Lewis vs tyson

[Gandalf]

Boxing rec is your friend for this kind of thing. Tyson pretty much lost every round as far as I can recall. He provided Jeff Lacy with the perfect plan to tackle Calzaghe. Walk forward and eat punches without even moving your head. Poor old Tyson, he was pretty shot.

Agree with Miles. No mention on boxrec for some reason but it's fair to say Lennox probably won every round. Mike just couldn't get past that jab and was getting hit with every straight right Lennox threw.

Nah, im pretty sure I remember reading that Mike at least wan the first on all three cards but then hed shot his bolt really. Just fighting for the money, no real desire. Hadnt trained properly. If he had though and he could have kept up the pace?

Which is why id say hed win if both had fought in their primes and oddly enough I think if Lewis hadnt have accepted step asside money that Tyson did actually train at that point still and would have probably beaten lewis who was struggling with mercer then getting knocked out by Rahman.

He must have won the first, Lewis did back off but took over after Tyson had spent his load after 3 minutes, which shows you how much of a shadow of a fighter he was at that time.

I think he did win the first but funny thing about it is Tyson himself said the 1st was his downfall because he said Lennox caught him with a body shot that he was not able to recover from throughout....

Did not know that but I am sure he would have gassed out any way. He did say in the interview he was lucky he was not killed by Lewis, basically for coming into the ring not fully prepared, as he was wiping a bump on Lennox head.

This was probably the only time I felt sorry for Mike Tyson.

Tyson was truly pathetic in this fight & if Lewis wasn't so unnecessarily cautious, he could have starched Tyson inside of 3 rounds, without breaking sweat.

How Tyson managed to convince so many that he had any kind of chance in that fight is beyond me.
