      Sorry Mike,i couldn't resist it. Did you mean the "loss" thing-or have you already done the "Holyfield vs Lewis rematch" thread?

        It was very close but I had lewis winning by a point or 2. It could have been called a draw and I would not have been outraged. The thing is that the first fight was such a blatant travesty of justice that i was glad that lewis got the benifit of the doubt.

          Yes, I think Holyfield squeeked by in the second for a decision. There's been a big trend lately in boxing about all the bad decisions. I think alot of it has been horse-****. When fights go the distance there's going to be a difference of opinions, simple as that. I think the outcry for Lewis-Holyfield I having an investigation into the decision was nothing more than absolute bull****. If that was a bad decision, it wouldn't rank in my top 500 bad decisions i've seen. Same as this Oscar Delahoya getting ripped off in his Moseley fights: you don't have afight that close with no fighter ever(and i underline ever) being in danger of being close to going down, deserve to be considered a controversial fight.
          Bottom line: If you can't knock the ****er out, then you don't deserve to ***** about no damn bad decision.

              In my opinion, Lewis took both fights - first one by 8-10 points, second one by 2 or 3. First one was an outrage, second one was fair, but you could've called it a draw without blushing.

                Second fight was closer but make no mistake Lewis won clean. I had Lewis 116-112.

                    Holyfield clearly lost the first fight. They should have rightfully given that fight to Lewis.

                    In an attempt to undo the conspiracy surrounding the first fight, The judges gave the second fight to Lewis on a silver platter. The fact that Lewis didn't earn a win in the second fight cleanly, just adds a little tarnish to his career, as did the first fight to Holyfield's career.
