    Andrew Golota. The look in Golota's eyes, he looked like he'd just seen God.

    The Grant ko was brutal considering how overrated was this glass-chinned fighter.

    I was going to say that. It’s almost cartoonish.

    The one where he knocked someone down with a bolo punch, ugh I can’t remember the fight.

    Agreed. Lewis was smiling the moment before Rhaman put him down for the count, then argued with Larry Merchant.

    Lewis KO of Ruddock.

    Due to it being earlier in his career, I remembered how stunning it was when it happened. His later KO's were more expected.

    No love for the Briggs kayo? At one point he has his hands by his sides and swats Shannon with a left hook. It looks like an arm punch but you can't dispute the effect. Some pretty combinations in this fight which redeemed Briggs in many eyes after the loss to Wilson. He irrefutably proved his courage against Vitali. But he got Lewis' attention and that was his undoing. For a few years, if Lennox was focussed and on song he could do whatever he wanted in there. Some of Briggs' big shots turned Lennox's focus on and gave us a great fight.

    I also like the left hook knockdown v Morrison and the big left that undid Big Frank. For someone whose right hand gets so much praise, Lewis had a good, if not compact, left hook in his arsenal.
