Lennox Lewis vs. Michael Grant, billed as "Two Big", was a professional boxing match contested on April 29, 2000 for the WBC, IBF, IBO and ''Lineal'' Heavyweight Championship. ==Background== In his previous fight, Lennox Lewis had finally captured the Undisputed Heavyweight Championship, unifying the three major heavyweight titles while also claiming the vacant and less-regarded IBO title after defeating Evander Holyfield by unanimous decision. The contract Lewis signed prior to his fight with Holyfield stated that Lewis' first defense of his newly won championship would have to come against the WBA's number one contender, who at the time was Lewis' previous adversary Henry Akinwande but because of illness was later changed to John Ruiz. However, Lewis refused to face Ruiz and instead agreed to match with undefeated prospect Michael Grant.〔(Lewis Is Fighting Grant And Looking for Tyson ), N.Y. Times article, 2000-02–09, Retrieved on 2013-06-14〕 Initially, the WBA voted in favor of Lewis keeping his WBA title on the condition that he face Ruiz as soon as possible should he defeat Grant, but a federal judge overturned the decision and ordered that Lewis be stripped of his WBA championship.〔(Promoter: Lewis Can Keep His WBA Title Belt ), Philadelphia Daily News article, 2000-03–14, Retrieved on 2013-06-14〕〔(Hard-Hitting Federal Judge Strips Lewis of WBA Title ), L.A.
