    Lewis still has the style that could beat Vitali. Not many will beat Vitali.

    Lewis Is Too Old And Too Rusty To Take This Fight, Damaging Your Legacy Is Worth No Amount Of Money To Lewis

    Lewis Wont Take This Fight

    He looks like he has a bit of chubb on him now, he's out of shape, too old and too rusty. What plaudits could you give Vitali for beating that Lewis?

    It would take him six months to get into shape realistically - why bother?

    He has his money, his family and most importantly a fully functioning brain due to getting out at the right time - make sure it stays that way.

    There's more chance of seeing Wad v Vitali IMO!

    King should be ashamed of himself. But then again King has never had shame.

    I will valiantly offer to fight Vitali for half what Don King is giving Lewis. The fight will have to be catchweight and I will need 4 month training.

    Nah seriously I think after 4 months I could do better than Sam Peter. I am still getting over a knee injury so I would not be able to run away fast enough at the moment. My plan will be to run for 11 rounds then go full on in the 12th, no trying to block his punches just pure running away.

    Didn't Don King watch the Klitschko fight? Lewis has already joined Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Evander and Mike in the mystical realm of the 'Heavyweight Champions' already. You can't fight a Jedi ghost.

    Lennox looked a bit porky too. They should let this whole thing go and let Vitali get on with sorting out the rest of the heavyweights. Lewis will either be too old and show it or come out and beat Vitali, neither covers him glory and a loss would undermine any claims of greatness the big Ukranian may aspire to.

    Lewis needs this fight like a hole in the head.

    Lewis had a prime window of oppurtunity for a rematch with Vitali in the months that followed their rematch.

    Vitali wanted the rematch - in fact in the ring after their fight - he punched Lewis in the arm aggresively and demanded a rematch - it took Lewis's bodyguards to step in and try to put Vitali in his place with a explosive clash of egos between these big men in suits who think they are cheese and Vitali the heavyweight warrior.

    Even if Lewis had let a full 12 months past and had a rest - the rematch with Vitali was still there.

    But cowardly or wisely - whichever way you want to look at it - Lewis opted to retire and not step back in that ring with Vitali.

    I dont think Lewis will take the bait - he got plenty of money anyway.

    Vitali reckons Lennox Lewis is the physically strongest boxer in the history of the entire sport.
