    Lewis, a couple of rounds earlier than Douglas did in 1990.

    It took him a couple of rounds less than Douglas 12 years later in 2002.

    You do know that he hurt his right hand in the fight don't you so it took him a couple of rounds, you adjust for this. Are you assuming he sustains the same injury in 2002.?

    I think the Lewis of 2002 would outpoint the Tyson who fought Razor Ruddock.

    Lewis is an ATG no doubt but I think he was more past it in 2002 than people realise.

    Just think, how long would a 2002 version of Tyson last against Tokyo Douglas? 3-4 rounds I give him...

    Douglas didn't have to fight Tyson AND Eddie Cotton though did he?

    Oops my bad, I forgot your a Tyson fanboy, you'll no doubt claim the KD in the 4th was NOT legitimate, and that warnings in the 5th, 6th, 7th, or for that matter whenever Tyson was hurt WERE legitimate.

    Cotton kept Tyson in that fight until the 8th. No doubt.
