Lennox Lewis the former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, believes Audley Harrison has the punching power to cause an upset in next Saturday’s all-British world heavyweight fight against David Haye.
.
Lewis who stared in the last heavyweight battle of Britain against Frank Bruno in 1993 at the Cardiff Arms Park, believes Harrison’s punching power gives him a big chance to create an upset against the WBA champion Haye in a sell out Manchester’s MEN Arena.
.
Lewis, speaking on BBC Radio 5 live’s Sportsweek said: “Audley realises this time it’s now or never. He sounds very confident.
.
“Audley’s got the power to stun the world and upset everybody’s thinking. It’s another great fight for Britain.” said Lewis.
.
“David Haye is a better boxer, he can get off his combinations quicker, but Audley is a consummate pro. He is an Olympic champion and that is a great pedigree.
.
“There have been a couple of stumbling blocks but he is still here. That shows me the desire to be accomplished and successful. I think it will be a close fight.”
.
“Audley needs to prove to us that he has got good stamina,” said the former three-time world champion and boxing legend.
.
“And he needs to throw a lot of punches and use that left jab and his size advantage and try to get through with one of those terrific left hands.
.
“Boxing’s an uncertainty. You never know what may happen if Audley’s able to contend with David Haye’s speed and neutralise it.” added Lewis.
