    I saw the living off a win thread and someone mentiooned that a living off a defeat thread would be interesting so I thought why not start one

    Wayne McCollough is the patron saint of 'living off a defeat', but there must be others

    Over to you guys !

    Vitali is a cracking shout to be honest. Stopped legimately by a 245 year old out of shape Lewis but still wining about it. Half his face had fallen off and Lewis wasn't headbutting him

    Klitschko is the obvious one, some butters think he's an ATG and would beat a prime Mike Tyson :-(

    How the hell is Vitali living off that defeat to Lewis?

    Lennox Lewis wasn't at his best but that was his own fault. Vitali led on the cards and won the event before being stopped on cuts. Since then Vitali hasn't even lost a round!

    Vitali would have beaten any version of Tyson. He was just far too big for him.
