    Lewis was a work in progress and did not improve significantly until he met up with Stewart.

    Up to McCall Lewis only had a right hand behind a lazy , pawing jab. Now some one will come out and claim what about the Bruno left hook..........lol, I think even Lewis was surprised he threw it, more out of desperation than calculated action.

    McCall only claim to fame , besides being a stoner, was being Tyson's punching bag in sparring and a decent right hand landed on a so so chinned Lewis, otherwise he is B - at best.

    Due to the competitive nature both had against each other I would assume Tyson would take the fight seriously and instead waking up in whorehouse on fight night actually train but you never know with him.

    Anyways, he would punch Lewis silly over the pawing jab and would see the right coming a mile away. Mike by KO.

    The more polished, confident but very safety cautious when meeting a real threat Stewart improved Lewis is a little more tricky which probably lets to a very boring fight with lots of clinching.

    No they didn't. I've watched it about 5 times and nowhere was this mentioned or even alluded to.
