    Walcott beat Charles twice (after losing 2 times beforehand)....and won and defended the Hvyweight crown.
    (Plus he got the privilege of meeting "Suzy Q" up close and personal, before Charles did).

    Focus, please. This is urgent. I have some ...things I need to attend to, on which I can't move forward until I know whether or not you are in fact a hollerbackgirl.

    Which made it even more important that he came out and won the rematch in such fashion.

    Crazy that it was so long ago, so long after the previous installment, and yet the franchise is still continuing today..

    Terry Norris regaining the title after being brutally ko for the full
    count by Simon Brown only 6 months earlier. This was arguably
    TN finest performance.

    That's a good point. That really did help catapult from beyond the ceiling of what people previously thought possible for him.
