    Rogan is a definite snake. Makes out he is neutral but is part of Dana Whites inner circle. He also DKSAB.

    Vitali was dominating Lewis at the time of the stoppage? You might want to rewatch that. Vitali was fading and looked like he got shot in the face. Lewis was getting better round by round

    Call me crazy but i think an injury to your head caused by the other man's fist should be considered a legit stoppage in the sport of boxing

    First five rounds were Vitali rounds. He was leading on jabs and power punches by sizeable margins. According to compubox Vitali landed 152 punches to Lennox' 102. Lewis had maybe two more rounds before he was going out.

    Vitali won 1 & 2, he lost the 3rd, the 4th was quiet as was the 5th and the 6th was Lewis'. Compubox shouldn't be used for anything, Lewis was landing the bigger blows and doing the damage. Vitali had one moment in the 2nd with the right, he didn't land anything else really significant after that. No doubt he landed more but they were mostly arm punches.

    Remember when he sued Mike Tyson for a rematch because Mike was a money making machine. Mike was like "Dude, wtf, you won?"

    Lewis collapsed to his stool like a sack of potatoes after round 6. He was extremely exhausted. He left everything he had trying to take Vitali out from round 3 on. He wouldn't be able to finish the fight on pure exhaustion, though the stoppage on cut was legit, so he deserves the credit for injuring Vitali's face and prompting referee to stop the fight because of that injury. What I don't gey though is how Lewis' fans are trying to discredit Byrd's win over Vitali. Byrd also was losing on points, but made Vitali injure his shoulder because he missed with his punch. So, Lewis deserves credit for injuring Vitali with his offence and Byrd doesn't deserve credit for injuring him with his defense? I don't get it. Actually Byrd deserves more credit, because Vitali wanted to continue against Lewis and said "no mas" against Byrd.

    Compubox totals mean nothing. It doesn't matter who was ahead on points there were still 6 rounds up for grabs. I had vitali up 4-2 through 6 and felt like he was fadjng. Doesn't matter though because Lewis stopped him

    I don't dislike Lennox, but he's boring to listen to. Not only does he not really say anything special, he's inarticulate.

    He was a joke on FOX tonight with his commentary pro-millionnaire club.

    Tyson voluntary activated the rematch clause in the contract, limiting lewis options for other fights. He later pulled out so Lewis would be suing for loss of earnings at that point after being held in stasis waiting. In fact he sued Don king for interfering in ithe contract bybthreatening tyson. Lewis made as much money in the courtroom as he did in the ring. He even successfully sued his own lawyers for millions.

    People miss the right to vitalis temple that stiffened him and made him lurch forward and needind to hold Lewis, pushing Lewis forward to maintain balance, pushing Lewis across ring to corner where vitali could not lift his arms to defend fro Lewis uppercut or punch back. He then staggered across ring after the bell, Lewis merely had to sit down where he was standing. Vitali was out on his feet from the right to the temple.

    Got 50 minutes into the podcast. Lennox is boasting about playing chess everyday and having an 1100 ELO rating. That's class E novice level.

    **** this is frustrating. They keep getting boxing **** wrong. Danny Williams was the guy who messed up his arm and then knocked his man out with the other arm. Russell Peters thinks it was Hopkins vs Echols. Then an hour and 52 minutes in they think Teddy Atlas is training Usyk when he's really training Gvozdyk.

    By your logic does Mayweather deserve credit for injuring Pacquiao shoulder doing the right when Pacquiao was missing alot of right hooks? And don't say Pacquiao torn his right shoulder in training camp cause if that's the case? Why was he was throwing right hooks alot but miss it badly?

    Injuries like that happens. The point is I'm not giving bryd credit for injuring vitali left shoulder at all. It was just a freak accident. And besides vitali best punch is the straight right hand not a left hook.

    Tua best punch is the left hook but guess what? He didn't torn his left shoulder vs bryd.

    Collapse? In round 6 in like 10 seconds left before the bell rang? Vitali was pushing Lewis to the ropes holding on for dear life. Was Lewis tired? Yup but it's not cause of vitali. Lewis was tired cause he was soo out of shape coming in to the fight. Lewis even though was tired was the one that landed the harder shots. Vitali even though was winning 4 rounds to 2 on my card look like he was about to get tko in round 7 if the doctor didnt stop the fight.
