    Momentum was not in his favor after round 4.

    Good postings Thread Stealer :good

    I think it was after this fight when Lewis was asked about a rematch, he said "If we have a rematch, I'll beat up the other side of face!" :lol:

    The heavyweight champion is also known as the most dangerous man without weapons, a moniker known for ages. He is also someone the average man on the street knows who is...

    Wlad fought like a scared child against Sultan, his slapping at sultans arm and hand was awful to watch. Since getting Manny in his corner he has turned in to a defensive, terrible fighter...

    Everybody agrees it is horrible watching Ruiz hug and slug his way to wins over better fighters. Then it is even worse watching Wlad fight the same way against guys he is neck and shoulders above in pure talent..

    In that sense, with his antics against sultan , Wlad Klitsko is a disgrace as heavyweight champion!:deal

    You're serious? Those days have been over a long time ago. Any top K1 or Ultimate fighter takes boxers out.

    Should be .. but not true, man ... as well as MMA is doing these days it is still a smallish niche sport ... if you asked Americans about K1 or an 'Ultimate' fighter they would be more likely to guess it is either some kind of video game or Japanese cartoon.​

    I guess the brutal KOs of Brock Byrd Austin and forcing Brewster to quit, are all forgotten, now, huh?

    I assume as you see it, when any fighter has a lackluster performance, but still a win, they are then ****, and their great performances leading up to that last fight are all forgotten?

    How old are you, anyway? I am guessing about 13 from the sound of your childish postings.

    Vitaly is an overrated clown, who lost everytime he fought decent competition. He had a rusty, out of shape, shot, 38 yr old Lewis in front of him and he still got his ass kicked. Besides beating journeymen what has he done?

    He beat the young, in-shape, full-time fighter Corrie Sanders.

    He also beat a trim elite contender in Kirk Johnson. Remember Johnson's great performance against John Ruiz? And he was fat, but he got in shape for Vitali!

    Vitali also defeated Danny Williams, who beat a healthy Mike Tyson faster than Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield did!

    First of, english is not my first language, if I dont put sentences together grammaticaly correct, well so ****ing be it....

    Wlad has fought scared everytime he has faced someone who poses a threat to him, his fight against sultan was a disgrace, helping to put fans on to channels with MMA or K1, where you are guaranteed action.

    The heavy weight champion of the world is also the prime ticketseller for boxing, when you have a shitty heavy champ the rest of the sport suffers, pretty obvious when you look at boxing these days , which is losing ground to a lot of other sports. Not only in the states, but also here in europe...

    So Wlad and I repeat myself is a disgrace as champion..
    Ohh heavy right hand if you cant spell through my posts just jump to someone agreeing with you..

    "disgrace as champion"

    Why? He win fights easily, without been hit...thats every good boxers ideal situation. Boxing is no show, it's hard sport, and they are always danger to be injured badly.

    I thought it was Lewis who would have outlasted Vitali down the stretch. Experienced fighters have a way of going into a sort of cruise control when they're tired meaning that they can find still fight effectively despite being tired. How many times did Lewis gas out in his career?

    Another thing is that Vitali had never been in a fight prior to Lewis in which he was taking incoming fire. He was used to controlling fights and landing at will while taking very few if any clean punches. He then finds himself not only getting hit but getting hit hard and cut up by Lennox Lewis. If anyone was gonna win this fight I'm tempted to say it was Lewis. Things happened the way they happened. Everybody was left feeling incomplete once the fight was stopped. It seems that the only person who doesn't really care about it is Lewis but u know that he still thinks about it.

    Byrd didnt stop him. He pulled out with a torn rotator cuff.
