More quotes by Lennox Lewis
During the past twenty-three years, I have set a number of goals for myself and I’m proud to say that these goals have been achieved.
Lennox Lewis
The media can make boxers, controls who makes it big and who doesnt. They can build up fighters or knock them down.
Lennox Lewis
After about 25 fights you don't always have to keep going to the bathroom before the fight.

Lennox Lewis
It's not rage that drives me, it's competition.
Lennox Lewis
It's a very interesting fight [Klitchko vs Tyson Fury] because this is the first time [Wladimir] Klitschko is fighting someone as big as him and with longer arms. He will have to be a little bit more aggressive, otherwise the younger guy will have more speed and more energy and I think that may be the difference.
Lennox Lewis
Every era that comes along has a superstar that emerges. Once we are out of the game, there will be a superstar who will emerge that everyone will notice.
Lennox Lewis
I have always been English, ever since I emigrated from England and since the kids in Canada beat me up at the age of twelve for having an East London Cockney accent. I thank them for the cockney taunts because the beatings turned me on to boxing. But on a serious note Canada has been kind to me.
Lennox Lewis
If the media didn't know I played chess, there'd be no angle on me at all.
Lennox Lewis
Action is what separates the do-ers from the dreamers.
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
I come across famous people all the time. It's the respect factor I appreciate. They respect me, they respect what I've achieved and the manner I've done it. It's street credibility. They know where I'm coming from, they know my reputation.
Lennox Lewis
I'm undisputed and there's no disputing that.
Lennox Lewis
Sometimes the image of the intellectual boxer did for me more harm than good. If a boxer has a reputation as an intellectual, some people no longer respect him as a fighter. With me it was always Lennox should react, not think. But thats nonsense. Only the guy who controls his opponent wins.
