    Holyfield looked drained in the 1st meeting i don't know what was wrong with him because he trains very hard normally but his well known work rate wasn't there at all. And Holyfield was there for the taking really and truthfully Lewis could of stopped Holyfield on at least 2 occasions but he let Holyfield off the hook.

    It was akin to "Hitting the wall " you know?He looked almost similiar just previous with Vaughn Bean....Bean Imo was an ugly style guy and hard to watch "clingy" but Holyfield just carried it over Into HUGE unification fight.He was Looking Off with his crazy prediction that he would KO Lewis in the 3rdRespect To Lewis who took it to him and fought a superior gameplan,I thought He had broken Holyfield in half in the 5th....almost lifted him off the canvas .In kind though I had him definatly winning the rematch but what goes around......comes around?

    The funny thing is the round Holyfield predicted that he would beat Lewis in, he actually did hurt Lewis and did a lot of fighting in that round, but other than that he was dominated from technical point of view.
