    Vitali > Lewis

    Lewis is a ***** for refusing the match. Vitali at 40 years old beats the **** out of Lewis in his prime

    Vitaly was better on the night, but LL got the W on his record.

    Lucky like Foreman said, but those are the rules. Lennox did retire because he thought deep down that he would probably lose.

    All you need to do is look at his eye to understand why the fight was stoped. Vitili could have won every round and out landed Lewis 100 to 1. Lewis's punches caused his eye to be like that. It was only going to get worse. You could try to argue that Lewis was gassed, but when was the last timed a fight was stopped on account of being gassed?
    Lewis won because he did more visible damage to Vatilli than Vatilli did to Lewis. This was not some one time event. It is how boxing works.
    It's also his left eye which means that it was getting hit by Lewis's right his power hand.

    Lewis won the fight fair and square, but I do think he had enough afterwards.

    It does because all the fans will now be able to stick to lewis tko6 aso, and most casual people wont even know he "avoided" a 2nd fight. Most casuals don't dig deep they just look at the record and see he beat v.klit.
