    And I personally have never disputed the result, but this is the match that would sell, because the first one was hard fought, and, to some of Vitali's fans, controversial, because they maintain that the cut did not happen by a punch.

    Lennox is too wise to come back now. He is a wealthy healthy happily married man with a great family.. Yeah Ive seen all sorts of claims, It was his dreadlocks, head butts, thumb etc

    Right. We aren't in any disagreement. I end where I started: Vitali is the only match that would sell. No one is going to be interested in seeing him steamroll Tyson, Holy, or Bowe.

    I am not saying he would come back, I am not saying that he should. I am not saying that there was anything wrong with his win over Vitali. I am not saying that I think Vitali would beat him this time out. I am a bigger Lewis fan than I am Klitschko, and would like to see Lexxox stay retired.

    I am just saying that if he is making noise about coming back, there is one fight that would sell.

    To those saying that he is grossly out of shape and couldn’t whip himself back into good enough shape to do an exhibition, I don’t see how you think that an ATG with his competitive mentality couldn’t buckle down and get fighting for one last time. Heck, look at recent vids on his IG and you’ll see that he keeps himself in decent shape and could probably shed enough weight and get sharp enough for an exhibition within 6 months or so.

    How can it be at TD for Vitali when the cut was caused by a punch?

    Grazing illegal punch which Lewis got away with multiple times in the fight. Dirty boxing masterclass by Lewis.

    I don’t understand, what is an illegal grazing punch?

    Tyson should give Lewis a rematch, right after Lewis gives Vitali a rematch.

    Lewis is a bad style match up for an old Tyson. It was the case in 2002 and will be the case now
