    Have you seen the combos Lewis threw while trained by Steward? Did you see all the great 1-2`s he started to land? His punches became extremely crisp.

    Lennox Lewis on form is almost as good as Tyson Fury on form, unbeatable.

    Really good big man can shut down Holyfield who has to work inefficiently hard to close the distance.

    agreed, that 2nd fight was close. Coulda gone eitherway. If holy won a split that woulda been fine.

    No doubt, Evander was a top fighter. Had a head of granite and machine like endurance. Lennox was also among the ATGs but he had all he could handle with Hollifield. That fight could have easily ended differently. I need to go back and watch. In those days I was probably rooting for Lewis.

    I really do think the judges in the rematch over-corrected due to the first fight robbery.
