    Yeah but Wlad would have been KO'd pretty soon if they hadn't called it off

    Correct. Lewis was 'helped' to his feet after a count of ten.

    Not denying that, just saying the TKO was just for Wlad's safety.

    I'm a Lewis fan, but his face was priceless when he got KO'd by Rahman. Wlad literally was shocked out of his boots when Sanders stopped him.

    Sanders is the kind of man that can upset champions but lose to Nate Tubb.

    Sanders was much more unpredictable than Rahman but Rahman more consistent.
    I think they were equally "good" or "bad" or "ok"


    I loved Lewis his comment after Rahman 2 that he said Hasim Rahman should change his name to Hasbeen Rahman

    It was a "bad" stoppage, and a "robbery".
    Sure Lewis was leaning on the referee not being able to stop walking forward but Mccall wasn't the best finisher and the champ "deserves" to get the benefit of the doubt.

    Depending how you look on things, it could be an embarrassing loss, or a robbery.

    The fact an overweight Rahman KO'ed Sanders in 7 rounds, pretty much confirms Rahman was the better fighter.

    Agree with Rico... The McCall KO was hands down more humiliating.

    Corrupt referee. Lennox's legs had gone a bit but he was up and who knows how the remainder of the round would have unfolded. He might have got brutally stopped, he might have ran and shelled the entire round or clinched and got his legs back in the next ten seconds.

    Bad bad call.

    He had Rahman hurt a few times. Good fight.
