Saw the Lewis vs Tyson fight last night. I will say it was pretty much a disappointment. Everyone was just waiting for Tyson to land that one big punch to end the fight, but it never happened. As the fight went on it was easy to see Tyson was losing it. I knew that if he didn't win in the first 3 rounds, it was all over, and it pretty much was. With that said, Tyson took a lot of abuse, so you really can't doubt his toughness.
In a lot of ways this fight reminded me of The Rock vs Hulk Hogan at this past Wrestlemania. While it's probably an unfair comparison since wrestling is a work, it had a similar theme in that a previously unstoppable force from the past has come back to challenge the current hot fighter. The old-timer gets lots of cheers, everyone wants to see him win, but as the fight goes on it's obvious he isn't what he used to be. Well that and they both get paid a shitload to come back from the dead and fight.
