    it did look staged i reckon, i guesse they would have had to hold back due to potentially dangering there upcoming fight but it looks a tad staged to me

    It makes no difference to me whether it was actually staged or not.
    It's childish either way, strictly for fans of WWE.

    When was this? Build up to the rematch?

    Almost looked like they knew each other and knew neither one of them would go for anything serious.

    I remember this I thought it was awesome. But nothing beats Tyson and Lewis's encounters. Tyson said some of the funniest ****

    I doubt Lewis would be so infuriated at Rahman if that was staged. :lol:

    It is a funny one. Notice neither of them attempted to throw a punch.

    My guess is they both wanted to play it up a little bit for the cameras not thinking it would go anywhere (or really wanting it to) but then neither one could back down once it got to it so they ended up wrestling.

    :think

    two men who train every day of their lives in the art of PUNCHING... shoving each other like little girls in front on the tv cameras, and you have to asked if it's staged!?
