    Vote. Discuss.

    NOT A TKO6 thread.

    These two fights have been unanimously rated as the best HW fights in this era. Which one do you prefer?

    The final stand of a great career.

    Lewis TKO6.

    Briggs/Lia was more of a contenders fight whereas Lewis v Vitali was pretty much top tier.

    Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis

    Punches Landed

    Vitali 156

    Lewis 102

    Vitali got robbed. The corrupt doctor and ref were on Lennox's payroll. It should've been a TD6 win for Vitali.

    Official Scorecards

    Pat Russell: Vitali 58-56

    James Jen-Kin: Vitali 58-56

    Tom Kaczmarek: Vitali 58-56

    Sky Sports: Vitali 58-56

    HBO: Vitali 58-56

    Lennox's mom: Vitali 58-56

    George Foreman: "Lewis got lucky, Vitali was winning the fight, there has to be a rematch!"

    Jim Lampley: "A lucky escape for Lewis who was clearly losing the fight"

    Larry Merchant: "Lennox, why do you think the fans were cheering Vitali and booing you in the end? Because maybe they were surprised that Vitali fought better than you?"

    Lewis was battered from pillar to post, badly hurt several times, outboxed, outskilled, outgunned, outmuscled, outslugged, outlanded in every round, outpointed, outclassed, dominated, emasculated and retired by Vitali.

    Deal with it

    Jesus does every thread regarding the Lewis/Vitali fight have to turn into a TKO6 thread?

    Of course it does and 9 times out of 10 it's down too/ because of dicks like you.

    As for the question in the thread I voted Liakovich v Brewster, Montero summed it up perfectly in his first post.

    Must admit after this fight I expected a lot more from the white wolf.
