WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury confessed that he was very impressed by the first Lennox Lewis and Hasim Rahman fight.
Tyson Fury in an interview with IFL TV
My first vivid memory of boxing is the Lennox Lewis and Hasim Rahman fight. We waited all night for that fight. Rahman put him down in the first rounds. That was my first real strong memory of boxing. Of course, I've watched boxing before, but I wasn't really interested in it until then.
Rahman and Lewis met in the ring in April 2001. In that fight, Lennox was defeated by TKO in the fifth round. Fury had his last fight against Derek Chisora in December of this year. In this fight Tyson won by TKO in the tenth round.
In April of this year Fury came to the ring against his compatriot Dillian Whyte. Tyson won the fight via TKO in the sixth round. He has 33 wins (24 by KO), one draw and no losses.
