I got the full clip now, but they didn't show the "bring your mother and your sister down here" bit. I love Rahman's schoolboy response to that. "I'll talk about your mother, your sister and your father."
Anyway, it's pretty poor quality, even after I've cleaned up the clip. Anyone want it?
As for the fight, I think Rahman has the momentum. After all, he's the one that pushes first, and so he's only got to push Lewis's off balance (after initial push) weight down... it would be harder for Lewis to push UP.
What I loved about Lewis-Rahman II was the scared look on the ref's face when he saw what was in Lewis's eyes.
i want it, pm pls
their both really big, strong men but rahman seems to have more overall physical strength. he bulled lennox back, rahman probably would have won
Thats because lewis had smooth leather soled shoes on and his feet were slipping on the shiny studio floor, in the first round of the rematch there is a clinch where lewis pushes rahman way back with ease, its not so noticeable on the HBO transmission but on the SKY box office transmission you got some different camera angles and I noticed it there.
I don't recall Rahman looking scared at all. I remember Lewis being the one who looked terrified as Rahman shoved him back onto that table which of course flattened under the 500+ lbs of humanity.
Rahman would destroy Lewis out of the ring with no gloves. He has much more experience in that area.
Thats the beginning of the fight though when they go through the table, but afterwards lewis chased rahman around the whole set for few minutes, lewis was going wild and shouting, kicking and pushing people out the way to get at rahman who was hiding behind some people and looking scared. Lewis was pointing at rahman and shouting, he totally lost it, i think he definatly scared rahman, remember how nervous rahman looked when he walked to the ring in the rematch and i think thats why lewis`s composed ring performance in the rematch was so good. I only saw the full tape when they showed it as part of Tysons defence at the hearing after tysons press conference fight with lewis.

Lewis said that rahman was able to push him like that because his smooth leather soled shoes were slipping on the floor, you saw in the rematch lewis push rahman back easily in a clinch.
If you watch the full tape though , once lewis gets up he goes right after rahman but people get in between them, lewis chased him round the whole set and was shouting and really angry, rahman looked as if he was shitting himself by then.
i havent seen full clip yet, anyone got it?
Rahman had the upper hand in that studio. He had Lewis on top of that desk I think and Lennox was off balance, had it gone on I don't think Lewis was gonna walk away with a W.
