Ive very honoured to do this in just my fourth fight. Im bless to be training at Pinkys gym with my mentor Matt Floyd (“The Jedi”) hes really a father figure to me and I see how hard he trains and what he puts in and it’s a great example for me. Also Tony (Tolj) is unbelievable and to get me this opportunity I cant thank him and the team at Dragon Fire Boxing enough but its up to me to capitalize and I plan on winning in devastating fashion” Lewis had a small amateur career before turning to the pro ranks June last year in Adelaide and since that time has remained active.
