Lewis would have beaten Sanders. If the fight had continued, Vitali might be blind in that eye today. I almost wish Lewis had given Vitali a detached retina just to shut up you Klittards.
Did you know Lewis never fought a southpaw as a professional, also he himself said he hated them which is why I believe he never fought Byrd. Not saying Byrd would have won but I think he may have made Lewis look bad in the process.
Name me one southpaw Lennox Lewis beat. Just one! Oh that's right! Lewis never fought a single southpaw in his entire pro career because he ducked them all. So no, Lewis himself wasn't that confident in beating a southpaw as dangerous as Sanders. Sure! Vitali may have been blind if that fight continued. But that's his own choice. If he wanted to continue, then the referee and everyone else must respect his decision. Since it's for Vitali to decide if he is okay with his body to continue or not. Alternatively, if the fight continued, Vitali may have also broken Lennox Lewis's nose for good. But we'll never know, because the referee prematurely intervened and stopped the fight before any of those things could take place. And true boxing fans that are not a fan of either guy would've wanted the fight to continue until an indisputable conclusion was made. Just like myself. You're calling me a klittard even though I'm not a fan of him and have criticized him heavily earlier before.
Ref and docs stop fights all the time against the wishes of the boxer. They have a duty of care, which is a legal requirement within the medical profession. You couldn't be more wrong if you tried. Sorry for my intervention, I don't mean to rub salt(y) into the wound....
lets be honest, lewis wouldnt have beaten sanderrs. NOt because he couldnt! Because that 8 round southpaw clubber Sanders would never in a million years get good enough to land a title shot. Sanders shouldnt be mentioned in the same sentence as Lewis, and never was...except by K bro fans AT THE PRECISE moment when prime wlad get easily killed in seconds by retired shot sanders, and sanders instantly magically changed in their eyes from a retiredd southpaw clubber to an "atg killer". If Wlad hadnt been a crappy enough to champ to not only pick a retired nobody for a defence, but also get killed instantly by him, then no Klithscko fan would even know who he was.
And soldiers get killed in the battle field whilst getting paid far less than boxers. Based on how much boxers get paid, it's their responsibility to decide how much physical damage they are willing to endure. You're acting like I am a fan of either guy, when I'm not. So keep rubbing the salt on empty vacuum. The referee stopping the fight in favor of Lewis means Lewis couldn't beat a total scrub, trash and a stiff idiot like Vitali Klitschko by himself without the intervention of somebody else. In other words, Lewis couldn't totally incapacitate Vitali himself, to the point where Vitali couldn't continue or couldn't even say he wanted to continue. Ergo, Lewis was exposed as a limited boxer with weak punching power. It also proves Lewis couldn't indisputably win!
