That knot on Rahman's head was the biggest knot I've ever seen, seems to me it got as big as a baseball.......
Two of the judges scored it 69-64 in favor of Holyfield, the woman judge scored it 67-66 in favor of Rahman. Personally, I didn't think Holyfield dominanted Rahman. He had short spurts where he threw a lot of punches, but Rahman was the busier of the two throughout. If anything, Holyfield should've won 4 rounds to 3, but 6 rounds to 1???? I don't think so. Either way though, Lewis shouldn't feel threatened by what he saw tonight because the heavyweight division is done.
I think Lennox's next fight, assuming he beats Tyson, will be called Alien 5 as he battles whatever monster erupts from that hellish hemotoma on Rahman's head! Holyfield fought well but I can't get excited about Lewis-Holyfield III. Rahman fought well also ...but not well enough to win. Champions find a way to prevail. Rahman's got to find a way to win big fights where he's not underestimated. Otherwise, in 5 years he'll be on Celebrity Boxing with Oliver McCall as the battle of the one fight wonders.
