Mayweather v Pacquiao: Lennox Lewis backs Floyd for points win

Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis says he is backing Floyd Mayweather Jnr to beat Manny Pacquiao on points.

The two boxers meet this weekend at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. It is estimated to be the richest boxing fight in history, thought to be worth half a billion dollars.

Lewis says he met Pacquiao on Thursday and was surprised by how relaxed the Filipino fighter seemed, the complete opposite of his American opponent.
