Former super middleweight titleholder Carl Froch believes Lennox can defeat the current WBC champion.
Who is better – Lennox Lewis or Tyson Fury? Former super middleweight world champion Carl Froch had to find an answer to this question, and he decided easily.
Froch prefers Lewis, because he did not run or hide from fights with the strongest boxers, but won titles and made history.
“The reason I’m hesitant is because Fury is certainly big, agile, light enough on his feet and has pretty quick combinations to give anyone a tough fight.
But I think Lennox Lewis – especially the Lewis who outclassed Andrzej Golota, had a convincing rematch with Hasim Rahman after the knockout, and is on par with the best of the best.
He probably had opponents past their prime, like Mike Tyson. But Lewis has a better track record. He is the greatest sportsman of all time, if not the most outstanding British man.
If you look at Fury’s track record, he is a very talented fighter and possibly one of the best, especially if he beats Usyk and gets the Anthony Joshua fight. But for now, based on his boxing resume, Lewis beat Tyson Fury,” Boxing Social quotes Froch as saying.
Let’s remember that Zhilei previously criticized Fury and Ngannou for the fight.
