🚨 Lennox Lewis reveals best fighter he ever faced
Lennox Lewis has revealed the best fighter he took on during his illustrious career.

Speaking to The Ring, Lewis said: “Evander was very talented, although I was disappointed that he used his head as a punch in those fights.”
“The word was that he was the greatest heavyweight of our era but nobody could say that until he fought Lennox Lewis.”
He continued: “In the first fight he was overconfident, singing during his ring walk, so I went after him and he was shocked to get that draw. Second time around he knew what to expect so it was a tougher fight but I still won comfortably.”
“Holyfield was the best opponent I faced in my career.”
Lewis retired in 2003 with a record of (41-2-1) having avenged both losses and beating every man he ever faced.
