'Usyk cannot be taken lightly, he’s the undisputed champion' - Says the Last Undisputed Heavyweight Champion 'Lennox Lewis'!
Currently, there's no sign of an imminent showdown, but Lennox Lewis has shared his thoughts on a potential clash between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight title. Usyk holds the WBA, WBO, and IBF titles, with Fury possessing the WBC belt. Both fighters have impressive records and exceptional skills. Usyk's recent victory over Daniel Dubois and Fury's upcoming bout with Francis Ngannou have fans eager for them to meet and determine a true champion. In a brief YouTube video, Lennox Lewis, the last undisputed heavyweight champ and the first British champ since 1899's Bob Fitzsimmons, highlighted Usyk's credentials. He emphasized:
“Usyk cannot be taken lightly. He’s the undisputed champion under the heavyweights and he hasn’t lost.”Lewis then focused on Usyk's renowned training methods, which incorporate mental and physical aspects. He also noted that Usyk has never faced an opponent as large as Fury, saying:
“When he trains for a fight, when he boxes for a fight, there is mental and physical involved so it’s going to be a great fight. Whatever he does he will come to win, he will pull out the stops. He’s up against a different man. He’s not up against a 6 foot 7 guy, he’s up against a 6 foot 9 guy who boxes orthodox and southpaw and moves very well about the ring.”Lennox Lewis concluded by favoring Fury due to his size, saying:
“I always says a good small guy beats a good big guy, so there you have it.”Regardless of the outcome, the boxing world eagerly anticipates this potential clash, although Fury has recently expressed disinterest in facing any opponents from the boxing world.
