    Quite often in boxing when a fighter is stopped with cuts etc or runs the champion extremely closely there are rematches. There have been numerous rematches in boxing history and imo Klit Lewis was one of those fights warranting a rematch, Lewis knew that he was in for another extremely tough fight, quite possibly a defeat and retired on top with his faculties in place.
    If he was expecting a victory (and quite easy victory as some would say) why not take an extremely lucrative rematch and retire without leaving any unfinished business?
    Why grant a rematch? Why does anybody grant a rematch?

    Lewis is top 5 period.

    For those saying he's around 10th, give me 9 fighters who have a better resume and the style of the wins Lewis has.

    Ali, Louis and ............

    I await your reply.
