Lennox Lewis thinks that Anthony Joshua can win gold at London 2012 as he gets set to begin his tournament against Erislandy Savon on Wednesday night.

Lennox Lewis thinks that heavyweight hopeful Anthony Joshua can follow in his footsteps and claim an Olympic gold medal at London 2012.

Joshua begins his tournament on Wednesday against tough Cuban Erislandy Savon, the nephew of three-time Olympic gold medallist Felix Savon.

Lewis, who won gold at Seoul in 1988, is confident that Joshua is good enough to handle the pressure and deliver for Team GB.

He said: "I believe he is going to win it. He has the raw talent. Now he must show us the attitude. I told him the other day that London is house, so go clean house.

"It is alot of pressure, mentaly it's very tough to prepare to fight three tough guys in a short time. It's all up to him now, and he is good enough to handle it."

Joshua's opening bout with Savon will take place at 11.15pm on Wednesday.
