    Lewis refused to fight Vitali for a record amount of money already. I hope Lewis does come out of retirement, Vitali will knock him out cold!!!!!!! Vitali has wanted this fight for years now!!!!!!!

    Old men should not step into a boxing ring.

    He said he'd return for $100 million but not necessarily against the Klitschkos.
    It's a sum of money that could never be generated (that's the point of Lewis's statement).

    I can't help but think that GBP and K2 promotions are in a frenzy trying to figure out a way to raise over 50 mil for the fight. Lewis said 100 mil, but so did May, and he was gonna take 50. I think when a fighter says 100 mil it's a psuedonym for either make me the richest single fight fighter in history or I aint even entertaining the idea.:think

    I think they may actually have a shot here.:deal

    Lennox was lazy and overconfident when he was active... I'd hate to see him try to come back now and get hurt.

    Wlad and Haye made what, £10 million each? Zero chance they could raise the £30-40 million for Lewis, let it go.

    Vitali will slump him just like he would have if they rematched when they were suppose to.

    Lies. Mommy said he can't fight Vitali and he always listens to his mama.

    how would it be the biggest fight of all times? It would not even be Lewis' biggest fight ever.

    Lewis doesnt need the money. He is one of thr very few that has now probably made more money outside of the ring than inside it.
