Lewis is a very good, but not great fighter. He has benefitted from a VERY weak era of heavyweight boxers.
His only fights against a genuinely great opponent were against Holyfield. But Holyfield was also shot by that stage.
He has also been knocked out cold by two fighters who could be described as journeymen at best.
Lewis would have presented no problem for a younger Holyfield or Tyson.
That being said, Tyson simply has hardly fought at all over the past few years, and a photo of him a couple of weeks ago showed he was FAT.
He's living off his old reputation as the "baddest man on earth" presently.
Bring on April 6! |

Well, in any event there will be no fight in Nevada. The boxing commission has had enough.
And Lewis what does he have to say?
Well it seems Tyson did bite a chunk of thigh out of his leg right through the pants!

It will be interesting to see if it goes ahead. The richest fight in history, and one of the most high profile in many, many years. But in boxings own inimitable style, it is descending into a farce. Big surprise. :roll:

Tyson a loser? Hmmmm
Not physically. I think he suffers from a poor self esteem imho
