Lewis - Holyfield 2 who really won that fight

then watch the punch stats Holyfield landed 8
Lewis landed 3 .... everything else is corrupted and biased.

 

I'm talking about first round now, Holy not jabbed he thrown a lot of body punches and landed more at the chin than Lewis ... Lewis was the only one who jabbed that round.

 

My rounds:

Holyfield: 1,3,7,12
Lewis: 2, 8 ,11

The rest was semi even with the nod going to:
Holyfield: 4,6
Lewis: 5,9,10

So I had a draw. Personally the fight looked like Holy was much fresher
and active out there, and it looked like he was the only one who tried
to win. Lewis was in survival mode almost all the time. For me Holy won
by his will.

Holy had more clear moments in 4 and 12 but they were both close rounds
... the whole fight was close with maybe 3 rounds clearly going to Holy, and
two clearly to Lewis. Lewis was mostly jabbing and jabbing while Holy was
trying to get inside which was somehow successful that I'm referring to
survival mode for Lewis.

You may say Holy was not busy enough but if you call that then
you should name Lewis' performance to be extremely passive.

I have scored it 7-5 to Lewis every time I have scored this fight. This was not a great Lewis performance he abandoned his jab and looked for the big punch in too many rounds. When Lewis worked the jab, Holyfield could do nothing with him and it looked like the first fight.

 

THE NITE OF THE FIGHT I WATCHED THE BOB SHERIDAN VERSION AND I THOUGHT HOLY WON/ THEN I WATCHED HBO VERSION AND I THOUGHT LEWIS WON....THEN I WATCHED IT WITHOUT SOUND AND I HATE TOO ADMIT IT LENNOX LEWIS WON 116 TO 113:smoke

 

Lewis lost both fights, and he lost to an old cruiserweight.
