Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury: Lennox Lewis makes his prediction

The two heavyweights meet for Wilder's WBC world title at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles next month
                                           






Lennox Lewis has admitted he can't call the upcoming heavyweight world title fight between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury .
Wilder will defend his WBC belt against the Brit on December 1 in Los Angeles.
And Lewis expects the American to deal with Fury's unorthodox style better than Wladimir Klitschko did when he was outpointed three years ago.
“Wilder is a different kettle of fish; I don’t think Klitschko expected Tyson Fury to be so active, so elusive in their fight," said Lewis.
"He didn’t expect Fury to move so much. I think Deontay will be expecting that. And I think he’ll move with him. It’s completely different.


"Tyson Fury is fast on his feet, elusive. We’ll see if Deontay can catch up with him.
“It’s such a hard fight to predict. Both guys have talent and both have power. We’re not going to know what happens until we see the fight.”
Wilder, meanwhile, believes he has been able to adequately replicate Fury's style in sparring.
"Well when you get sparring partners to come in and try to mimic another fighter, you can only ask them to do the best that they can do," he said.
