    If one round decides of the result (6-4 like on your card) than I believe the verdict can't be called a robbery. This fight was very close and exciting look at Chavez-Whitaker or Froch-Dirrell and you will see a robbery.

    He did give him a bit of a battering. If it weren't for the knockdowns Stewart would have been a clear winner.

    I had Stewart by a point or two. It could have been a draw or even a close D for Foreman but at this point Foreman was going to get any close decision. He was the media darling, the cash cow, and the promotional favorite.

    Lewis had an iron chin?

    George Foreman was so angry in early rounds.He knew that he wasnt trained good for this fight.In some interview later he said that he was not trained enough for Stewart and Morrison fight because he had many media promotions and run for money.

    Foreman just mentally wasn't into this fight. Oh well, even on a bad night, and not training hard enough, George won. A better shape George, and Stewart doesn't get into the third round.

    It was **** hair close, but Foreman got my nod from his knockdowns' of Stewart and the fact that he had Stewart wobbly on a couple of occasions, as well...... A great blood bath........ FOREMAN!

    Last I saw of Stewart he was getting iced by Jorge L. Gonzalez inside 2 rds...... SAD!

    Can anyone remember any other fights where someone's face swells as bad as Foreman's in this fight?

    Joe Hipp vs. Bruce Seldon. Seldon did a paint job on a very game, but over matched Hipp.
