Lennox Lewis: Khan has a great chance
Lennox Lewis says Amir Khan has a 'great chance' to win his fight against Saul Alvarez.
Khan faces the Mexican in their WBC middleweight title fight in Las Vegas on Saturday.
And former world heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medallist Lennox Lewis believes this is a big chance for the Brit to take his place in the hierarchy of British boxing.
"British boxing is doing so well this era, as far as Khan is concerned it's time for him to take his place," he told 5 live's boxing correspondent Mike Costello.
"He still has a great chance, we're going to have to see how he boxes at this weight."
