Former world champion Lennox Lewis has declared the heavyweight division “dead” and criticised current champions Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko for fighting sub-standard boxers.
According to the report from Agence France-Presse, Lewis, 46, retired in 2003 as the WBC and IBO champion after defending his titles with a sixth round technical knock-out of Vitali Klitschko, but says the heavyweight division badly needs more exciting fighters to come through.
“Right now, the heavyweight division is dead,” London-born Lewis told German magazine Stern.
