    Ok, not really, but I had to have a double-take:

    Somehow, his style seems far less haphazard as a southpaw, mainly because a low lead-right looks less sloppy than a low lead-left.

    The combo he hit Botha with to end the fight was one of the best Ive ever seen Lewis throw.

    yeah it's weird because you can tell it's flipped just they way he is shaped up to hi opponent. pretty strange though

    I love watching Botha try to dance like a '60s Ali against Lewis. :lol::lol:

    This is Lewis at his best. Patient,fighting smart and waiting for an opening to present itself. Great combo then to finish Botha .
