Boxing: Maloney split won't hinder Lewis - Rahman

Hasim Rahman has dismissed fears that Lennox Lewis’ recent split with promoter/manager Frank Maloney will be a distraction for the former world heavyweight champion ahead of their forthcoming rematch.

Rahman stunned the world of boxing in Johannesburg last April when, as a rank outsider, he knocked Lewis out in the fifth round with a thundering right hook to snatch away the WBC, IBF and IBO titles.
