“And yes, I believe he can win another World Championship. I think Lewis has an opportunity, which is almost cemented in place already.
“In my opinion, that is one of the greatest ever, and I think if you give him another world championship you know, that will set the benchmark so high, it’ll be very, very difficult for anybody to achieve that again.
“So, you know, it’s all open there for the taking,” the Briton concluded.
