It`s no fluke when the cut is caused by repeated hard right hands ... Lenox was overweight and past his prime. He had nothing to prove anymore... He was one of the rare ones, bow out while still on top. Good for him ...

Besides, how unclassy was it of Vitali to call Lewis out years after he had retired ???

Still living down the fact that he ran from a tremendously lucrative rematch with Vitali. Big George Foreman openly implied he was a coward for running from Vitali when he was commentating for HBO. Lennox's legacy will always be marred by this craven display of cowardice.

Lennox could be the smartest boxer post career.

he got out when he was kinda bored and over it, made a ton of money , and never made the comeback, never in trouble outside the ring.

Ray Mercer kicked his ass though.

You mean in the sense that's it's unclassy to make another man a promise to his face and then not honor it?

If it was so easy for Lewis, why turn down approx 30 million for a rematch he promised? Why????

WTF are u talking about here fella?

1. Lewis is still crying about his win over Vitali. WHAT!
2. You'll find Lewis was declining before he fought Tyson.
3. Who as ever said it was an easy fight for old, semi-retired Lewis???
4. 30 million ???? You sure...

People get mauled by bears and get less stitches.

Great post mate.

he never promised shit you fucking retard

learn what "promise" means and tell me if what he said constitutes as a "promise" ... you wont find out with your nose up the klits ass

10 years later and these faggots still going on over rematches ... then rematches dont mean shit when it comes to puritty, sanders, charr, byrd etc.

Lewis is waiting for Vitali to retire to make the comeback.

Vitali couldn`t beat on old, over the hill overweight unmotivated Lewis... If you knew anything about boxing, you`d know that Lewis was NEVER afraid of anyone in the ring. At least he had ths smarts to know it was his time to walk away. If only, Ali, SRR,Louis knew that back then. Vitali`s `career` is a joke compared to Lewis`... While your thinking and whining about poor Vitali. Tink about this, how bad Vitali`s face would have looked if he fought a prime and in shape Lewis...
