The only reason fight didnt end in round 2 was because Lewis had waited so long for this fight he wanted to savour the moment and spend more time in the ring with Tyson. He was basically toying with Tyson from round 3.

I saw a video where Stacey Mckinley a member of Tyson's training team said that he did not want Tyson taking this fight because he wasn't ready and not in good enough shape, but he was overruled because there was so much money involved and i suppose because they were both getting older. But Mckinley was right, Tyson was never really in this fight

OK - Tyson was past his prime. But it's worth remembering that Holyfield and the public still had him as the favourite. Lewis was brilliant here - he completely nullified Mike's attempts to get inside. It's almost painful to watch Tyson's complete humiliation.

Mike wasn't mentally ready for this fight he would have got paid more for trash talking then doing the work you always have to keep your old family around
Tyson was good because of his agility and speed and combinations, without those attributes he's just an undersized heavyweight although still physically gifted. So basicly he lost those attributes quickly as he got older...
Tyson looked out of it the whole fight.

he was done after round 1. If tyson couldnt knock his opponents out in the first few rounds he always looked lethargic and disinterested and discouraged for the rest of the fight, even in his wins that went thr distance. I used to think due to the fact he got inside on lewis so easily in this fight and just didnt work when he did, a prime tyson would easily beat lewis, but tbh tyson was never a good inside fighter, and probably prime tyson vs lewis is just as likely to go the way of buster douglas and tyson. but could go either way, i just dont have much faith in tyson's heart even in his prime
Really Lewis was a afraid of Tyson.

Tysons prime was 2 or 3yrs. That wasn't Lewis's fault. Tyson paid him 4 million to step aside. How many top boxers did Tyson avoid. Most of them. Lewis never turned away from a fight. He put everything on the fight against Tyson when no one would give him a fight.
Mike Tyson was 35 years old when he fought Lewis. Lewis was 36 years old.

You gotta respect mike.He did not quit.Mike wasn't in shap.
Not even close, typical Tyson fight 1 round trick pony. Announcers are brutal, Tyson got another lesson here. Gave us 3 years of quality boxing, the rest...
This was when Tyson was washed up. 5 years earlier this would have been a match.
Tyson wasn’t mentally and physically ready. Tyson tried hard the 1st round but Lewis hugged and laid on Tyson until Mike gave up. Not to mentioned all the underhanded tactics Lewis used for the rest of the fight. Mike wasn’t mentally there anymore and was just waiting for the fight to be over.
I stand to differ with many, what i see here is a nasty fight where the other fighter is allowed to hold, lean and jump over the shorter fighter. That's against the rules of boxing match. Tyson got tired because Lewis mount his heavier body over him. Look at Holmes vs Mercer, Holmes vs McCall, Tyson vs Tills, Lewis vs Mercer there were no such holding, leaning and jumping over other fighter. Lewis also did this to Holyfield2, he pushed and grabbed.
