Shavers never had his measured though, and neither did Tyson. Bill Cayton wouldn't let him.

But the one he jabbed and the guy fell over dead.
The other guy he just bludged and the ref wouldn't stop it.

Tyson? He got them with about 2 combo's in a row. The first one knocked you down, or hurt you, and the 2nd one finished you off unless you could keep away or with stand the moment.. Shavers on the other hand was 1 big punch and you were out.

I know. I ran out of slots.
Also, the right hand that Lewis KO'd Rahman with, it wasn't a peach, it was a cherry bomb.
