«Legs Might Buckle» – Lewis on Usyk vs. Fury Fight

Former unified heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis is concerned about the chin of WBC champion Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) in the fight against WBA, WBO, IBO, and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs).

«I wouldn’t say Fury panicked. He was unhappy with his last fight, so he took this bout very seriously. Tyson lost a lot of weight, his legs are thin. I’m a bit concerned that if he takes a shot to the chin, his legs might buckle. As for me, I have strong legs, so it’s not easy to knock me down.

Big heavyweights have great jabs and great combinations. That’s what Fury should be doing. He has great uppercuts, a great right hand, great left hooks, so he needs to use all the tools in his arsenal.

Tyson is one of the best heavyweights of all time. These are different eras. My era was tough. His era wasn’t as tough,» said Lewis.

Usyk and Fury will meet on May 18.
