Just incase you don't know, apparently at about 4.30pm on BBC2 Sunday Grandstand there is a feature on the Rumble in the Jungle.

From the BBC

And there's a look back at one of boxing's greatest contests, the Rumble in the Jungle, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this weekend. George Foreman is among those reflecting on the heavyweight title clash which saw him deposed as World champion by Muhammad Ali.

And of course The Fight part 2 is on at 9pm.

Thanks KoJoe. Did you see the fight last week with Jack Demsey and Mike Tyson?

I remember Lewis saying he wasn't for showing anyone the bite marks because there were going to be exclusive pictures of them in his forthcoming autobiography. Has anyone read the book? Does it show the pictures?

I think he was refering to the new book by Gavin Evans.

Thanks, have you checked this book out? I wouldn't mind reading a book about Lewis, but only want to read one. I know there was one written in the early 90's and obviously the recent 'LENNOX' one, but is there one that is the best?

And what a great little feature it was to.

Top quality guests and well put together I thought.

AND....... When was the last time you heard the name Roy 'Tiger' Williams mentioned on BBC TV?

Had Foreman himself too.

Does Lennox endorse that book? Just asking just before I order it incase it might be a dodgey one.

Just started reading it myself.

Got to say, Lennox lewis must be the least known major heavyweight champ of recent times, you realise just how little you know about him once you start reading the book.

Lewis is interviewed on numerous occasions, so he must have endorsed t.,
