A KO that puts a smile on everybodys face!

Honestly, that was a weak ass bunch of heavyweights too.

The 90s were probolly the second best decade for HW after the 70s.


If you look at the history of the division there is rarely much strenght in depth amoungst the big boys.

I absolutely agree. I am just saying that although everyone completely disses the current heavyweights, it seems they see the past through rose colored glasses. That was the point.

I was pissed of when that happened. Never forgiven Moorer weak ass chin since.

Lennox, Holyfield, Tyson, Bowe, Foreman, Moorer, Golota, Briggs were all fighting at a high level around this time.... Your point doesn't do much for me, if we had just one of those guys around now they would be the unified champ and the HW division wouldn't be such a joke.

Seeing Lennox Lewis go down and not get up with a single punch to his jaw/chin vs McCall and Rahman brought a smile to my face. I even got a bigger smile when he was interviewed after the fight by Larry Merchant and was asked what he thought about that KO punch and Lewis said something like as if the punch was really no big deal, not powerful at all, etc. And Larry, knowing the way he is, confronted him saying that if the punch was not that bad then he would have gotten up hahahahaha!

The clip narsman showing Jones KO Paz was the best super middle ever, including Joe Galzaghe.

For me this just shows that if you could somehow put the 70s heavys in with the 90s heavys both in their primes the 70s would massacre the 90s. I personally would have loved to have seen prime George against prime Tyson. I think that this would have been similar to the Foreman-Frazier fights with Tyson just constantly coming forward and George knocking him down. The only difference being Tyson would not have got up as many times as Frazier did if he got up at all.

Also great clip of Roy Jones Junior destroying Paz. Without doubt the greatest SMW of all time at that point.

On the rematch it was not really Lewis giving McCall a complete beating. It was bizarre, McCall simply was not fighting or throwing any punches at all. Just moving around the ring and not doing a thing, getting all emotional. Was he interviewed after the fight? I wonder what was going on.

Jones only fought Paz coz Paz was a big name at the time and very popular.

I saw that fight live and thought Foreman was well on his way to a TKO loss. Moorer was punishing a big, old, slow man who didn't deserve to be in there and rapidly was beginning to look like he shouldn't have been. I summarily dismissed Teddy Atlas' comment that Foreman was setting him up, just as Moorer did. I was half paying attention when George did a slow one-two and Michael fell like he forgot to pay the electric bill on his legs. The little spot of blood beneath his nose and the dazed look in his eyes didn't match the soft-looking punch I'd just seen. Foreman looked up as if to say, "I don't believe it, either, but I'll take it." By the count of ten I was completely suspicious- you don't go from dominating a guy like that to laying down from a graze for a count of ten. That is, I was thinking that until they started showing the KO from different angles and the straight right hand that came right before it that turned Moorer into a deer staring at headlights. No way he could have gotten up from that. No way.
