Im sure it was alot easier to beat Tyson while wearing headgear. You act like Lewis was undefeated or something. When did he beat Bowe? He lost to Holyfield and barely one the rematch. He lost Oliver McCall. Who in the world is Oliver McCall? Hasim Rahman? Come on. How you gonna penalize Tyson for beating guys past their prime and the applaud Lewis for doing it. You just dont like Tyson because he turned out to be a dang lunatic. If Rahman could KO Lewis Im sure Mike would have before he went to prison. If you want to talk about how bad he was after prison, hell Ill agree with you. Before he went to prison he had a hiccup against Buster Douglas that might not have been if the ref had done his job,(Buster laid on the canvas for about 14 seconds if I remember correctly) but none the less he got the W
