"He'll never lose": former world champion dissuades Usyk from fighting Fury
Famous American boxer Shannon Briggs expressed confidence that Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) will defeat Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs). The former lineal world champion actually called on the Ukrainian to refuse to fight an opponent who is much bigger than him.
Briggs said this in an interview with the Fight Hype YouTube channel, Boxing Social reports. According to the former rival of the legendary Vitali Klitschko, Tyson is impossible to beat because he is not only physically bigger, but also has high skill and an awkward style.

"You shouldn't go against Fury, he never loses. You can't go against such a big man who can move like that. He's a big man, look at his legs, he's got a funny build, he's got the legs of a normal tall boxer, but he's got the body of a fat person who doesn't train, and that helps him. He has no muscles, but muscles don't box. He has such agility, he can move, he can move his head. Size doesn't always matter, but in this case we're dealing with a big guy, a big man who can move and box like that. He's dangerous," Briggs said.
