    After the Bowe/Holyfield fight the 2nd time, Stewart football tackled Holyfield after the last round.

    Last thing you want as a trainer is an injured fighter. These are million dollar racehorses. You accept the risk during a fight, but you’re not going to let your guy get hurt after the bell, fighting for nothing, if you can help it.

    One of my favorite moments from that trilogy. Bowe and Holyfield just wouldn't quit, those fights were real personal.

    Bowe and Holyfield fighting after the bell, especially in the second fight, gave us some great moments

    They were throwing punches after the bell, Steward leapt into the ring to pull Holyfield away & they both fell over somebody climbing through the ropes.
