    Vitali hit him with everything he had in the first few rounds and couldn't take him out, the glass chinned past prime lewis who got ko'd twice in his prime by single punches from journeymans. That's how bad is vitali's punching power.

    Lewis would have stopped him, vitali was clueless on the inside, lewis was ripping him with looping telegraphed punches at will.

    When lennox lewis has no respect for your power you know you can't punch for shi.t

    How many more punches could you seriously expect Vitali to take on that cut?

    Since when does having a cut mean you're going to get knocked out in the next round?

    Because of the added pain and the difficulty when it comes to seeing.

    Lewis was dead tried. We all saw how much energy Vitali had left once he learned the fight was stopped on cuts

    Vitali wins round seven, possibly big

    Lewis never once looked close to dropping Vitali throughout the fight let alone knock him out. The only man that looked ready to go at times was Lewis.

    Watch the last 30 or so seconds of the last round.

    I guess that this thread could be added to the TKO6 thread. I doubt that anybody is saying anything new.

    Lewis threw the entire Kitchen sink at Vitali and shot his load in Round 6, his final few punches lacked sting. The way he walked back to his seat and collapsed told he had nothing left. Lucky the fight got called off.
