Williams, the judge who blew the Holyfield-Lewis fight--and became known to sports fans by her full name, Eugenia, as well as nastier terms--concedes that Lennox Lewis won the pivotal fifth round, but says her view was often obstructed. "I called what I saw," Williams says.

A $39,200-a-year clerk in Atlantic City's landlord-tenant relations office, Williams says she earned $5,100 for her night at the fights. She is amazed that by calling the fight 115-113 for Evander Holyfield she has spurred a New York grand jury investigation and a state senate hearing into the bout. All the fuss is not only "very hurtful," she says, but nonsensical too.

Williams, 48, filed for bankruptcy in January, citing $33,000 in credit card debt, and says she'd never call attention to herself by fixing the prizefight of the year. "My office has been under the gun numerous times," she told SI last week, referring to city hall probes of the landlord-tenant office. "I'm not going to do anything illegal knowing they're watching me like a hawk."

Now she's pestered by strangers and by 4 a.m. calls from reporters.

"You never know who's outside the door," says Williams, who hopes to be just Jean again soon.

As for the bout that made her infamous, she sees Holyfield-Lewis more as a failure of fighters than of judges: "I've seen both of them box before, and I've seen them apply themselves more."
