More quotes by Lennox Lewis
When I was fighting Tyrell Biggs, Tyson was telling me at ringside to hit him to the ribs. We always had a mutual respect for each other since we sparred those early times. We got that over with.

Lennox Lewis
Whatever I do, I always want to get better.
Lennox Lewis
When I saw Tyson knocking everybody out on TV, I thought, He's goooood. But when I saw him in person, he didn't look as awesome.
Lennox Lewis
I am just taking the top fights out there for me. People will get bored seeing me every day knock someone out.
Lennox Lewis
A boxer should quit at the top, as they say. But thats complicated. There are plenty of people in boxing who make money out off you. And they tell you that youve still got it, that its still getting better.
Lennox Lewis
The mission I set out on in the beginning - to become heavyweight champion of the world, undisputed, lineal champion - you could say that mission is complete.

There is just one rule about boxing: never bet on the white guy.
Lennox Lewis
People are still crying out for Lennox Lewis. They still want to see Lennox Lewis. That motivated me. I am still young. I have a couple fights left in me.
