    The exact opposite happened. I am from the region where Tyson trained the story is that Lennox gave Tyson problems.

    Who cares, it was back when they were kids. It means nothing really.

    I could see it going either way, but I'd bet on Tyson via KO in the mid rounds.

    If Lewis managed it well enough, he'd get UD or a late KO on accumulation.

    Ok, so that means we saw Tysons prime against Smith? If the answer is yes, my pick is Lewis UD/Late ko. If Tyson couldn't ko a 19-5 fighter like Smith then Lewis UDs him.

    See what I did there?:good

    Prime Tyson got schooled and KOed by Buster Douglas, enough said.

    I like that way of looking at it. That how i would see it to . On their day either man could get the win but i would favour Lewis on more days so to speak.

    Lewis let Tyson inside and he couldn't do a thing. His punch just bounced off Lewis' chin.

    Tyson sometimes took several punches to KO anorexic fighters and guys who belonged at middleweight.

    Lewis always fancied the job against Tyson, he always wanted the fight. Tyson didn't - he paid him 3 million in step-aside money and only stepped into a ring with Lewis as a last resort to get a pay-day. So what does that tell you?

    If Mr. Scarface Rachman and cry baby McCall were able to put Lewis in la la land imagine what a hungry, animalistic prime Tyson would do to him. He'd eat his heart and **** him 'til he loved him .... in the ring of course.

    When Frank Bruno was asked this question he said Tyson by KO every time.

    I guess out of all the people he must be one of the best qualified to answer this question seeing as he was in the ring with both.

    Not really since Brunos opinion is based on a prime Tyson and a green pre Manny Lewis.

    Fact is Bruno has no idea what a prime Lewis was about
