    Vitali improved much after this fight, anyone who watched his fights can see that. Lewis caught him pre-prime technique-wise. As for exposure, you have it backward, Vitali was outboxing Lewis, 4-2 on all THREE cards and had him tired. He also gave Lewis a black and had him cut on the nose.

    If you watch the film closely Lewis landed an illegal back had swipe over the eye that was cut just before we saw blood, and there was also a meeting of the heads before we saw the blood. We did not see the blood immediately after that punch landed. Hmmmm....

    Lewis himself now thinks Vitali was the best he fought. His mouth said rematch, his brain knew better.

    No fool, I'm trying to educate you. Wlad was NOT past it at age 38. If you think he was, I suggest you watch his fight with Pulev.

    why did he magically massively improve after JUST THAT FIGHT, and not any other in his entire career? JUst the one fight where he fought someone really good, thus getting his azz kicke?

    ahaha, you cant even see the obviousness of what you are writing.

    pulev? thats proof of being good, smashing out a guy who had to wait for 40something tony thompson to gass before he could beat him?

    Pulev is terrible.

    good thing he had lewis a tiny cut on the nose, considering Vitalis face was hanging off. That vits knows how to give it back in equal share.

    let me know how closely. 16 years of closely?

    someone he stopped inside halftime whilst in worst shape ever, is not the best he fought, which is why hes never said this.
    BUT YOU said it for sure. Wonder why.

    I do not see that Vitali improved technique wise. He still had the same trainer. Vitali's technique was never great, he was Always kind of an arm puncher. Vitali had other strengths than punching technique.

    It is well documented on film that the cut was the result of a Lewis overhand right. I am surprised that you did not agree with the the offical ruling on that

    Then you have not watched him. Post Lewis, he improved a lot and found his rhythm. Better the jab, and counter.

    I did not see blood after that punch, but I did see an illegal backhand glove swipe over the eye that was soon to be cut and a meeting of the heads in a clinch. Then the blood came.

    A right hand punch delivered correctly, Larry Merchant calls it as such immediately.
    An ill conditioned Lennox ,who hadn't fought in a year,an old past prime Lennox won, get over it FFS!
    This thread has been an epic failure for the OP!lol
