Lou Duva says he is looking forward to heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield fighting Lennox Lewis in the spring.

Duva, Holyfield’s manager, said that such a bout “will restore some credibility to the heavyweight scene” after Lewis knocked out Razor Ruddock in the second round in London.

Holyfield defends his title against Riddick Bowe in Las Vegas on Nov. 13.

“I think Holyfield will beat Bowe,” Lewis said. “I was knocking on his door. Now I’ve kicked the door down and I’m going after him.”
