Lewis vs. Mercer was one of the better fights in that era... probably within the top 5 best HW showdowns of that late 90's era. The late 90's, now that we look back at it, had a lot more competition at HW than it does today.

Back then we used to talk it down too... but that was a crude time when they were becoming more sophisticated and bringing more technique into the game, ala Ali, when people wanted blood.

Blame it on color TV and PPV. If I spend 50 bucks, someone better leave the ring dead!!!
