    Lennox won both fight clearly. That "draw" verdict in the first fight was atrocious A Don King special

    Lewis won it, it was closer than the first fight. Holyfield was doing good jabbing Lewis in the chest I believe in the middle rounds, but he didn't keep it up for some reason.

    I don't remember exactly how I scored those fights. All I recall is the "great" Lewis fought an over-the-hill, much smaller Holyfield and couldn't stop him.

    you from the UK? Lewis looked lethergic in the 2nd fight and Holyfield was the aggressor. It is puzzlimg to me how one can call that a clear Lewis win

    Actually I was born & raised in the UK but that didn't affect my scoring the fights . The first fight was a real debacle . When the draw verdict was announced even the Vander fans were booing. The second was closerbut I still think Lennox won clearly. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on it Take Care

    Because he hadn't neither stamina nor work rate at 37 to keep doing it

    Both fights were boring and have no rewatchability.
    Lewis took no risks against a faded slap hitting Vander.
