Does anyone think Lewis-Holyfield 1,was anything but a Lewis win???
The most controversal fight in recent times coz the whole world was watching.
I was just woundering if anyone agreed with the judges or had Holyfield winning. ::**

I'm pretty certain the great man Britkid scored it for Holyfield.
Don't ask me :-\

Lewis won easy he stood him on his head only thing Lewis did wrong was he did'nt go for the stoppage

Nah Britkid just said that he could se how somebody would've given Holyfield a draw, coz neither did enough to win the rounds
I have Holyfield 3 rounds ;)

Yes, it was a sign that Holyfield was running on fumes, and a lacklustre win for Lennox. No doubt he won most of the rounds, but it was hardly a great performance considering Holy appeared to have very little on that night, Lennox could have probably even stopped him imo.. but no doubt it was a major screw job.

I thought Evander won the fight by a few rounds. Lewis was a bit too cautious in that fight. Evander was taking the chances and driving the majority of the action . Hell I think this is the match ? I get first match and the rematch confused.. I had Evander winning one of them and Lewis winning the other !

Compubox numbers:
Landed-Thrown-%

Holyfield: 130 - 385 - 33%
It was a robbery. I had Lewis winning 10 rounds.

I always get that confused ! LOL.. I just remember I had Lewis winning clearly one of the matches, and Evander clearly winning the other ! just never been able to remember which fight was what. LMFAO ! Thanks for clarifying that :coolclick: for your assistance
Re: Does anyone think Lewis-Holyfield 1,was anything but a Lewis win???
havent seen the first or second fight for a long time but i can remember thinkin that lewis did more than enough to earn a decision in the first fight. but i can also remember thinkin that it looked to me that the real deal maybe deserved to get at least a draw in the second fight.

No, I googled it but I could only find the stats for the first fight.
I was just thinking.... How weird of a year was 1999 when it came to judges' scorecards??
DLH-Quartey
Lewis-Holyfield I
DLH-Trinidad
Vargas-Wright
Those were probably the 4 biggest fights of the year, and lots of people would argue that all 4 were bad decisions. Yikes.

Sometimes I see compubox numbers and just think WTF, now I'm not saying that Lewis shouldn't have gotten the first fight but I definitely don't remember him landing 348 punches. But then again according to Compubox didn't Gatti land like 48 punches against PBF, the numbers are always inflated.
