    Lewis uses his boxing skills and is not intimidated by Tyson. Tyson gets frustrated and by the ninth gets stopped by Lewis.

    I'd just like to say that I enjoyed reading the intelligent debate between you and lefthook31 and it's nice to see it end in mutual agreement.

    It doesn't always, but it is almost always fun (unless you find yourself talking to someone who has stubborn views and bad argument, then it's a chore).

    Lewis by TKO late

    I'm fairly sure of my pick too, although there's always a chance that Tyson gets a early to mid rounds KO, like maybe 25% or so. But chances are Tyson shoots his load early & survives until the 10th or 11th round where Lewis finds him with his right hand.

    If Lewis somehow survives an initial devastating 6 round barrage, I feel that he will be the one considerably worse for wear and would be stopped soon after.

    Yeah, Lewis wasn't exactly a fighter who got stronger later either. His KO's pretty much came in the first half of the fight, or he went the distance.

    :good
    Heres a look into the boring life of a well disciplined fighter. You know this sort of discipline ended shortly after 1988.

    Exactly, Moscow's is a terrible argument since Tyson was improving at such a dramatic rate back in the 80's. You can bet the young green Tyson that Tillman & Lewis fought was a long way off reaching his prime. Besides the second decision loss to Tillman was a controversial one.
