    I think the Atomic bull easily could have walked it out untill the final round.

    the guy had an iron chin and probably would have been knocked out at all.

    McCall didn't even realize he was in a fight.

    not getting KO'ed does not stop you from getting brain damage.

    yeah good point left. the point isn't that he could have carried on, he had zero defence that night.

    Funny thing about that fight was the Lewis was terrified of the Atomic Bull even though he wasn't doing anything. If the Bull even flinched slightly, Lewis would cover up immediately and step back. It was sad to watch that event.

    boxing politics they drugged McCall so Lennox can regain tittle and we have big money fights!

    McCall had Lewis number!

    Honestly mate I do not think Lewis was ever favored by boxing politics, he was always the outsider until near the end of his career.

    He could not stand up straight, I don't blame the ref for stopping it.

    Edit:Thought you meant the first fight. The second needed stopping because McCall was just eating shots while having a ****ing breakdown.
