Evander Holyfield Vs Lennox Lewis
Lennox Lewis, heavy in stature and weighing down with extra weight, almost dumpy, with only an extended reach going in his favour, it is a wonder he ever made it into the ring in the first place. Lacking in tactical skills' and co-ordination of stepping-punches', ' Drab ' , could almost define this new improved boxer of the 21st century.
Evander Holyfield on the other hand, light in weight, muscular in size, with good stepping-co-ordination, and very excellent tactical play inside the ring, it is clearly evident that such a boxer, trained under the infamous Mohammad ali.
From the off-set, Lennox Lewis was displaying tiredness of standing, finding it difficult to hold-up his bulk, being slow on the stepping mark, using only his reach as an attacking mechanism, with a strong-supportive belt driven up to his breast, it was clear he studied his opponent before hand, preparing his body to take Evander Holyfields', good use of lower body cuts', with ease. Thus putting himself at an unfair advantage of a subtle cheat.
It was clear to the naked-eye, that Evander Holyfield was and is, the undisputed champion of the world, and that the judges' clearly throw the fight in favour a newer talent, that would ultimately bring in the bucks'.
It was withdoubt that the judges' failed to point score fairly, having seen the whole fight from beginning to end, I was left utterly dismayed at the over-all outcome of the fight.
It was evident that Evander was up on points' with his defence and tactical play against Lennox. Lennox only scoring on basic bout punches' to Evanders' face, with a strong arm and powerful reach, the over-all picture of his upper arm strength, dominated the actual events' that took place in the ring.
Going back to the fight, on the replay's of this world championship, the eitors' fail to show the coverage of Lennox bowing his head, knowingly defeated by points' and tactical play, he was surprised when the judges' voted in his favour. On hearing that he was the undisputed champion of the world, he was utterly lifted with pride and shock.
It was undoubtedly a throw by the judges', depicting the fight, from beginning to end, I could clearly see, that Evander Hollyfield' was in fact, by tactical play and co-ordinated stepping defence, without a shadow of a doubt, the un-disputed heavy weight champion of the world.
I dont see why they had to throw the fight, Lennox would have had his success', one day or another, after working hard for it of course. It was a quick door through to high-rise success and fame, being the new kid on the block, the buck (or pound) took the day.
