"He will be given the victory". Undefeated boxer says what will happen in the Usyk-Fury fight

Famous Ukrainian welterweight boxer Taras Shelestiuk (19-0-1, 13 KOs) has made his prediction for the May 18 Usyk-Fury fight. Shelestiuk assumes that the judges will favor the Ukrainian and allow him to win on points.

Taras Shelestiuk believes that the world treats Usyk not only as a sports figure but also as a political one.

"I hope that Sania will win because I have a feeling that even if it's on points, and Sania wins by two or three rounds, he will be given the victory. I think Sania is being led, not only in his boxing career but also in his political career. So, I think if he has the best fight of his life, he can win this fight," Shelestiuk said on the YouTube channel TIK MAISON.

In addition, Shelestiuk is not surprised that the fight between Usyk and Fury has already been canceled once.

I knew that the fight in February would not take place. I felt that this fight was not yet ripe. This is all done to warm up the public. Fury is looking very powerful in training camp right now. I don't think he even prepared for Ngannou, he just drank beer," Taras emphasized.

Shelestiuk emphasized that everything in professional boxing is promoted according to its own rules.

"When you're here, you understand boxing a little differently, because look at the history. It's always like this, the Pacquiao fights, they postponed it several times, set a date, postponed something, someone got injured, or something. So they are doing it very, very competently, and as a result, the excitement for this fight will be very high," the undefeated Ukrainian boxer summarized.

WBO, WBA, IBF, and IBO titles holder Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) and WBC champion Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) will fight for the absolute title on May 18.

The broadcaster of the Usyk-Fury fight in Ukraine has been announced and the cost of the show has been determined. Former world champion Andy Ruiz (35-2, 22 KOs) made his prediction for the fight. Jordan Thompson (15-1, 12 KOs), the sparring partner of the two rivals, also shared his expectations for the duel.

Before that, Fury spoke frankly about Usyk, calling him a terrible person. The British boxer also spoke about being bullied in his younger years, when he was offered to quit the sport. In addition, he spoke about the fantastic fees paid by rivals for the fight.

It has become known that the rematch between Usyk and Fury is scheduled for mid-October. Tyson himself has already confirmed that he has no intention of giving up fight № 2 against the Ukrainian.
