Heavyweight legend Lennox Lewis gives Tyson Fury the mental edge over Anthony Joshua ahead of their all-British showdown in December at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. Lewis, the former undisputed heavyweight champion, emphasized the fight's importance for British history and fans, noting it's a bout everyone has been waiting for. He acknowledged the unique styles of both fighters, stating that while Fury may win the mental game, Joshua holds the physical advantage.
Lewis reflected on the historical significance, referencing his own 1993 all-British title fight against Frank Bruno at Cardiff's old National Stadium, which set the stage for this modern rivalry. He noted that despite contractual disputes and venue changes, the fight is finally happening with both athletes ready. The Principality Stadium, which has hosted Joshua's past victories and features a retractable roof, was chosen after Wembley and Madison Square Garden were ruled out.
Lewis urged both fighters to bring their best to training camp and the ring.
