    From what I remember, Lewis was so anxious to get a rematch kinda like when Rahman beat Lewis the 1st time which Lewis had to go to court to force Rahman to fight. Mccall, with the help of Don King did all he can to avoid Lewis to prolong his lucky 15 mins fame. Lewis worked his way up to the rankings to fight Mccall.

    Mccall knew it was coming. He knows he got lucky the first time and that lightning doesn't strike on the same spot twice. He tried to clown in the ring in the hope that Lewis gets clumsy. Lewis stuck to his game plan, so Mccall proceeded with plan B and that was to play psycho and cry. :|

    I think above pretty much summarizes what happened.

    Yeah that's basically it. When McCall won it King had the opportunity to freeze Lewis out of the picture and milk McCall's championshop, which he did as McCall fought Holmes and then Bruno.

    Bull****. McCall should have never be allowed to get in the ring on that night, he had such a big drug problem, even laymen could see it, better informate yourself first before posting such a ****...

    McCall is a warrior, he always fights, he isn´t a clowning idiot...

    :lol: I was calling it as it is.

    Mccall was ok for the 1st 2 rounds until he was convinced he couldn't win. And that is when he decided to clown.
