Why are you Vitali fans so mad about the TKO6 thing?

    No one is disputing that vitali wasn't fit to continue. You're argument is that the fight wasn't close and as a result didn't warrant a rematch, as in your words it was a ''slaughter''.

    How could it have not been close when the person who lost was ahead on points?

    Anyway you're clearly trolling as you make absolutely no sense and unfortunately just another ****** in a long line of cretins who can't accept reality.

    There were two consecutive uppercuts landed near the end of round six, and both connected with sufficient force to snap by Vitali's head and draw "ooh's" from the crowd. Vitali stumbled forward and held Lewis, and the two careened into the ropes as the bell rang. But the impetus of the Journey into the strands was because VK was still lurching forward after taking uppercuts that were delivered with enough force to cause his head to rocket back on his shoulders. Smothered arm punches don't have that effect on someone.

    In truth, I thought Lewis had his most dominant round in the 6th. He didn't land as frequently with the cross, but he landed consistently with the uppercut and did land several glancing over hand rights that exacerbated the damage to the eye.

    Not sure if he carries that momentum into a hypothetical 7th, but Lewis had it going his way when the fight was (justifiably) called.

    OH! You're not just basing the fight off the result... you're basing it off the sixth round too!

    TKO6 because of a cut... while winning on the score cards... thats pretty close.

    do a poll if you have to but i assure you 90-95% of people will tell you that a rematch is appropriate.

    I've already said the first match was fair and lewis caused so much damage to vitali's face that it was right to stop the fight. But in terms of boxing skill they were both on par with each other.

    I don't know why you're explaining how the 6th round played out. Both fighters were gassed at the point and holding on to each other. Yes Lewis edged the last round no doubt, but to discard the rest of the fight from the 1st round to the 5th while vitali was ahead on points and then suggest it was a one sided slaughter that never needed a rematch to settle the differences is beyond silly.

    probably for the same reason the Lewis fans claim he was fat and out of shape just because he was at a career high in weight. Wlad is at a career high for the fight against Thompson. Is he fat and out of shape and unmotivated etc?

    i dunno, i could go slap crazy on James Toney but if i neglect my defence theres only one way the fight would go, he'd wreck me once he wakes up despite my points lead.

    It's not the TKO6. . . It's Lewis promising a rematch, and then ROBBING REAL BOXING FANS of a legitimate winner. . . ANY REAL BOXING FAN should have called "Hoe" on that move. . . We were robbed of finding out who is truly the H2H GOAT between the two, and the best of the past two generations. . .

    No REAL BOXING FAN, should be happy when fights end like that. . .

    Vitali was a late fill in for Kirk Johnson. If I was Lennox, I would have never aggreed to that in the first place. That's the reason Lewis didn't come in the best shape.
