:thumbsup Lewis was two rounds down at the time of the stoppage. Vitali lasted half a fight with an old. overweight but still pretty capable version of Lewis before getting stopped. That is his crowning acheivement in boxing. Time to get over it fellas.....
Lewis would have completely dominated the rest of the fight winning by a substantial margin if not KO'ing Vitali. Even so TKO6 is wrote in history and Lewis will always be remembered for cutting Vitali to bits even when he was past his prime.
Nobody is bitter, just correcting the inaccuracy in your obvious Klitschko dick sucking post. Lewis was not heavily down at all, he was two rounds down at the halfway stage. A better question would be "how many fighters have been down two rounds down before stopping their opponent?", the answer to which would be "lots". Vitali's behaviour after the fight and the way his fans act to this day makes me think it would be a good rule for boxing referees to carry a mirror around in their back pockets. Then when someone starts protesting because they got vagina faced and the fight was stopped he can just hand it to them and they can STFU.
Lewis won 2 rounds throughout the course of the fight. He was getting dominated and he would have had to have won 5 out of the last 6 rounds to win the fights on the scorecards. That type of comeback literally never happens in boxing, just like cuts victories.
With the way the fight was going you're lucky I'm even giving Lewis 2 rounds or lasting the rest of the fight for that matter.
