Lewis has fought last bout: trainer
LONDON, Oct 30: World heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis is on the verge of retirement from the ring, according to his trainer Emanuel Steward.
The 38-year-old has not fought or even discussed a fight since knocking out WBC heavyweight contender Vitali Klitschko in Los Angeles in June in what now looks almost certain to have been his final appearance.
Steward told the Daily Express: “Lennox won’t fight before the new year and almost certainly not after that. Lennox won’t fight again. I am as sure of that as I can be.
“I am not saying he definitely won’t go back, but there is very little chance he will return again. Lennox has done all he has to do in the ring. He has won the world title and is the undisputed heavyweight champion in everyone’s eyes. He has got nothing left to prove.”—AFP
