Lewis vs. Klitschko (2003)

Lewis vs. Klitschko in 2003 forms a heavyweight legend where Lennox Lewis was losing badly to a younger, bloodied Vitali Klitschko before a cut stoppage ended the fight—Klitschko demanded it continue, defying convention. At 38, Lewis survived 36 brutal minutes, proving durability against a 31-year-old challenger who outworked him by 30% in the early rounds.
