    He was afraid to rematch Vitali. A fight everyone wanted to see.

    He retired at the right time and neither Klitschko Brother would have beat him.
    He always arrived ready in a rematch and kicked butt.
    Wladimir would have been a first round KO.

    Lennox was afraid ??? ROFL He took Vitali on, his #1 contender at
    a few days notice, when just prepared tor a warm up he knew wasn't serious. Name me one other champ that ever did that. He nearly took his face off, no need to rematch after that

    Vitali would have battered Rahman.

    The only thing on short notice was the opponent. Thumbing then using dreads to open and worsen a cut isn't something to be proud of. Probably got the idea from Livingstone Bramble.

    Every Brit said different when it was Whyte getting knocked out cold in a fight he was winning.

    Klitschko won most of the rounds and was heading towards a comprehensive points victory when he suffered a serious shoulder injury.
