The last undisputed heavyweight champion has given his assessment on the eagerly anticipated showdown between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.
Last time out Fury put in a subpar performance against Francis Ngannou who was making his professional boxing debut.
Shockingly the MMA star sent ‘The Gypsy King’ to the canvas before narrowly being defeated via a split-decision from the judges at ringside.

But Lennox Lewis believes it will be a fully focused Tyson Fury that turns up for the undisputed clash and not the same fighter that struggled against Ngannou.

He said: “Tyson Fury’s not no easy fight for anybody. He’s elusive, he moves well, he boxes from both sides. For any boxer it’s gonna take a while to figure out.
“Also, the height difference is a problem, 6ft 9ins, it’s not an easy fight for anybody. And he [Usyk] is not gonna get the fat Tyson Fury, he’s gonna get the focused guy. The guy that don’t have a belly, don’t have love handles, is ready, focused and willing.”
Will Fury defeat Usyk? Let us know in the comments.
Tyson will not to much the circus act all the other needs to do go for the body ribs for bit then let rip
Tyson will win by ko
My gute feeling is telling me this one is gonna be a draw.
