oh, before I forgot... Congrats to lewis... I hated him, but after this match he has earned my respect... He is a great boxer and has learnt alot and has proven to be a brave man...

Nothing really went for Tyson, he was just 2 slow and didn't tsking any risk like his previous matches, he completly lost it in the first round.
No doubt Lewis is the greatest boxer in the world rightnow.
I'm not really interested in the rematch, looking at todays performance.
But there is one thing Tyson said which was really true and that is that he didn't get couple of fights before the big match.
In a recent interview, “Brother” Mike Tyson
said he and I will paraphrase from what I heard “worships Money, because Money is God. If you believe God will help you and money won’t, go ahead and quit your job and live out in the streets. Everyone needs money.”
Astaghfurullah.
But you see… Lewis had the height, reach, and overall credibility of being a true champ.
Tyson is not what he was 16 years ago… obviously.
But he does deserve a re-match to end it all.
But he really didn’t lose… no one did.
He’s going to get atleast 17.5 million big ones… aside from the souvenir sales and PPV sales.

I think it was all a fix.

Never mind, Tyson fans, I know you are finding it hard to accept,

OUCH!!!
I’ll go with Ali_R’s-usual/general-one-line-of-wisdom…I’m wondering if brother Salim Malik and Brother Tyson are related.
Lewis looked just too good, too tall and too professional in the ring. He used his left jab consistently and kept Tyson ‘out’. He never let him get in his body and throw upper cuts. Tyson was just not aggressive enough to keep up to his reputation. Oh well he got his pay check and I hope he can pay off his debt that Don King has got him in to.
My brother Tyson still remains an innocent animal who wants a re-match and I’m all for this guy…Go Tyson Go!!

Typical desi reply, once their player or team looses they blame it on fixing.

for all my money's worth I bet it was fixed!
those who want the match pm me
waccha gonna do
tell me
waccha gonna do when .......... runs wild on you?
Ive got the match too, made a divx copy right now, so anyone who wants it, pm me or khiska...
Lets hope Tyson comes back cuz without him the boxing world be very dull... Remember, Ali lost his first fight against Frasier and it was said that his career was over, and he came back, taking out an even dangerous opponent called Foreman and then went on to become a legend... He took out Frasier two time afterwards...
Tyson lost - fair and square. Good thing was that he didn't do anything stupid this time like biting his opponent or losing his temper.
Plus this defeat will, hopefully, make him more humble and he should cut his usual pre-match BS. He is still a good boxer, who unfortunately is past his prime. He should continue to fight second-string boxers and make some money, but I am sure he can kiss his usual $20m paychecks good bye.
This was a good match, and although Mike lost, I am sure many fans will still be rooting for him if ever there is a re-match with Lewis. Tyson, himself, said after the match that there is no way he can defeat Lewis. So for the sake of boxing, I hope either a good challenger comes through or Tyson gets some magic touch to make a match (or rematch) of it.
A lonely Lewis at the top of Heavyweight crown is such a boring thought.
What was butt kissing after the fight, if he is thinking that he will gain some respect by butt kissing to his opponenets than he is wrong, I want to see that fierce tyson who used to fight in the early 90s and demolishes his opponents, he was just too calm before the match which showed signs of him loosing.
He needs to get in shape and fight really worthy opponents like Rahman, Grant, Tua and others to get prepared for the next fight maybe next year.

Guys Tyson lost because he is no longer the force he was 15 years ago. Without the speed and movement he was easy pickings for Lewis who fought a good fight and deserves credit. However, I maintain that Lewis is NOT a great fighter, because in my book great fighters don't get knocked out by bums and that is something that Lennox will always have against him as a question mark.
It's a shame there is no real class heavyweights in their prime so we could see waht lewis is really mnade of. Tyson is finished and there should be no re-match. He gets my rspect for taking a beating till the 8th round. Something lennox has never done in his career as when he gets hit he usually never gets back up.
there is some thign called age janab

plus he was in prison just like ali and after that they where both never the same which is very sad… in fact i read a nice artical about tyson a year back on the times … very sad and moving
http://www3.pak.org/gupshup/smilies/biggrin.gif
well beasicly it said that the prison just changed him … defeated him.

Exactly my thoughts... Remember Lewis Rahman I, Lewis was laughing at Rahman just before Rahman put him down...
tyson has always been a creep his conversion to islam does not make him a better human being
Come on guys, lets leave his religious beliefs out of this... He fought a fair fight though...
One thing I remembered after watching the fight for the second time... Lewis got so many cheap shots in the early rounds (tyson won the first one) and these cheap shots did cost him a point but then again they did serious damage to Tyson, who had a lesser reach... Lewis was also hitting Tyson was the elbow frequently and was also warned by the referee for doing that... So holding and hitting the elbow were two things that lewis relied heavily on... The first time tyson fell, that was no given a knock down cuz of the fact that lewis was holding tyson and punched him on the back (which is not allowed anywayz) while he was holding him... Im disspointed by these fouls from Lewis... And I thought these British colonial fools played the game by the rules...
