Yep, I can remember that. After one of his title defenses Lewis confronted Bowe in the ring and repeatedly told him he was going to knock him out in a calm voice. Bowe's reply was something like "you ain't knockin' no one out". I think it was pretty obvious that he didn't want to be embarrassed by Lennox again, like at the Olympics.

Would have been a good fight if Bowe had the stomach for some revenge. Hopefully we get to see it eventually in my TGPiS uni.
