Vitali vs Lennox

Man, there are like a gazillion threads on this already.

 

Lennox TKO 6 Vitali

 

once again, suzie with the win

 

It's because Vitali won the event.

Lampley told me so.

 

oh lampley, i love your commentary and gift for wild and inaccurate exaggeration

 

Nobody disputes the stoppage. The fuss is that Lennox didn't rematch him.

At the end of the day.....the better fighter won. A lot of GREAT HW's won fights when they were behind on the cards, Lewis can be added to that list but for some reason the Klitschko lovers elevate their man to ridiculous levels because he was ahead on the cards. It's a fight, and fights aren't won on paper. Lewis grabbed glass VITLAY by the throat and forced him to fight, and VITLAY came up short because he wasn't tough enough.

Marciano was behind on the cards in a few fights before he won, and so was Ali. For some reason this fight seems to keep generating threads, why? I'll tell you why, because for once the ageing champ ****ed up the promising contender, thus destroying the next 10 years of the belt, that's why :yep

 

Funny if you listen to some people on here Vitaly wasnt even in that fight and was getting destroyed... It was a really good fight and who know how it would of went without the cut.

 

Also on that note how peeople claim lennox was fat and out of shape :huh sure doesnt look it here.

 

I just said in another thread that the scorecard for me was 3-3 not 4-2 in favor of Vitali. Lewis won and if the fight continued, Vitali would have hit the canvas and possibly lost an eye.

One thing that is true though is that Vitali retired Lewis in this fight.

 

He wasn't a fat lard-ass like say, Kirk Johnson against Vitali or Buster Douglas against Holyfield.

He wasn't in very good shape though. Vitali said afterwards he knew Lewis wasn't in good shape and tried to take advantage of his lack of conditioning.
