Carlos "Panama" Lewis (born November 4, 1945) is a boxing trainer. He was convicted of tampering with the gloves of Luis Resto in the Resto vs Irish Billy Collins fight of 1983, which subsequently led to the end of Collins boxing career. Collins suffered from depression and eventually suicide following the tragic assault. ==Early career== Lewis was a disciple of trainer Chickie Ferrara. He was Roberto Durán's cornerman when Duran lost a unanimous decision against Wilfred Benitez in 1982.〔Pearlman, Jeff. (Bare Knuckles ). ''Sports Illustrated'', October 26, 1998.〕 During the early 1980s, he was considered one of the best trainers of his time, compared with Emanuel Steward and Lou Duva. The most noted boxer in his stable was light-welterweight champion Aaron Pryor. In 1982, Pryor fought Alexis Argüello. Before the fourteenth round, a cornerman held up a plastic water bottle, but HBO cameras caught Lewis yelling, "Not that bottle, the one I mixed." Pryor knocked out Arguello, but Lewis' comments fueled rumors that the bottle contained stimulants. Lewis said it only contained Perrier and tap water. Although Lewis was never formally sanctioned, the incident sullied his reputation, which was confirmed by his cheating discovered in subsequent fights.〔 It was later alleged in an interview with former Lewis-trained boxer Luis Resto in the HBO documentary film Assault in the Ring, that Lewis would break apart pills used to treat asthma and pour the medicine into the water, giving Resto greater lung capacity in the later rounds of a fight.
