I think Sheldon was taking dives, that Tyson punch didnt even touch him imo
In most cases i'd say he definitely dived against Tyson , but in Seldon's case, the breeze from one of Tyson's punches would have probably been enough to do the trick lol.. I've seen that fight recently, and yes it was a dive, but he was sparked early by Rid**** Bowe and Tye Fields, and also has inside the distance loses to McCall, Oquendo and Gerald Nobles that come to mind.. He's well into his 40's now and shouldn't be fighting, especially with a delicate chin.. He's an accident waiting to happen..
Lewis only got koed twice in his career, thats not bad for a guy with a glass chin.
it was the manner of the KOs.. against Rahman when he got poleaxed the referee could have counted to 100 and Lewis would not have beat the count, against McCall Lewis was still out of it 10 minutes later as he had to be helped down the ring steps and was still glassy eyed (i was there).. yet Rahman & McCall never in their career`s did they KO any fighter in the manner which Lewis went down, they was not "Big Punchers" so i can only put it down to Lewis having a very weak chin
I've only ever seen his fight with Ali and he showed a pretty poor chin there and combine that with all the other knockout losses on his record I'd say Richard Dunn.
Quite shocked that he even went the distance with Roy Williams,let alone beat him.
