EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by John Ferguson, we are transported back to the thrilling world of boxing in the 1990s. The image showcases Matthew Wright, a renowned Mirror journalist, engaging in a playful fight with none other than Lennox Lewis, the reigning WBC World Heavyweight Boxing Champion at that time. The scene unfolds within the walls of a London gymnasium, where these two personalities collide in an unexpected display of camaraderie and sportsmanship. As they exchange punches and jabs with smiles on their faces, it is evident that this encounter is more about fun and entertainment rather than serious competition. This photograph captures a unique moment when worlds collide - journalism meets professional boxing - creating an intriguing blend of athleticism and storytelling. It symbolizes the power of sport to bring people together from different walks of life. As we gaze upon this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we cannot help but feel nostalgic for an era when larger-than-life figures like Lennox Lewis dominated the ring while journalists like Matthew Wright chronicled their triumphs and struggles. This image serves as a reminder that even amidst intense rivalries and fierce battles inside the ropes, there exists room for lightheartedness and friendship outside them. John Ferguson's skillful composition immortalizes this fleeting moment forever etched in history—a testament to both his artistic talent as well as his ability to capture genuine human connections through photography.
