Oleksandr Usyk managed to defeat all the top heavyweights

Former WBC welterweight champion Viktor Postol (31-5, 12 KOs) believes that after defeating Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) and winning the title of absolute champion of the super-heavyweight division, Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) no longer has any competitors of a decent level. According to the Ukrainian boxer, the only intrigue is the rematch with Fury.

Postol is confident that even the former WBC belt holder Deontay Wilder cannot fight Oleksandr.

"There's no one else for Usyk to box with there. Yes, only Wilder remains, but it seems that Sasha will have no problems with him. He should even beat the American earlier. Yes, the only thing that would be interesting to see is a rematch with Fury," Viktor believes.

Wilder missed a chance to end the fight early.

However, in the second fight, the Gypsy King may be more dangerous for Usyk.

"It seems to me that it will be easier for Fury to box Sasha because he has already fought him, he will definitely review the fight, work on his mistakes, and he will already know how to work against him. So it seems that it will be harder for Oleksandr if there is a rematch," Postol added.
