Former world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis, after leaving professional boxing, stated that he is ready to return to the ring in order to fight Vitali Klitschko.
According to Lewis, published in The Sunday Mirror, he is tired of hearing Klitschko's talk that the ex-champion refuses to accept the challenge because he is afraid of him.
"Klitschko gets on my nerves with such statements," said Lewis. "I was offered 21 million pounds sterling to return, and I simply cannot refuse such a sum. I am starting to train and returning to England." I am going to seriously begin training and I am returning to England to resolve this matter."
Recall that Lewis was present at Vitali Klitschko's last fight at the end of the year with Danny Williams, in which the Ukrainian won. After this fight, Lewis criticized both participants of the fight, noting that he would have defeated the elder Klitschko without any problems.
