If Lewis/Klitchsko was in black and white most here would call them unskilled bums

    Lewis showed a good deal of defensive skill in that fight, despite being sloppy and seemingly off-balance.
    At the same time, Vitali's confidence and youth made his offense look sharp and well timed, straight down the middle.
    Lewis' close-range/inside game delivered some serious punishment to Vitali.

    Different class, even for a scrappy shootout.

    Not sure that it needs to be in black and white. The night the fight happened, I watched it in color and was embarrassed for the both of them.
