Legendary former outright world heavyweight champion Lennock Lewis has named the toughest opponent he has ever had to share the ring with.
"People seem genuinely surprised when I tell them Evander Holyfield was my toughest opponent. Not to be confused with Ray Mercer, whose fight I called the toughest fight of my career.
When you combine Evander's amateur and professional experience, you'd be hard pressed not to notice the success he's had in the ring. I can tease him a little bit. He knows I won both fights, even though he won't admit it. But seriously, he's the only one who has fought me for 24 rounds," Give me Sport quoted Lewis as saying.
