    Too right it's getting old.I'm only replying to the thread mate,and it's only one of many that prove Klittards still have PTSD nearly a decade on.

    A bit unfair to Lenny from the haters.

    If you want a non bias break down of Lennox's career here it is

    Lennox Lewis
    Undisputed Champion
    Only Modern HW to have retired with no unavenged defeats
    Beat every man he ever faced.

    Some Notable Wins
    Gary Mason- Huge under rated win for the young Lion.
    Lennox only had 15 fights and he fought a undefeated champion in
    Gary Mason. Lewis was a 15 fight novice and knocked Mason out.
    Most 15 fight prospects these days are fighting Mall Cops

    Razer Ruddock
    Took a semi prime Tyson to the deep end twice.
    Tyson said 'Ruddock punch like a mule kick'. Ruddock was the most feared
    puncher in the division and nobody outside of Tyson wanted him.
    Ruddock dominated Phil Jackson and Gary Page prior to the Lewis bout and was considered a favorite. Lennox knocked him out in 2 rounds and effectively ruined Ruddock's Career.


    Frank Bruno
    Lewis was behind on the cards, but like a true champion came back and knocked Bruno out.

    Dominated Tommy Morrison

    Forced to fight in a tiny ring against Prime Ray Mercer, and couldn't move at all, but still clearly won the fight 7-3, according to most boxing experts.
    Tough lil scrap, but Lewis prevailed.

    Andrew Golota
    Golota was the original Klitscho, strong, big, tough, and just came off
    back to back destruction beat downs of a semi prime Riddick Bowe.
    Lewis was a big under dog. Golota was the 'next big thing'. Lewis knocked Golota out in 40 seconds.

    Shannon Briggs
    Prime Briggs, Lewis slapped him around and knocked him out.
    Vitali 10 years later, couldn't knock old man river Briggs out, and went the distance.

    Holyfield-
    Dominated Holyfield. Won 10 Rounds to 2. Was robbed and the fight declared a draw.
    Beat him again, in less stellar fashion the 2nd time.
    Overall though Lewis won a total of 18/24 Rounds against Holyfield.

    Holyfield had several 'prime stretches'. Against Lewis, he wasn't in his full prime but still elite.

    Michael Grant-The next great hype. He was a 6'8 MONSTER, and HBO said he was the real deal. He was. He was big, he was strong, he was an athletic freak of nature. He carried all the hopes and futures of the American Heavyweight hope on his shoulders.
    Lennox almost broke his legs.
    George Foreman even said 'WOW, WOW LENNOX DONE BROKE HIS LEGS'

    Grant was ruined.


    David Tua- Massive Puncher, 2nd behind Tyson at the time. Surreal punching power. People said 'Tua's punches can kill you' and they could. Lewis toyed with him, winning 12-0. At the end, Lewis even made Tua hit the lamp post.


    Mike Tyson- Ok ya, Mike was beyond shot, but he still had surreal one punch KO Power. In fact, I say Mike's one punch KO Power when he was older is STRONGER then when he was younger. Nevertheless, I admit Mike was shot, but Lennox was old too.


    Vitali- Semi retired, old, fat,un motivated, and under trained Lennox Lewis lost the first 2 rounds to a Prime Vitali, but came back strong, ripped his face wide open, and had Vitali hanging on for dear life in the 6th after eating a old Lewis Upper cut (a prime Lewis would have followed that upper cut with a Roy Jones Jr like combo)

    Doctor saved Vitali's career and life, ended the fight.
    Tko6 of the '2nd best from the next era'



    Lennox had two losses.
    But realistically he had one.
    He made the count for Mc Call. The ref was corrupt, even HBO said
    the ref is corrupt. Lennox might have recovered, he might not have, but bottom line. He should have been given the chance.



    Rahman- Lewis was probably drugged.


    It don't matter. In the rematches, he made Mc Call cry and killed Rahman with beautiful 1-2 combo.

    Lennox avenged all his defeats. Like a true champion.

    I'm firm, but I'm fair idiot.

    A Klittard would have made bias poll options in favor of Klitschos.

    But I don't make bias polls. I let the people speak. Also this thread was created by a serial Lennox Hater Troll, who have created multiple threads hating on Lennox. You don't have to like a boxer, but making multiple threads to bash someone puts you on par with *****s and *******s

    I've never once seen a guy so happy for being beaten pillar to post, from opening bell to last second of the fight:think
