    The evidence relating to zenek’s state of mind is mounting…




    But we already knew he was a Freak because he thinks that Lennox Lewis vs. Vitali Klitschko – Lewis W TKO6 actually means that Vitali won and that this makes him an ATG (above Lewis). :rofl

    Seen fighters looking similar when they lost in the 6th by TKO.

    You're the Freak that thinks Lewis didn't deserve to win the fight.

    Is it only Klitschko fans that have never seen a stoppage loss on cuts before?

    If what Vitali says is the truth, then the reason Lewis didn't do the rematch was becuase his mum chose not to allow him to, presumably worrying for Lennox's safety.
    (Although personally i'd pick Lewis to win, while taking less punishment than he did in in their fight, becuase for a rematch he'd be properly prepared.)

    Lennox Lewis came in the heaviest of his career and he was rusty and 39 years old and fight the fight on a two week notice. But, guess what he sliced up and beat up V. KLITS ASS.

    zenek

    It is obvious that your man-crush for Vitali outweighs your IQ.

    You are extremely biased and irrational when it comes to Vitali Klitschko. Some of the comments you have made about him (and Lennox Lewis, respectively) have been beyond ridiculous.

    At first, it was mildly amusing and now it's just plain dull, not even remotely funny anymore. There is no sensible discussion to be had with you on this matter and so it is clear that you should be ignored when it comes to any comments you make on the topic, in future.

    However, for what it's worth, Lennox Lewis vs. Vitali Klitschko = Lewis W TKO6 :hi:

    I've seen fighters with similar injuries continue and go on to win.

    He could have beat Byrd in a rematch? He didn't though did he?

    Now **** off and take your pills and dont get too hysterical when your girlfriend pops out one of my little ****-babies!

    Lennox Lewis = ATG, who beat other ATG's and every other opponent he ever faced.
    Vitali Klitschko = Also-Ran, who beats other Also-Rans but, to Lewis, was just another a victim of the Lewis superiority, even when he appeared to be ripe for the taking by any half-decent heavyweight.

    Lewis is as much North American as the Klitschko's are German.
