Usik and Fury should fight in winter

World Boxing Council (WBC) belt holder Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) will defeat Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) and become the absolute world heavyweight champion. The Gypsy King, as the Manchester native is called, will write his name in the history of sports.

Fury himself expressed his confidence in this in an interview with Boxing Scene. The British boxer noted that he has no fear of the Ukrainian champion, praising his level. According to Tyson, Usik is too small to confront him, which will affect the result.

"There is only one winner. I am destined to become the ultimate champion. All I have to do is defeat this little man. That's it. I know it's easier said than done. Oleksandr is a good boxer, he's agile and everything. But listen, I've seen a lot of guys like him before. When they face a big man, they have to fight. He has a fight on February 17, and he's going to lose. I will break him, that's for sure," Fury said.

The day before, London announced the date of the Usik-Fury fight, which was originally scheduled for December 23. Interestingly, the boxers almost fought during a duel of the eyes. In addition, the Ukrainian admitted how the postponement of the fight affected him. Oleksandr also paid a number of compliments to his British opponent.

Earlier, our compatriot urged journalists not to ask him questions about Tyson. During the WBC congress in Tashkent, a local media representative touched Usik by asking a question in Ukrainian.

In addition, bookmakers have abruptly changed their quotes for the Usyk-Fury fight. In turn, Oleksandr spoke about what he would do after defeating Tyson, who recorded a video message to the Ukrainian with a promise to knock him out by the end of the fourth round.
