    It did seal the deal on his career. There were loads of "experts" picking Tyson. He hadn't lost since Holyfield. It was never viewed as a mismatch. It was the highest earning fight in history (second now to Oscar-Floyd).

    Just imagine how many threads, and how many thousands of boxing fans today, would be claiming "Tyson would have killed Lewis" had that fight not taken place?
    Fenster, anyone with any sense knew Tyson was a shell and was going to get destroyed. Stop making up stories.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Plenty of "experts" have no sense then. I'm not the one rewriting history, i'm giving the truth, my personal views are not part of it.
