Ah-Ha! Go Lewis, beat that animal Mike Tyson, 8th round knockout! Is anyone else as utterly thrilled as I am?? 😃

Lewis won! YAY! If only I was as ballsy as I used to be, I could have won some money. (I was watching the fight in a house full of Tyson fans.)

Lewis had Tyson’s number that whole bout. Then again, that was clearly not the Mike Tyson of old. Where were the punches? He came out with a flurry in the first round, but after that, Tyson seemed to stop caring.

Lennox Lewis - HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!

When is HBO re-airing the fight? I missed it, but I’m dancin’ a gig with joy over the outcome. I love to see a bully get the shit kicked outta him! Woo HOO!

Actually, I wasn’t on Sunday night. I think it was changed.

Not slinging mud, just clarifying.

The thread title was Lennox Lewis Wins! I changed it to Tyson-Lennox (spoiler) after **handy** ’s post.

Sorry, **handy**.

Hmmm . . . that should be Tyson-Lewis, huh? I’ll correct it.

DAMN good result. Though I did cringe when Lewis was banging on at the press conference about the “British” football team (and the Golden Jubilee!).

I was amazed, aside of the 10 million or whatever he got payday, I actually felt bad for Tyson. This should pretty much wrap up his career IMO.
