    Please watch round 5 and 6 both rounds scored for lewis on the official score cards.
    He was landing the right hands when and where he wanted.
    anyone who thinks that vitali would have survived the 9th round after 3 more vicious beating rounds. Cannot see past Vitali's nuts.
    True they are big and he deserves respect but on Lennox lewis's 3rd worst night (the other 2 he got knockout) Vitali couldn't get the job done End of story.

    sorry to tell you but the only greats on that list are Tyson and Holyfield, Holyfield was past his best and Tyson hadn't been near himself for at least 6 years. Grant, crackhead Tucker, you're really trying to pass those off?

    At the end of round 3 lewis was landing more than vitali and there was only on cut.
    By round 5 there was 3 cuts and he was taking the fight to Vitali.
    This fight will be talked about for decades Vitali is Lucky to be a part of the grestest heavyweight fight of that decade (2000-2010).
    Since 2003 everyone is afaid to take the fight to Vitali.
    That fight was the epitame of what an old champ does when a young hungry fighter gets cut. Work it baby Work the cut.
    This fight established why we Like Lennox Lewis he could fight a War and Win

    You just dissed your own man. lol
    Vitali is on that list yet you readily admitt he is not a great heavyweight and the only great heavyweights on that list are "Tyson and Holyfield, Holyfield was past his best and Tyson hadn't been near himself for at least 6 years"

    Dumbass:hi:

    This fight was made on 2 weeks notice. How was he supposed to add six pounds on purpose as a tactic?

    Vitali's Corner also had Gatti's Cut man and Gatti survived 3 wars cut to ribbons so donot blame the cutman blame Vitali's weak skin

    This!!

    And that is why Vitali will never be consider a real ATG. :yep

    Lewis walked right through all of Vitali's best punches. Vitali hit Lewis but couldn't hurt him. Lewis's punches on the other hand, hurt Vitali badly.
    Had Lewis been motivated and in shape; Lewis by KO rd 4
