I agree totally on the magnitude of the victory. I think that Rahman can beat Holyfield or Ruiz, actually, to unify the title, such that the outcome of their battle in China will be - on the grand scale - for naught. But, I have to tell ya...I think Tyson can take him out. I think Tyson will, in fact, take him out. LPS5

Concur. Not taking anything away from him. However, I do believe that the sports media was correct about Lewis not being in shape for this fight - ala Tyson/Douglas. One of the biggest differences was your point about a one shot bomb that literally "dropped" Lewis. It took a couple more punches to dethrone Tyson. Yes, maybe this will be on a future ESPN Max Kellerman outstanding KO series. I know LP thinks this could lead to a single HW champ, but I am doubtful we will see it. Too much money and no real control over the match making, except by the big stockholders. Just imagine. A single HW champ. The thread would dry up. <gg>
