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.
