There’s No Split Decision of Opinions on This Fight

Using the apparent “new math” applied by the judges who scored Lennox Lewis’ complete domination of Evander Holyfield a draw, I’ve come to some startling conclusions:

The Padres swept the Yankees in the World Series last year, Bill Clinton was found guilty in his impeachment trial and Dewey did defeat Truman.

I didn’t pay for the Holyfield-Lewis fight, but I did turn on the pay-per-view channel and watched the fight in its scrambled format with only the sound . . . the same way two of the judges, obviously, watched it.

The only question is, how deep is this scam? Clearly, the judges were paid off. But did Lewis refrain from knocking Holyfield into submission so that the crooked decision could be made by the fixed judges and not by the honest referee?

Holyfield won the fight, if you consider how many times he punched Lewis in the glove with his face.

How come they don’t go another round to break the tie?

As Americans, we all owe Lennox Lewis an apology. This foreigner came to our country and proved without a reasonable doubt that he was a better fighter, and then was ripped off blind. Come to think of it, we were all ripped off. We bought into another one of Don King’s schemes.
