It became known what exactly will happen in the fight Usyk - Fury

Famous Ukrainian welterweight Ivan Holub (21-1, 16 KOs) made his prediction for the fight between WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) and WBC champion Tyson Fury (34-01)-1, 24 KOs). According to Golub, in his fight against Usyk, Fury will try to make the most of his anthropometric data.

Ivan specifically described what he thinks will happen between the Ukrainian and British heavyweights in a fight for the absolute championship.

"Tyson will use something like this tactic: a jab, a little right hand, a little pile on with the whole weight, a little tie up. He will try to 'load' Usyk's legs with his weight. He'll try to overwhelm him, hang on him," the National League of Professional Boxing of Ukraine quoted Holub as saying.

At the same time, Holub admitted that this style was expected from Joshua when he boxed in his first meeting with Oleksandr.

"I remember watching the fight with Sergiy Korchynskyi and not being able to understand what was happening in the ring. As a schoolboy, I went to box with Usyk. Sasha was just taking him to school. He was so confident on his feet. He did everything well," Ivan said.

We would like to remind you that the fight for the absolute heavyweight championship between Usyk and Fury will take place on February 17, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Former cruiserweight world champion and now boxing analyst Johnny Nelson suggests that this fight will not take place on the specified date.

Earlier this evening was scheduled for December 23, but Tyson Fury was diagnosed with an autopsy during his fight with Francis Ngannou and the fight was postponed. Before that, Oleksandr Usyk fought Daniel Dubois, where he won by knockout.

This is the first fight for the title of absolute world champion in the era of four belts. The last absolute champion in heavyweight was Lennox Lewis - in 1999, he held the WBA, WBC and IBF belts, which was enough for such a title.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, former world champion in four weight categories Roy Jones Jr. expressed confidence that Oleksandr will face his main problem in the fight with Tyson - the lack of a powerful knockout punch.

On January 1, the BETSiE supercomputer, which predicted the results of the most important sporting events of 2024, named the winner of the Usyk-Fury mega-fight.
