Lewis in his last fight against Klitsco. While many felt he was behind on points the cuts that ended the fight were created with punches, not head butts as favored by Holyfield. The stinging jab won out over Vitali's punishing hooks.

Many Felt? What a crock! Klitschko was clearing Lewis's clock, referee "won" the fight for Lewis. Klitschko wanted to fight. Now Lewis got scared after seeing how Klitschko erased Johnson and "retired" rather than face potential wipeout. Now the era of Klitschko's is coming. Nice to see white boxers with brains for a change, instead of ear biting jerks.

The underside of a glove caused that nasty cut, and make no doubt about it, Lewis is dodging Vitali so he can go out on top. Lewis was a great fighter, but lost his desire and would not be able to retain his belts in a rematch.
