    he has a short interview in the Klitschko documentary. saying that there are 4 belts, and having to split them up cheapens the heavyweight championship, since there can only be one king of the hill, like he was.

    Lennox is devaluing his great legacy every time he opens his whiny mouth.

    So without the K brothers and 4 random bums holding the belts instead the HW title would have a higher value? Is that what Lewis meant?

    Or did he mean when he dropped his IBF belt because he didn't want to face Chris Byrd? Did Lennox stop being the 'king of the hill' then?

    So, he's saying having four belts devalues the HW division. Not the Klitschko bros.

    Wlad is the real champ. I think what Lewis is saying only one man should hold all the belts, Lewis did accomplish that beating Holyfield. I understand, but don't necessarily agree.


    What is crap, is that the #1 and #2 guys won't fight eachother. Like Floyd/Pac :-(

    Lewis always sounds like a sore looser when he talks about Klitschkos.

    People debate about Lewis nationality, is he Canadian, Jamaican or British? With the amount of butthurt Lewis has over the Klitschkos every time he opens his mouth, it's irrefutable that he's a Brit.

    totally agree, casuals or non fans get confused when i say multiple titles, but as a true fan who understands boxing we must be able to differentiate the champion vs the belt holder

    Wlad holds the WBA IBF WBO Plus the RING, Vitali holds the WBC

    it is a shame that Wlad couldnt get certain opponents like Arreola, Adamek, Solis Chisora like Vitali did

    Lennox hardly had as many titles in his collection when he retired
