Emmanuel Steward made the remark that in no way would Lennox ever fight in Germany. Does anyone have any idea why they wouldn't want a fight there?

You think Lewis had problems with Cotton during the Tyson fight? See what would happen in Germany. He could have a KO and they would call it a knock-down. Pharoh

fighter. Brian Davis Riverdale, IL PETE ROSE BELONGS IN THE HALL OF FAME! There's a history of that in the good ol' USA, too. I understand what Emmanuel is worried about, but we can see raw deals handed out to fighters almost weekly, especially on the undercards. Bobby Bearden

Bobby Bearden There are also the rumors that Kellerman brought up on Friday Night Fights, about the use of chemicals put on the gloves to infect opponents eyes. Even if the rumors are false, I would be leary as a manager of letting my fighter go over there to fight. Especially when Lewis is in the posititon to dictate the terms, as the champion. Mattt Matt

Mattt Matt Well, not trying to defend German boxing or even doubt such a thing happened to Bird, but again a history of that major _title_ bouts in the US, either. Both Rocky Marciano and Muhammed Ali were blinded by substances possibly on their opponent's gloves in their bouts for the championships. Lewis, as champion, is in the position to demand inspection of gloves and even have considerable influence on choice of judges. Bobby Bearden
