Be honest, after the first round, did you think Tyson was gonna beat Lewis?

    Nope. I thought Tyson won the 1st round (it was the only round I gave him), but at no point did I think he would beat Lewis.

    I didn't even think Tyson looked that great in the 1st round. All Lewis did was land an uppercut and clinch though.

    Tyson wanted two more tune ups before the LL contest.
    I was super nervous just before the bell hit for round 1. Tyson came out swinging andv nearly landing. Tyson felt that uppercut and never recovered.

    No, I has never thought that Tyson could beat Lewis. Yes, Tyson took the first rounds but I did not have doubts that Lewis would KO him sooner or later.

    Tyson should've quit ducking Lewis and fought him in the immediate aftermath of hiss victory over Golota. That version of Tyson was at least capable of putting on a decent attack for a few rounds which might have been enough for him to catch Lennox at some point with a big bomb the way Rahman and McCall did.
