    Both on their game, who wins?

    I think it's a tough fight stylistically for Lewis early on. But I see him adapting like he did in the fight they had, difference is that Lennox would probably finish the job without needing the cut eye to do so. He either gets Vitali out of there late or wins a clear UD.

    I think Lewis wins a decision or a late stoppage, but Vitali always gives him hell.

    Prime Lewis was a whole different animal than the fat old, ill prepared lewis Vitaly fought. Good little scrap, but Lewis wins by ko in the middle rounds

    The EXACT same thing occurring in 2003 happens in this match-up. Lewis TKO in 6 on cuts.
