Should Lennox Lewis' missed punch that cut Vitali be considered a No Contest?

    "Lennox Lewis is scared to fight me."



    Klitland, where getting your face smashed to a bloody mess until you risk serious injury warrants a rematch.

    And winning two rounds clearly out of six constitutes "domination" and "retiring Lewis"

    It was the inside of the glove but opened up during clinches with Lewis's arm around Vitali's neck. I wouldn't say Lewis should have been DQ'd but it should have either been an NC or went to the cards, in which case Vitali UD6.

    "No contest"? read the rules. It is should be Technical Decision for Vitali since he was up on the card.

    genuinely can't stand the people who make excuses for Vitali and try everything they can to take the shine of Lewis' win at the end of his career. Almost as annoying as the people who swear blind Lewis couldn't stand and was going to be KO-ed in round 7. It's TKO 6 in Lewis' favour, he was old and out of shape and proved his class by taking Vitali's face apart and penetrating his defence like nobody else has done.

    Aside from the usual Lewis fantard BS in your post. He took the shine of it himself by promising a rematch, backing out after Johnson was destroyed in two, and then after being ordered by the WBC to rematch Vitali quit like a ***** the day before he was going to be stripped. Nobody took any shine from Lewis's 'win' other than Lewis himself.

    Lewis was not a stupid man why would anyone who had a tough last fight, who clearly wasn't as up for the fight as in previous years, who is also a multi millionaire many times over want to risk a fight against a tough guy when you already have a win against them :huh
