Strange Fights.

Those two fights were extremely strange. The first one, Lewis completely dominated in my opinion. He won at least 9 out of the 12 rounds. He was distancing himself with the jab well, and setting up power shots. I had no idea how judge Eugenia Williams scored the bout 115-113 in favor of Holyfield. That was was a complete whackjob.

In the rematch, holy fought a better fight although Lewis brought the same gameplan and executed it better. I had him winning the majority of the rounds in the rematch and proved he was just too much for Holyfield at that point.

Just because Holyfield actually won a few rounds doesn't mean he won the fight. It wasn't even close.

I scored the 3rd, 6th, 7th and 12th rounds for Holyfield giving lewis a 116 - 112 win! The 9th round was close but Lewis won the fight no doubt!

the judges werent scoring the 2nd fight based on what was happening in the ring, they were making up for the first fight, i just watched it the other day, lewis was rocked by holyfield a few times in the 2nd matchup, but lewis landed and threw more so i say he won a close one. the scorecards were rediculous though, the judges scored the first 4 rounds for lewis, holy was killing lennox with jabs to the stomach and chest, and lewis took rounds off. lewis 7 rounds to 5, def not a blowout

Holyfield only won one of the firt 4 frames. He was being outjabbed allot. In fact, Holyfield`s break through in that fight was the wicked headbutt he smcked Lewis with in the 5th round. It bothered Lewis allot and threw him off a little, this gave Holy the chance to get into the fight and he took that chance!

look at the stats, lewis did not out jab holfield by much, lewis landed 2 times as many jabs in the first fight, in the 2nd fight holy had a better percentage and was right behind in jabs landed, try again
