    Fury got 22 seconds and was still on the floor when the referee waved off lewis at the 7 count.

    Seems like nobody watched the video. Yes Lewis wobbled forward but the point is that that was at the 7 count, we see in the comparisons that other referees gave other champions the full 10 count plus extra time making them walk to them then wiping the gloves. Just watch mills lane give Berbick a full 10 count even when he falls down again and again in a worse situation than Lewis was at the 7 count.

    Continue the count, he waved it at 7. At least give the 10 count. Fury was still down at 7, Berbick was falling down again by 7 yet the referees continued the full 10 count. Watch the video comparisons I posted.

    If he was off balance. Against Rahman he was bouncing g off the ropes into it and his legs actually crossed each other as the punch landed then Rahmans legs went into his. He would of ended up on the ground even without the punch landing g but it did and he had no base beneath him to brace and absorb the punch.

    Yes. It's simple human anatomy.
    No matter how tough you are, when you get hit clean in the jaw a side angle, your head rotates very rapidly, which causes the brain to whip lash in the head, thus you get a concussion and go down. So it's the movement of your skull and the effect it has on your brain, which causes you to go down. But if your jaw is tucked in, you can take hard shots and still stand.

    Yes he could have taken them. Ali was hit in the cheekbone, not in the jaw.

    The theory is hooks cause more trauma because of that whiplash,and the brain moving around more.

    He rocked Lewis, and hurt him probably more than anyone else did that did not floor Lewis.

    Briggs decided it was worthy a beating and paid the toll for it in a fight that should have been stopped.

    As I showed you before, Briggs was harder to stop once he put on weight past the age of 30.

    To the point of the thread, Lewis was stupid early twice on one punch without taking much damage before.

    He got a chance at a re-match. So how come Bruno, Mercer of Vitali, three opponents who gave Lewis a fight never got their re-matches?

    All you have showed anyone is your insane Klit bias ,"Lewis was more marked up," was what you used to say ,then it was, Lewis cut him with an illegal back hand .You're full of it ,and I don't mean brains!
    How come Vitali never rematched Byrd? How come his brother never rematched Purrity or Sanders.
    Lewis rematched McCall,Rahman,and Holyfield. Fantasy fan boy!

    Vitali didn't get a rematch because Lennox was 38 and decided he'd had enough. He'd taken on everyone. He had nothing to prove, plenty of money and his health. Why risk that when his heart was no longer in it? It wouldn't have proved anything for Vitali either, beating an ageing champ with one foot out of the ring. Vitali had his chance when he took on a fat, ageing champ and the inconclusive ending and lack of rematch probably gave him an aura that was above what his actual accomplishments merited as some bogeyman that had to be dodged.

    You're an idiot. Quote me correctly. While Klitschko was cut, Lewis was the more swollen of the two and was also cut, just not in the eye region. Watch the tape and you'll see the back hand / swipe moments before the cut appeared. I have posted the youtube video here twice.

    Lewis NEEDED the re-match vs. Rhaman and McCall to avenge two early one punch Ko's! He did not give the guys who gave him tough fights in Mercer, Mercer or Klitschko ANY Re-match. Vitali retired him. Lewis lied for months saying he'll take the re-match.

    And don't pretend you aren't a hater of accomplished white heavyweights, well all know you, Tonto62 and Ranier ( Your shameless alts ) were too.

    If you want to see Lewis glove swipe over Vitali's eye just before the cut happened, watch the below clip.
