I think he needs to beat a couple of contenders before his given a chance. People like pudking will claim that he was past his prime when he gets beat. Is this the best Great black hope?

Lewis should get the shot right away. That way Klitschko will be the one who beats him. If he tries against anyone else, Golota for example, he will be beaten before Klitschko gets a chance at him.

After this fight,his nick name will be Klitsch KO!lol.
I can't wait for him to knock this guy out.Lewis has
lost my respect with his dumb rantings about how Vitaliy
has no talent.He calls him a bum and says he has no
talent.We shall see who has talent when he crushes Lenox
back into retirement!

I think Vitaly is a bit "raw", but he will most likely beat Lewis' brains out. I
saw their fight in L.A., and as I wrote before, the writing was on the wall
for Lewis, who got lucky with the horrible, deep cut over Vitaly's eye.
Lewis was behind, and was being rocked, despite his remarks to the
contrary.

I still feel we are going to see a string of dominant white heavyweights
out of E. Europe the next few years - although you can bet the powers
that be will try and short circuit this. The physical strength of these
people will help them overcome the thick skulls/cranial bone density of
the black heavyweights.

NHB doesn't get the press it should because whites dominate the sport -
although as mentioned before, some contests are trying to change rules
to make it favor thick skulls, making the contests less like a real fight,
and more easily controlled by "judging".

The lastest report is that Lennox has again chickened out. I'm sure he will keep running his mouth though.

This was Lewis'quote from the London Sunday Mirror"I've had to listen to a lot of rubbish from Klitschko and he is starting to get on my nerves.I'm making a comeback later this year.The money is up to 21 million pounds(U.S.$39.3 million)right now I simply can't turn that much cash down.I'm going to start training seriously and I'm going back to England to start to sorting this out.I need the money just like everyone else and it's just too good to turn down".Shortly thereafter Lewis said this."I want to reiterate what I said when I retired in Feb.2004 that I was fortunate to leave the sport on my own terms and I will be one of the few heavyweight champions in history to retire on top and stay retired".Does this guy suffer from mood swings or what?

Let's face it, Lewis is scared. Klitschko would pound him into the mat if he fought him again. Lewis needs to retire, his dreadlocks having done their duty and are now past their prime. It's good to have a clean cut, smart champion, although Lewis showed a flash of brilliance by not wanting to fight Vitale. Thanks for the memories Lennox, now go buy an air conditioner and a heat pump!
