He is British.

Born in UK, London.
At the age of 12 he moved with his family to Kitchenet Ontario, Canada. Returned to England in 1989,
became the British Heavyweight, Commonwealth and European Champion and in 1992, in only two rounds and in front of a full house at London's Earl's Court, Lennox sensationally knocked out Razor Ruddock who was widely recognised as the most dangerous heavyweight in the world ratings after Mike Tyson.

In January 1993 he was crowned WBC Heavyweight Champion of the World and became the first British Heavyweight World Champion this Century!

edit: spelling
 
i hope Lewis beats the crap out of Tyson.

Tyson is such a bitch, that's why he gets all the jokes such as the one from Conan "Tyson was very angry at (some boxing decision) and he called Lewis a coward, when the reporter informed Tyson that Lewis had nothing to do with the verdict, Tyson raped the man"
or the one from Leno "Tyson's new year's resolution is that he will give up consentual sex"

lol, go Lewis 🙂
 
Lennox Lewis has to be jumped on early. He has too good of form for Tyson to beat in a long drawn out match. I just don't think Tyson has the old snap of his younger days and doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning. Tyson will go for a DQ.
 
Laying all the bad reputation aside, Tyson is still a bad dude.

He is capable of KO ing Lewis but ya never know who has paid him off.

I would love to see a clean fight but that is doubtful with Tyson.

Okay, here's how I see it.
The post-prison Tyson still has good speed and power, but he lost his head movement, he doesn't bend at the hips when he walks in or goes to the body (which is how he has always fought). This makes him very "hittable" on the way in.

well....
SOMETHING or things must have happened in prison so that he can't BEND at the hips anymore...

😉

but i hope this is a good fight with minimal referee intervention
 
One of my friends saw an interview with Tyson where he said to the reporter something like: "I wish your children were here so I could kill them, or stomp on their testicles so you could feel the kind of pain I'm in right now."

Messed up.

With Mills Lane stopping the fight after Tyson's second bite, the
following question remains unanswered:
Just how many bites does it take to get to the tootsie-roll center of Evander Holyfield?

Tyson doesn't get it. He was supposed to get a taste of VICTORY
in this fight, not a taste of the victor.

Good news! Don King has just announced that Mike Tyson will be ready to
fight again, as soon as he gets the okay from his dentist.

Evander Holyfield proved that he was sincere in his Christian

offer him thy other also. (Matt 5:39)

I understand that Mike Tyson used to be a world ranked prize fighter.
Now, he's just a two bit boxer.

Mike Tyson was disqualified because of a lobe blow.

Yes, Mike, we know. We all saw you snap on TV. Like a turtle.

I heard that Holyfield was trying to sue Tyson for trying to bite off his
ears, but the judge wouldn't give him a hearing.

That's what Evander Holyfield deserves for taunting Mike Tyson:

"Hey Mike, you tough guy! C'mon, you want a piece of me?"
 
Hmmm

Lewis is a 2-1 favorite



Interesting difference in their game plans he-he


<<"When he tries to come in and body punch, he's not going to get past my jab," Lewis said of Tyson's inside strategy. "If he does get by the jabs, then he'll run into uppercuts and then in to my big right hand."

Tyson offered a far less detailed perspective.

"I'm just ready to get it on, crush this guy's skull," Tyson said. >>





That Mikey sure knows how to turn a phrase.
