lennox ain't coming back. lennox already beat vitaly. he'd lose now though because he's mad rusty, not because vitaly was ever superior to lewis.

Lewis turned down big money for rematch years ago
clearly he was not confident of winning
a real shame, im sure everybody would have liked to see fightLast edited by TheManchine; 10-16-2008, 12:02 PM.

If George Foreman could be competitive at a world level 2 months before his 48th birthday (a fight most thought he won against a young, 227 lb Briggs,) then anything is possible. Power is the last thing to go and LL had it in spades. Would I recommend it? Hell no. Nothing left to prove for Lennox, but that is a boatload of cash.

A rematch now would be a bit of a freak show exhibition and Vitali would probably win.

I will submit my theory now that alot of guys have put in their two cents. I think Vitali would have won the first fight had the cut not happened. Lennox was still sharp and active in that fight and did not look faded, he was just up against a great fighter who is awkward and hard to hit in combination. Based on that fight and fights since, I believe Lewis would not survive a fight with Vitali in an immediate rematch or if it were to happen now. Just a poor style conflict for Lennox, as he was for Tyson.Last edited by Chase8400; 10-16-2008, 01:20 PM.
