    It is clear that McCall knew after Rd 3, not to throw any meaningful punches. I saw 1 worthless jab in each of rds 4, 5. And I am not saying Lewis was in on anything. (I hope not, and I don't think so.) If anything he was a gentleman and did not jump on McCall when he was turning away etc. I see Don King in the middle of the ring after the McCall KO of lewis, but I cannot comment on that here. I had a post deleted when I mentioned him.

    Remember McCall was I believe the main sparring partner for Tyson in his prime or near-prime. And McCall was literally able to KO Lewis with his eyes closed. This is not a guy the least bit afraid of Lewis.

    Something all around rotten here. Crack is a good diversion. Maybe they even tested for that then? Never heard anything official about "crack."

    And tell me when was the last time a winning trainer leaves his winning fighter and becomes the trainer for the other side for the rematch??
    so not only did mccall throw the fight......

    but now you're questioning if he was ever a crackhead too?

      How would I know if he was a crackhead then? The guy is still fighting. Clearly he hasn't gone insane or whatever you guys are alleging. He is still fighting. Apparently he also has a long term marriage with children.

      Recent drug charges aren't relevant to 1994.

      And why are you people ignoring this:
      When was the last time you heard of a winning trainer switching to the losing fighter for the rematch?

              what is lennox suppose to do?

              if you watch the video there was so many times that lennox could have hit him and he didn't.

              especially when mccall would turn his back on him or just walk away.

              lennox would hold off and wait for mccall to be facing him before punching.


              mccall went mental. none of it is lennox's fault.
              He didn't hit him because he was being cautious.. he had no idea what Mccall was doing.. Oliver was acting crazy with his ring antics.... he acted afterwards like he';d done something substantial,, watch Byrd's victory lapdance of Vitali for the magnitude of his W BUT YET we go on & on about Lennox beating every opponent he ever faced when he REALLY didn';t beaT McCALL or Klitschko for that matter... not exactly how he exacted his revenge on Rahman is it. If anything Mccall showed he could manhandle Lewis in that second rd if he chose to.... NOT buying this W!

                  real bad on you!

                  wtf is that? wtf does that even mean?


                  emmanuel steward jumps around.

                  look up who he has trained just in the heavyweight division.

                  lewis , klitschkos , moorer , holyfield.

                  those guys all fought each other too.

                    why are you making such a big deal of the trainer switch?

                    and you make it seem like the rematch was right away like it means something for your ****** conspiracy theory.

                    1st fight was in 1994. rematch was in 1997.

                    things change in 3 years.

                    trainers get hired. trainers get fired.


                    roach was with delahoya in 2007. but roach trained pacquiao against delahoya in 2008.

                    now wtf does that mean? nothing.

                      Just placed you on ignore for your total lack of honesty and crediblity.

                      My original question was clearly about a rematch, and you answered about a switch after a retirement. And now you just added more nonsense,

                      Total disingenuousness.

                      Still waiting for an honest answer:

                      [B]When was the last time you heard of a winning trainer switching to the losing fighter for the rematch?[/B] From someone else.
