    If we took your brain (assuming you have one??) and placed it in a gnat's behind, it would resemble an acorn in the grand canyon....Now talk some sense or go to your room and let the grownups talk!

    Lewis was shored up by Steward, but not fully. Still a work in progress. Not at his peak. Tough fight, and Id give Lewis the slight edge.

    His profile clearly states that he lives in South New Jersey, not Philadelphia.

    Agreed. If fighters like McCall or Rahman could take Lewis out early, a '96 Tyson should be able to do so in even more brutal fashion.:yep

    King was never gonna let Tyson fight Lewis. It was take the money and got no fight, or take no money and still get no fight. Why do you think Tyson dropped the WBC belt afterwards?
