    No it wasn't. Rahman hurt Lewis before the big punch.

    Lewis's problem may have been that he was not trained properly. He's lucky he got the rematch.


    Is Lewis a top 10: I always thought so. And I'm glad others see it as well.

        My opinions are never wrong, just like yours.

        I don't like using IMO.

              It's only lucky if it came out of nowhere, but Rahman set up his punch after he dazed Lewis moments before.

              Rahman started to control the flow

                Top 5. Apart of me feels that a Lennox Lewis on his best day is such a force, and good all rounder, intelligent, an immensely skilled modern athlete that it's difficult to actually class other ATG's as flat out and all round 'better'. It's difficult to accurately judge though, and there'd probably be more than one match with each of those guys and a possible avenge.

                Lewis is definitely in top 15 heavies all time. A great champion.
