Mofo2 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 A decade on from Lennox Lewis's retirement, the former undisputed champion of the world gives his views on domestic heavyweight fighters, visits to the capital and West Ham's Premier League struggles. On British heavyweights ‘I’d call ours B-tier at the moment, just below the top guys. I believe David Haye has great talent,speed and movement,as well as punching ability. I think his one mistake was not going Stateside,where they love that sort of showmanship. As for Tyson Fury, he seems good but he has yet to properly prove himself. Too many questions are still unanswered.’ On British boxing ‘When you see our boxers fight, they really go to war and I love that, Carl Froch in particular. But they lack a certain amount of technical ability. Just take Andre Ward in Froch’s division. People might say he’s boring but he has got the titles and he gets the job done. You need all the technical stuff and that’s the big area where our fighters must improve.’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mofo2 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Lewis is in a position to make a judgement on Haye through experience...he says he is better than good, so you should just take it as read! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
