd win easily is simply not true.
