Former undisputed heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis admitted that he was waiting for a fight between Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua.

"The fight against Ortiz is important for Wilder just as for Joshua fight against Klitschko. He was on the brink of defeat, but showed courage and determination. Now I want to see Wilder-Joshua even more, although Anthony still has other things to do," Lewis said.

Deontay Wilder knocked out Louis Ortiz on March 3 in Brooklyn. Anthony Joshua closest fight is scheduled for March 31 against WBO champion Joseph Parker.
