    Lewis TKO 6 Vitali Klitschko.. That's really about as simple as it needs to be for me.

    although there is if a 250lb man repeatedly punches it right.

    A man that never gassed before in five rounds, according to you.

    Let's take this as true, for the sake of argument.

    Why do you think that is? :think

    The link is not accurate
    strictly speaking any part of the glove can make contact without any penalisation, although slapping will be reprimanded .
    What the rule actually states is," only the knuckle part of the glove counts as a scoring punch".


    Lewis beat every man that beat him.
    Vitali did not rematch Byrd did he?

    What are your thoughts on Vitali trying to kick Lewis when they were both on the floor, was that legal? :hey
    You'd have no issues with Lewis if he was white !:deal
    You and your vanilla idols KlanMan.:lol:

    Your antipathy towards white heavies is noted by many here. :deal

    The rules say you can't use laces, or backhands, as Lewis clearly did.

    Watch the link. You'll see Lewis clearly foul with eh backhand slash. It's undeniable, even by your standards.:hi:

    Lewis caused the fall. Watch it in slow motion and you see he pushed down on Vitaly, possibly to test his knee. He then flopped down on top of him and takes too long to get up, which is why Vitali kicked at him. It didn't land, but if he wanted to kick Lewis, he could. Remember the guy was an x heavyweight amateur and pro kickboxing champion.

    Lewis beat every man he fought because he got re-matches. Vitali never got a chance to avenge his two losses, which look MUCH better than Lennox's one punch KO losses, nor did he drop belts to avoid the likes of Ruiz and Byrd.:deal

    its immaterial, you were wrong. he didn't gass in his career in 5 rounds because hes conditioned enough for a full fight.

    no ones holding their breath for you to admit it. with luck maybe your pal Mendozy

    why? because hes telling you the truth that one guy, Vitali, lost? LOL



    lewis surely beat them because he beat them, not because there were rematches.

    Bruno (you edited but I reply) did better than vitali but he was stopped in 7 - really didn't deserve a rematch.




    Vits never got the chance because he didn't let himself face byrd. could have fought him anytime.

    Your grammar and spelling make me vomit. :barf Seriously, did you go to school? I love the way that you mix past and present tenses, as well. :thumbsup

    ...

    Now that I have washed my eyes out with bleach, let's address the core of the matter at hand. Namely, whether a fighter conditioned to go the distance for a given fight, is automatically in shape for future fights.

    Your argument rests on the assumption that past conditioning is a guarantor of current conditioning. Obviously this assumption is wrong, since it is a well known fact that the conditioning of boxers fluctuates from fight to fight.

    Do you disagree with this?

    One step at a time.

    Frankly, Mendoza, I suspect McVey would support Vits if you said that you supported Lewis ;)

    Yeah, it's a shame that he never rematched Lewis. But given the way the fight went initially, I think it's fairly obvious that he was the superior boxer at that stage of their respective careers. I would much rather have seen prime Lewis against prime Vitali. Vits was nearly prime, but Lewis was a way off his best. IMHO of course.

    Instead, we have 34521145 TKO6 threads :lol:

    Yeah I don't like white boxers ,that's why my favourite is Jack Dempsey you ret*rd. Yup Lewis was terrified of Ruiz and Byrd,remind me again who he fought instead?:patsch


    Klan Man you're a vanilla joke.:lol:

    I quite like the Klits ,I like the dignified way they carry themselves outside the ring ,and the fact that they were always in shape.
    I don't like the way they forced everyone to sign their lives way to K2 for rematches with opponents of their choosing should either of them lose.
    I don't like the fact that Wlad sh*ts himself when he is under pressure and cynically leans all over his opponents.
    I don't like the fact that Vitali quit in a fight he was winning against a feather fisted dwarfed Byrd.


    And I don't like Mendoza because he is an illiterate, bigoted,cowardly ,lying, bet welsher. And if that gets me banned it was f*cking worth it!:hi:

    Not really no. It is more likely to close than pop out. That said I will take the doctor who stopped the fight's word over anyone else's. He claimed Vitali had to lift his head to actually see him, ( As far as I know the good doctor is NOT over 6' 7" tall ) meaning if he had to do that there was no way he could defend himself against punches.

    Geddit?

    i'm not disputing that, no need to repeat it my friend.


    but I think a 250lb could certainly pop your eye out of he was able to hit it repeatedly without you being able to see the punches coming/defend,

    its well known that despite the evidence that Lewis was conditioned enough for EVERY past DEFENCE, and likely every fight on his resume, you want to prove he wasn't conditioned in JUST ONE FIGHT OUT OF 44 simply because in THAT ONE fight, his opponent was a klitshcko.

    Its not a special case just cos Klitschko was in the ring - Vits performed worse than many of lennoxs opposition, vits was about on par with Tommy Morrison for the unknown IBC title who got stopped by tko6 too (though that was a prime lennox so arguably HIV tommyboy did better than prime vits).
