Lewis described the present era as a continuation of the golden days of boxing's heavyweight division. He reminisced about his time as the last undisputed heavyweight champion before Usyk. Lewis confidently stated that while he considered himself stronger than Tyson Fury, he acknowledged Fury's abilities, noting his good boxing skills and considerable height could have led to a great match between them.

Oleksandr Usyk recently became the sole belt holder in the heavyweight category after defeating Tyson Fury earlier this month. This victory not only elevated Usyk but also reinstated the glory of having a single heavyweight champion, a status last held by Lewis himself in the late '90s.
