The former legendary boxer criticized his countryman for his antics in the ring.
Tyson Fury lost to Oleksandr Usik in the fight for the title of absolute world champion because he did not take his opponent seriously.
This is what former world boxing champion Lennox Lewis said. According to the legendary athlete, he was finally damaged by the antics of the Briton in the ring.
“Fury boxed like he won the fight. No boxer should think or say he won the fight.
Every time a round is close, they have to look at it as a loss,” Lewis told DAZN.
Meanwhile, social networks showed Lennox Lewis’ reaction to Fury’s heavy knockdown in the fight against Usik. With Usyk attacking furiously, Lennox kept a close eye on what was happening in the ring. After the referee began the count, Lewis shook his head sadly. The video also shows how former world junior welterweight champion Amir Khan, who was sitting behind him, reacted to this episode.

Let’s remember that Usik’s victory over Fury brought him the absolute heavyweight championship.
In the past, Fury has named those responsible for his loss to Usyk.
