Tyrone's Own- where was Lewis when Tyson and Holyfield were in their prime, you ask? Being ducked that's where he was. Bowe (beat Holyfield twice) refused to fight him and for years fighters used Lewis' subsequent loss to McCall as an excuse for not fighting him. You question Lewis' motives for retiring? What other credible challengers were there out there? He'd beaten the better of the Klitschkos, even if it was only on cuts. He wouldn't have cut any less easily in a rematch. Rahman again? As good a boxer as James Toney is, he's still a blown up Super Middlewieght who earned a credible draw with Rahman. Jones? Jones didn't really want it, and subsequent fights have shown that the Ruiz fight was by far and away the peak of his career. The only way from there was down, and Ruiz vs. Lewis would have been laughable
Never mind Duran vs. Leonard, watch Duran vs. Barkley for pure guts and will to survive.
I resent beign called a West Belfast man!
