    Good fight, brutal cut.

    I remember some people saying "it was a bad stoppage, he just had a small nick near his eye"

    Look at all these little TKO6 trolls. Lol!

    "Bu.. Bu.. But TKO6 doe! Deal Wit It Doe!"

    Talking about "Past Prime Lewis doe!" When his prior fights against Tyson and Rahman were arguably his career best performances. Lol!

    "Bu.. Bu.. But Lennox fought Vitali on two weeks notice doe!" Uhhh Vitali also fought Lewis on two weeks notice.

    RIR37 FOREVER ;) :thumbsup: Who retired like a ***** even though the whole world wanted a rematch including his coach Manny Steward?? Exactly ;) Lewis felt and saw what he was up against in there. Didn't want No Mo Doe.

    TKO6 was one of the best wins ever. He was past prime according to consensus. Tyson is not his best win, that was a money fight. Past prime Lewis, after another gruelling fight against one of the best ever in Vitali, was right to retire as far as I'm concerned. Lewis has a stacked HW resume and you should just give him props and move on. Anything else is just not a good look man.

    Lewis got chased into a premature retirement. Vitaly probably took well over 10 million in future earnings from him not to mention his manhood.

    I would like to get chased into retirement like that - beating your last opponent's face into a Halloween mask then riding off into the sunset to marry Miss Jamaica, enjoy tens of millions and travel the world being waited and feted at every step.

    Jeez retirement sucks.

    Get fired from HBO for being terrible commentator and being in a sham marriage to hide your homosexuality and knowing deep down you got chased out of a sport prematurely by a man you got an establishment gift over and could have never beat in a rematch.

    Bet Lewis wishes he had that extra money he could have earned boxing if not for being run off by Vitaly.

    Regarding your petulent "Halloween mask" comments: Even with those head and glove laces cuts, it was Lewis' mug that was far more representative of something fit for Halloween or a circus side show.

    Lol!! Yeah Ol' Lennox 'Lets Just Retire' Lewis didn't leave that fight unmarked himself ;) Here he is admitting to Eubank at 0:04 where that noticeable scar on his face came from :)

    Irony is a VitClitter crying salty tears for fourteen years and using the word "petulent" (sic).

    All hail Lennox, the Lord, the Larger Than Life Legend of TKO6 and still able to reduce VitClitters to tears after all these years.

    I hate using the word luck, but Lewis did luck out in that fight IMO, not stating it as a fact but an opinion. That being said Lewis looked out of shape and was quite old. I think Vitali would have beat him without the cut.
