Whjo else think he retired because he didn't want to fight Vitali Klitschko again? I mean if they didn't stop the match because of Klitschko's eye he would of had a good chance of beating him, and why couldn't Lewis fight one more match?? what you think?

Definitely a move out of fear. He wanted to retire as the Champ and he had to do so before Klitschko could fight him again.

i kno nothing about boxing. sounds like a wimp to me though. rocky never backed down (lol) but he was a good fighter. saw like 20 seconds of a fight w/ him once. how old was he?

39 I think. He was on Jim Rome today. What does he have to prove? I think he's smart to get out and not hang on way past his time.

He has a lot to prove... he wants to be known as one of the best yet won't fight the guy who kicked his *** and would have won if not for a serious cut above his eye? Never liked Lennox and definitely never will after this wimp move!

you gotta give him the fact he was getting much older

He may be a wimp, but he's smart to quit while he's on top and also while he's still healthy. I don't think he's one of the 10 best, but if he stays out he's smart!
