Damn! I figured Lewis would win, but I thought for sure Tyson would tough it out and it would go to the cards.
Didn't get to see the fight, so I can't wait to check Sports Center for the highlights. |

Chalk one up for the good guys! Tyson is finished for good, he'll be lucky if he can get a fight at the local boys club from now on. You can't behave like an ape and expect to wear the crown of an undisputed heavywieght champ.

SWEET!! Thanks for the play-by-play oneshot1kill. As crazy as he is, I predict Tyson will be in prison within 10 years, or maybe found dead. Either way I'm OK with it!

I've seen it all now! I just watched a post fight interview with Tyson, and I've never seen a more gracious or complementary loser. He praised Lewis, and admitted he took a butt kicking by the better man. WTF??
