worst imitation McD shorts ever.

Why did he throw Lennox if he was 'helping' him train for a boxing fight?

Oh and that guy tapped twice didnt he?

He said on the video it's because Lennox Lewis kept putting his hand in his face in the clinch. He threw him once. Lennox did it again. He threw him again. Then, they got along.

Oh and that guy tapped twice didnt he?

What do you mean? When?

i hate to say this but
for a pro fighter who so far has not accomplished much of note in MMA
he seems to have an ego as large as a big barn.

If you watch the documentary 'Lennox Lewis: The Undisputed Truth' it features the whole build-up and training camp for Lewis' fight with Holyfield. Basically Jeremy Williams was acting like an unprofessional moron during the camp. He threw Lennox because he was getting schooled in sparring and he didnt like it.

I know but what use is throwing someone when they are preparing for a boxing match? He could have injured him. Not to mention its absolutely pointless.

What do you mean? When?

3:33

[Titan]

At 3:33, I'd venture the guess that the referee behind them is telling break (because he steps in to break), and the opponent is tapping to signal that he wants a clean break.

[Dado]

I dont know, he was particularly bad at the takedown and he did eventually get choked the same way at the end.

Cool. thanks!
