Boxing: Rahman in defiant mood

Newly-crowned WBC and IBF heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman insists he won’t be ‘‘bullied’’ into fighting either Lennox Lewis or Mike Tyson by the threat of legal action.

Lewis is seeking to invoke a 150-day rematch clause in the contract for his fifth round loss to Rahman in South Africa while Tyson believes he is due a shot at the WBC title as their number one contender.
