    You mean 20 years ago Golota was still very dopey from a lidocaine shot and then went into the ring got KO'd in the first round, died for a few seconds backstage, sued the doctor and got a million bucks.

    Some beautiful work by Lewis. We might not see a total package type heavyweight like that again in our lifetimes.

    Yeah he died for like a half a minute I think, he had to be resuscitated, it had something to do with the lidocaine, I'll have to look it up, I forgot the exact details.

    I always thought Golota would give Lewis problems for a while, cause he had quite good skills and against Bowe he had bottle too ! Golota will be remembered for low blowing Bowe and getting blown out by Lewis in 1 round. Bowe, he only had himself to blame, but hearing what happened with the Lewis fight off you, i'm inclined to disregard the win a bit for Lewis !
