      Everyone picking Whitaker Chavez have never seen Lewis-Holyfield I or are just haters of 1-Chavez 2- Lewis.


      Whitaker Chavez was a controversial decision
      Lewis Holyfield was a straight out robbery. It was also 100% corruption.
      FBI Investigated that fight.

      Round Five was the big one.



      Judges scored it for 'HOlyfield'

      despite 99.9% of Press Row scoring it for Lewis.

      Unless you are blind.. that round was LENNOX'S.

      Lewis won 10 of 12 rounds and beat the shyt out of Holyfield for stretches.

      This fight effected Lennox's life and career. He deserved that win and he worked damn hard for it.

      Don King ***ing scum bag ***ing ****** cheating lennox like that.
      I know he was behind that shyt. I hate him. Lewis should have won that fight.

      Don King is a corrupt devil. He is Satan. He always looking to hurt Lennox.

        I'd go with this. There were a few more close rounds in Whitaker/Chavez, that tend to be largely forgotten now. Not many, but more than Lewis/Holy.

          "I feel sorry for myself. I've taken so much stick. But I feel even more sorry for Lennox." - British judge Larry O'Connell (who scored the fight 115-115)

          That guy is corrupt. He was in Don King's pocket. as was the other 2.

          This is well known fact in any inside boxing circles. My uncle worked the camps of numerous boxers doing security and he told me many stories about the corruption that Don King threw Lennox's way. It was scary stuff.

          Lennox Lewis had many many incidents documented and non documented in which he had to go through hardships other boxers can only have nightmares about.


          The worst part is that Evander Or EVANS Holyfield actually had the audacity to say it was a draw and not a robbery at all.

              Lennox clearly won the fight, 9-3 or 8-4 at worst.

              Although second fight was closer, maybe could have been a draw. (but I would give Lennox both fights clearly).

                chris byrd bs fres oquendo was another really bad one...

                obviously not the same magnitute of fight but still for a piece of the HW crown. oquendo won hands down & it wasn't really that close if you ask me but i know sometimes byrd pittypat slaps score him points but i believe one judge had it 9-3 byrd...i thinnk it was george foreman who said on air that byrd should be a man & admit defeat...lol!
