Going under the assumption that the cut somehow gets closed up and it isn't stopped because of that... Vitali late (T)KO or wide UD
Given that Lewis was ****in vitali up with some nice uppercuts that had him leaning on lennox like the great towwer of pisa, i say LEWIS KO. but more likely a rally to win by points to the 12th. let's face it KKKbro fans... lewis was coming back with a vengeance .
Vitali was not clearly winning in my eyes, and if the fight goes to round 7, by round 8......Vitali is blinded, bludgeoned, and probably never fights again.
I just know that Wlad is not in Lennox's class, and that ole Lennox damn near blinded Vitali who I like and respect.
V. Klit eye was literally almost ripped out. If that fight had went another 2 rounds that eye would have popped out and I'm serious.
Lewis TKO'd him, thats boxing let it go. IF the fight continued then you are assuming they decided not to stop it in the 6th due to the cut, but regardless the fight would have been stopped due to the cut after anyway so still TKO Lewis. Or are we assuming the cut magically healed?
The cut came from a legit punch, there was nothing unlucky about it. TKO win for Lewis. If there had not have been that cut and had the fight gone the distance, then Vitali most probably would have won on points. It was a fierce fight though and both of them were also tired and throwing big bombs. It could have been a KO victory for either of them. Great fight that I watch now and then again (compare that to Wlad vs Haye, which I doubt I´ll never watch again).
After seeing Vitali just eat a couple of massive shots, including an uppercut that should have taken his head off, I don't think he can be KOd. The man's a robot.
But a cut is lucky. People have taken huge beatings and received no cuts at all. There's no secret formula for getting cuts. Look at Shannon Briggs face after the VK fight, he didn't get cuts. He just had broken bones. Vitali said he felt fine with the cuts and was shocked it was stopped. People act like the cut was seriously going to end his career. It was not. And how was Klitschko not winning? He was winning the match by 4-2 on all the scorecards, and almost knocked Lewis out. VK didn't even come close to being knocked out. He was stunned but Lewis had no chance of putting him out because he was too tired and was smashed up too. VK wins at the end if it's continued. By the 8th round Lewis will literally be stumbling and catch a right hand that would absolutely floor him.
Well, so far Vitali is shitting all over Lewis in the poll by 2 to 1. But 80% of the posts are for of Lennox. Clearly 20% of the Klitschko hating members do most of the posting!:hi:
How is it TKO? I wish the victory could change to "cuts". There's a difference between simply cutting a guy out of luck and beating a guy to a pulp in the middle of the fight where the ref has to stop it. And in the end, Lewis dodged Vitali again. People say it's a smart move, but people know the truth. Lewis does too. VK would have won and he was lucky to get out of there and retire. Even when the payday was huge.
