    Evander Holyfield vs Francis Botha

    At least it was a "super" fight in the mind of MR BILL. He's been screaming for a rematch ever since it aired.

    Lennox The Lion Lewis Lewis KO8 Tyson is teh best example.

    Lewis was 2 years past-prime, Tyson was 5 years past-prime.

    TYson came out looking at least 90% of his Best/Peak in teh 1st Round - BUT Lewis Lewis easily tuck even that round by Pounding him at teh end with monster-haymakers. For round 2-8 Lennox Bullied And Beat-up Tyson in every round [cruely carryin'/ Torturing Tyson with huge-haymakers in teh face to punish him for when he threatened to eat his kidz - Lennox could have quickley KO'd him early if he felt like it....], Making teh Superfight into what teh announcer cleverly named a "Technical Mis-match" And in Round 8 - Lennox knocked Tyson out-cold for 10 with one-big-haymaker - 'Destroying teh Myth of Tyson once and for all' as teh v.good espn-documentry Lewis:Beyond teh Glory said.
    V.Great win for Lennox.
