    Yes, because it's common practise for undisputed champions to give rematches to guys they've already owned, isn't it :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    I think he signed to fight Hasim more than once and pulled out more often than a Catholic suffering from premature ejaculation.

    Rahman is the ANTI-KLIT, by the way.

    Vitali obviously had a better chin, however I don't think that Lewis had a glass chin either.

    I disagree. Lewis hit Vitali as hard if not harder than Lewis has ever been hit himself. Vitali's chin never failed him. Sanders caught Vitali with a flush shot that he never saw coming, while he was cold in the first round too, and Vitali stayed up. Those are two of the biggest power punchers in recent years and Vitali took those punches without going down.


    I have never seen Lewis hit as hard as Vitali was by Lewis' uppercut. The punches that knocked him out were not that hard. As a matter of fact, the punch from McCall wasn't very hard at all. A very well timed punch, but not a monster punch by any means.

    However, as I already stated, I don't believe that Lewis had a glass chin either. I think that with his size, he was vulnerable to getting hit with some devastating shots from up and under time to time, like all tall fighters. However, he has held up to some big shots, so saying his chin is glass would be ignorant of me.

    As I said, he hit the deck from a Sanders onslaught, which suggests that his chin was better than WALDOS (seeing as he got up to win) and worse than Lewis's (seeing as Lewis fought the man that beat Sanders)

    He hit the deck? He was pushed in the back and tripped with Sander's leg... are you really going to lie, or have you only saw a couple pictures?:lol:

    Thanks for that, you've just confirmed what everyone on this board already knows - you've never boxed in your life, and you talk **** on monumental levels.

    Pushed in the back??? Interesting, seeing as VITLAYS back was against the ropes when he went down :huh

    Take a look at the legs of both fighters at the time of the knock down too - tripped? **** no, he went down because he was on rubber legs.

    This was the push that put Vitali down... Look at Sanders right hand. Vitali was also tripping over Sanders' leg. It is clear for any honest person to see when watching the fight. Which is why it was never ruled a knockdown in the first place.

    You never studied physics, obvously :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    So Sanders is going to get enough leverage from that position to push a 6 foot 8 inches, 250lb man down??

    All I'll say is if he did push the man down then he was already on rubber legs, as I previously stated. I've watched the fight several time and there was NO TRIP. Look for yourself, their legs weren't tangled at all when VITLAY went down. It was a legitimate knock-down and the ref did VITLAY a favour.
