Chris Byrd. I think he will fight on. Doubt he will fight Tyson again, perhaps Junior Klitschko will test him most but then again Ross Purity stopped him!



His nationality is a bit weird.

Born in England to Jamaican parents...won an olympic gold medal for Canada...but these days apparently spends the most time in Jamaica and I think considers himself jamaican mostly because his parents (mother) instilled Jamaican values and the lifestyle etc. He enters the ring to Jamaican music etc.

When interviewed in the UK, he is a Brit, in Canada he is Canadian and in Jamaica, he is cool mun! LOL

Lennox Lewis is all things to all men (and women), and that's what makes him the nice guy he is.

It was pretty funny watching the Sports Tonight report where Tyson was all of a sudden humble and begging for a rematch.

Goes to show you Tyson is not half the fighter he was during the mid to late eighties, the fuel tank hit empty in the fourth round and it was only a matter of time after that.

Credit to Iron Mike for the way he conducted himself after the fight too, I know the media love to make him out as an animal and that Boxing is nothing more than a circus but it was great to see him so respectful after the fight.

As for what next for Lewis, I'm not so sure I know a rematch with Tyson would be a waste of time(probably the most profitable for him though). Byrd would be blown away quickly, Let's hope we don'y see Holyfield-Lewis 3, I reckon probably Wlad Klitschko is the only one at the moment that could trouble Lewis, a pure boxer who doesn't make too many mistakes, he just might have enough tools to catch Lewis he certainly measures up well in the height and reach department.

Hey Smokin, did you hear about how the Mundine camp hasn't payed Obah yet? What a bunch of f'n crooks.

I was glad that Tyson got his f**king lights punched out. He is a thug. If only the same thing would happen to Anthony Mundine.

Yea, heard about that. Sooner or later they are going to stuff around the wrong person...then look out!

Briggs v Kelly is on they reckon! I hope Kelly gets KO'd cold! I think he will, if he takes the fight that is.

What a bloody circus, if they don't pay up they should be banned from promoting.

Kelly-Briggs is a fight that must happen similar to Holland-Taylor last year, I think now Glenn needs the fight to retore some credibility after his abysmal performance against RJ in February. I think Briggs would roll him failry easily too, hopefully we get some decent odds and it takes place in Melbourne.

By the way what do you know about this Branco(Tsyzu's WBC mandatory)?

Watching the Fenech fight night on friday? Theres not much to get excited about, apart from Haumono in action and the Adam-Rabah match up.

Rumour has it Briggs-Kelly will be on the Gold Coast - probably Carrara stadium.

Friday night doesnt overly excite me - I dont think much of Haumono however I reckon Adam is chance to upset Ben Rabah. I definitely hope he does.

Ive never seen Branco - His record suggests he shouldnt worry Tszyu. Then again Vince Phillips is always in the mind.

Yeah by the way Rod Waterhouse is talking on the Aussie Boxing Forum that would seem most likely, I hope its shown on Fox Sports if thats the case.

As for Haumono I don't think he will ever go any further than a Oz title, possibly a Commonwealth title if Williams gives it up and he faces a weaker champ. I like his power and aggression a bit of a question mark over his chin and heart at this stage though the same with Rabah.

Guess will just have to wait and see with Branco, I'm not keen to go if it takes place at Colonial unless I get some good seats close to the action.
