Rule Britannia, the Heavyweight Division
I’m sure Lennox Lewis’ opponents would beg to differ about whether or not he can fight.
It appears to me that it’s sour grapes on Jim Murray’s part when he writes that Lewis is a one-dimensional fighter. There are about five heavyweights in England who are superior to anything we have to offer in this country. Apart from Mike Tyson, there isn’t a heavy worth his weight who is in the class of Hide, Bruno, Mason, Akewande or Lewis.
Time will tell, and I hope that Murray can face the prospect that this country no longer rules the heavyweight division.
