"I'll make you surrender. I'll destroy you": Fury threatened Usik with reprisals

British champion Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) once again expressed his confidence that he will easily knock out Ukrainian Oleksandr Usik (20-0, 13 KOs). The gypsy king, as they call the Manchester native, considers our compatriot to be a highly overrated boxer who is unable to impose a fight on him.

Fury said that during a press conference in Australia, writes Fight Sports. Tyson added that Alexander's wins over Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs) do not speak to the Ukrainian's high level, and the bout between the two all-Bantamweight division belt holders will not last more than six rounds.

"I'd make him give up. And pretty quick. I don't think this fight would last six rounds, by any means. Everybody overvalues this guy because of the way he outboxed regular fighter Anthony Joshua, but Joshua's not what he used to be. In my opinion, he's way behind .Yeah, and I'm not Joshua. I'm not some big, tough guy who doesn't get loose. I'd destroy Usik," said Fury.

Earlier, Tyson called Usik an ugly coward and expressed his readiness to fight the Ukrainian already in the summer. In addition, he accused the Ukrainian of greed, which led to the disruption of the fight on April 29.

Recall that Saudi Arabia intends to organize Usik vs. Fury and Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) fights on the same night in December. The media published the boxers' fees for the grand show. The total amount will be at least $250 million. That said, Anthony has already confirmed his fight against Deontay.

As reported by OBOZREVATEL, at a press conference in Tenerife Tyson Fury recently made a boorish prank against Alexander Usik. The Ukrainian boxer himself made a clear statement about the fight against the Gypsy King.
