    Well, we can see who the rabid fans are. I am an obviously huge Klitschko fan who is willing to say that I don't think Lewis had a glass chin despite being destroyed twice with one punch. However, the Klitschko haters are trying to act like Vitali had a shaky chin because he was pushed/tripped by Sanders in their fight, which wasn't even a knockdown, let alone a knockout.

    If you watched that fight, and don't see Sander's foot inside of Vitali's leg when he was pushed down, then you are either...

    A. Blind.
    B. A moron.

    We all know that Vitali was shook when he first got caught by that punch, but he certainly wasn't knocked down.

    Go ahead and watch this clip.

    Bull****, I've seen it a million times - there was no leg tangle, no shove, just punches. VITLAY went down from a Sanders onslaught, simple as that. Keep spinning though, it's amusing. :deal

    Maybe so, but I obviously watch fights more objectively than you do. This **** about VITLAY never being down from punches is bull****, Sanders (the anti-Klit) knocked VITLAY down legitimately and fairly, and the referee never spotted it.

    Are you still going to pretend like you don't see Sander's right foot tripping Vitali's left... while he pushes him in the right side of his back with his right hand?

    Go ahead and deny it still.... It is funny watching how far you will go to hold onto a lie.

    What's the matter? Trying to think of another lie to cover up your previous one?

    Vitali's chin is iron and better than Lennox's but that doesn't mean Lewis had a glass chin by any means.

    The punch from Rahman was brutal & perfectly placed but the shot that McCall knocked Lewis down & out with was just well placed, not nec. a huge punch.

    Lewis was the better fighter. But Vitaly has the better chin.

    I love it how Fighting weight was running his mouth in this thread for hours... then all of the sudden I prove that he has been lying... and he disappears in seconds.

    The punch with 18 seconds to go in that round really hurt Vitlay, I can see that.

    As did one not long after.

    Was it a legit KD? Hard to say to be honest. I might have let Vitlay away with it, but there's no doubt the punches in the 10 seconds before it had something to do with it.

    Did you just say that it is "hard to say" whether or not it was a legit knockdown?:lol:

    Are you guys really that blinded by hate? Hell, Corrie Sanders doesn't even claim that he knocked Vitali down. In an interview after the fight he said that he could never get to Vitali anytime that he felt that Vitali might be in trouble, that Vitali was too good at getting in the right position and avoiding everything.

    Vitali has the better chin. Lewis's isn't really glass as the punches that knocked him out were from not necessarily weak guys who threw from downtown. I've seen him fight some hard hitters like David Tua and get whacked a couple of times and he took it ok.
