    I think that's what annoys a lot of anti Lewis types they would like to say that Lewis had no guts but that fight proved that he actually did. I also give full respect to Rachman for the first fight you can't take it way from him, he's a sad figure now though :-(
    Rahman landed a lucky shot on Lewis in their 1st fight, mainly because Lewis was clowning and got caught on the ropes. It was a hard, flush shot on the chin that would have knocked any HW out. Lewis's chin wasn't really that bad, and you certainly couldn't question the dude's heart if you watched the fight with Vitali. Plus, who the fuck has come even close to giving Vitali a beating like that since? Lewis was a great Champion, who deserves more credit than he gets.

    BTW, I was never much of a Lewis fan, when he got KTFO by Rahman, I couldn't have been more pleased, i'm just giving credit where credit is due.

    cheers
    Where dyou get that shit?

    Lewis was knackered! He had a pathetic guard up and Rahman smashed through it easily!

    As for Lewis beating him in the rematch, big fucking deal! He was supposed to do it easy the first time round! He would always be ranked lower than some think he should because such lower tier fighters were able to conclusively knock him sparko with such ease.

    Lewis never had an extended period where he was the undeniable best heavy around. There was always someone else. You had McCall who smashed him out of his first incarnation and since then, no one would ever take him seriously on an all time list. He was lucky to get a decision against Mercer who an old Holmes beat He wanted no part of Byrd, he should have lost the Holyfield rematch and then he ends his career falling on to his stool against Vitali and doesn't want to punctuate the win with a better performance

    What's shit about it? Lewis was clowning, didn't keep his left hand up, and Rahman won the fucking lottery.. I get it Ross, you aren't a fan of Lewis.

    Lewis had both hands up! Have you even seen the fight?

    Rahman forces Lewis to the ropes, Lewis puts his guard up and Rahman punches straight through it

    Nope

    Lewis got blasted with his hands up ... simple as that ... Rahman pulled back and went right through Lewis and literally put him to sleep

    Lewis is a great champion and came back to decisively beat Rahman but lets give Rahman his credit ... he was a major underdog and one shotted Lennox Lewis to put him away
