you know that on this side of the pond they are trying to build audley harrison up to fill lewis' shoes--- despite the fact that he isn't that good and either klitchko would destroy him... sigh!

Klitchko did great... I'm amazed at how well we can take a punch or even a flurry of punches... he barely even flinches, and doesn't even bother to bob and weave, mostly just taking a few then unleashing his own.

I thought the Mesi fight was quite good as well. Even though I think he may have lost if it was a 12 round fight, I always like it when the guy who wins shows good sportsmanship, so I'm glad he came away with it.

Lewis was tired, bored and out of shape and Vitaly STILL couldn't beat him.
Do you think Lewis in shape and with the attitude he had when he fought Tyson or revenged on Holyfield or Rashid, wouldn't beat Vitaly like a red headed step child ??

He has two personalities and one is a shitty boxer. I like him but Vitaly fucked him up and the cut stopage was bullshit.

I think Vitali has a chance against pretty much anyone.

Lewis at his best would probably beat him, though.

Lewis will win if they fight again.

Yes because personality A will be in charge. It is B that's a shitty boxer.

The dichotomy of Lewis is boring me now. When he first rose to prominence I was a fan, but now I'm tired.

When he was rising I was a Riddick Bowe fan. Tyson is the man though. .....was.

I'm excited about the Klits. I hope they are next Big Things.

Nothing has been better lately than Ward-Gatti.

As much as I like Lennox, and I liked him since he was here and training here, he NEEDS for someone to MAKE it a fight, to emotionally get to him, he NEEDS to feel it is a challenge.
I think, like so many big guys like him with natural talent, he thinks he can get by on size.
Heck he trimmed down for tyson and put on weight for Vitaly, he saw him as nothing.
Fact is, if Vitaly couldn't have beaten him then, out of shape, with surprise as an adavantage, The only way he CAN beat Lewis is for Lewis to beat himself.

The calls were bullshit, IMO he beat lewis in that fight, he was the better boxer that night.

The last sentence is what I'm saying and what happened.
