Boxing legend Lennox Lewis joins ITV Box Office team for Chris Eubank Jr v Renold Quinlan fight

Former undisputed world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis has joined the ITV Box Office team to provide expert analysis for Chris Eubank Jr's upcoming IBO World Super-Middleweight clash with Renold Quinlan.

The fight takes place at London Olympia on February 4th and will be the first ever broadcast on ITV's new pay-per-view channel, ITV Box Office.

And British boxing legend Lewis, who remains the last undisputed heavyweight champions of the world, can't wait for the main event.

He said: "This fight will be very interesting. Chris Eubank Jr. is a lot like his dad, who I came up in boxing with. In fact, the first time I saw Chris was at their house where his dad was training him. The legacy has been handed down.

"I think the last name is something he's trying to live up to, and maybe even do better than his dad, and that has motivated him into becoming the world class fighter that he is now!

"I'm looking forward to this fight. Eubanks Jr. is a showman in the ring. He's aggressive, throws high volumes of punches and is very elusive. He's a great athlete and his physical conditioning is never a question. I expect him to come in and be himself, and usually that's good enough to get the job done."

The signing of Lewis represents another major coup for ITV Box Office after they announced the capture of pound-for-pound king, Andre Ward, as a pundit for the fight earlier this week.

While Lewis may not know too much about Eubank Jr's opponent, Renold Quinlan, he says that he should not be taken lightly.

He added: "I can't say I know much about Quinlan but he's the champ and there's a reason for that so, even though Eubanks may be a bigger name, you can't take him lightly.

"Quinlan has only had half the fights that Eubank Jr. has had so this will be a big challenge for him so come in against someone with that experience and in their prime.

"Even though he has the title, with so few fights, Quinlan has kind of been in a bubble fighting in Australia. This fight will really let us know if he's the truth and really belongs in the conversation on the world stage.

"There's a lot of questions to be answered by both fighters on February 4th. I can't wait to get the answers."
