    Eh, both had their legs but they were tired and smothering each other, trying to work punches in the clinch. Vitali was the bigger man with more leverage so they were falling in that direction.

    I'm not a Klitschko fan at all, but I do not believe Lewis. The fact is, he didn't have the desire or dedication to the level that is required to put himself through another training camp.

    Lewis says at his worst, but I suspect things didn't go smoothly in training camp as I do believe age was catching up with him! It happens to everyone - there are exemptions!

    He'd have beaten Klitschko all day long, easily, at his best, but Lennox knew his heart wasn't in the game any more! The Tyson victory was the end for him & he knew it.

    Lennox is lucky he didn't face Kirk Johnson that night as was originally planned.

    He bitched out. This and not facing Tyson sooner will be forever black spots on his resume...

    Vlad retired him

    the reason he didn't give vitali a rematch is because his mummy told him not to,vitali set up a 1 on 1 meeting between him and lennox with nobody else there and who did lennox bring his mum and it was her after seeing the look in vitali's eyes said he shouldn't fight him again lol there's nothing wrong with being a mummy's boy but come on there's no need to ***** out of a fight because your mum told you to.he needsto grow a pair and stop making things up, like im scared i might hurt him lol its boxing. i respect big L but if he starts making BS up then he will be losing it.

    How some people can claim that Vitali retired Lewis is beyond me, its like saying that Archie Moore retired Marciano or Hopkins retired Calzaghe

    Lewis went out at the top & on his own terms imo

    Lewis-Vitali was a great fight, all the whining & manufactured excuses in the world wont change the result
