By Scott Gilfoid: Former heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis says Anthony Joshua doesn’t want to face unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. What makes it painfully obvious to Lewis that Joshua just doesn’t fancy the fight with the 6’7” lightning quick Deontay is the $50 million offer that he turned down from Team Wilder.
By Jim Dower: After many years out of the ring, 52-year-old former heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis will reportedly be battling 47-year-old former heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko in an exhibition bout in September or October, according to 112.International.

By Scott Gilfoid: Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis says IBF champion Anthony Joshua is facing the 41-year-old Wladimir Klitschko at the right time in his career with him coming off of a loss to Tyson Fury and a 2-year layoff from boxing. In Lewis’ opinion, the Ukrainian Wladimir has lost his legs and can’t move as well as he could earlier in his career. Lewis thinks that Wladimir will hang up his gloves after a loss to the 27-year-old Joshua.
By Jeff Aranow: Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis believes that Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) would have never lost to Tyson Fury if his late trainer Emanuel Steward were still alive and training him. Lewis believes that Wladimir would beat IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs) if Steward were still with him. Wladimir will be facing Joshua on April 29 at Wembley Stadium in London, England.
Steward passed away in 2012, and Wladimir has been trained ever since then by Jonathon Banks, a fighter that knows Steward’s training style quite well.
