Kind of a hollow victory for Lewis.

Lennox Lewis still had contempt for Oliver Mccall inside of the ring, when he saw that he was breaking down mentally! But i don't think it was a hallow victory, i genuinely believe Lennox Lewis's presence inside of the ring influenced Mccall's break down...(Never mind the cocaine).

What? Had a mental breakdown due to Lewis's presence? McCall was a sparring partner for Mike Tyson...I really doubt that. He wasn't mentally ready but the greed of Don King put him there anyway.
