    Alot closer than the first fight but still a clear enough Lewis win. I can't see how any people had Holy winning.

      I thought Lewis won it 116-112.

      Holyfield made it closer than the first one but I thought Lennox showed his class in both fights.

        Well I disagree. I thought Lewis looked flatfooted and slow, he kept throwing lazy jabs and wrestling down and clinching Holyfield. It made the fight a little uenven and dull, but Holy did most of the exciting work.

          Yes ladies and gentleman,fights are indeed scored upon who looked to be the most exciting fighter.Clean effective punching,What the hell does this **** mean in a contest scored upon a round by round system?

            Well I thought he looked very good.Evander still didn't ge tto land anything big and ate combinations altough he had a more spirited effort.

            Personally I don't see how people have it anything than a Lewsi win.It was clear to me.

              7rds to 5rds Holyfield

              Lewis face told the story of this fight, he was `Busted-up`Holyfield had beaten him fair & square and so thought the vast number of ringside reporters .... But it must be remembered that Lennox Lewis was threatening to "SUE" the Nevada State Athletic Commision over the judging of his first fight with Holyfield, so all Lewis had to do to get the decision in this return fight was stay on his feet..

              Holyfield to this day claims he was Robbed

                Busted up?He didn't have anything on his face to me.He had a little swelling on his left cheekbone but if you call that busted up....fine then.
                I thought Holyfield lost the right to call robbery after the first fight.

                    You know, no offense but that comment is one of the reasons I started to doubt your judgment lately. And your expertise. Lewis had maybe three good rounds in that fight but kept getting the rounds by the old crook Lederman and other judges, to make up what happened in the first fight. It was disgraceful.

                      What?I really don't understand what you mean?

                      I don't even know how Lederman scored it nor do I care or score rounds like he does.

                      More often than not I disagree with him.
