Khan gave a forecast for the rematch between Usyk and Fury

Former welterweight world champion Amir Khan said that Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) will win the rematch with Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs). The ex-boxer disagreed with those who predict a repeat defeat for the Gypsy King, as the Briton is known.

In an interview with Action Network, the DAZN portal reports, Khan said this. He emphasized that Fury always returned to the ring after unsuccessful and unconvincing fights much stronger, more focused, and more motivated so that Tyson will win the Ukrainian with 100% readiness.

"I've seen comments that Tyson Fury will lose again and this time he'll be knocked out, but I don't see it. One of the things about Fury is that every time he lost or had a bad fight, he came back stronger and knew what to do and how to beat his opponent. He may have taken his foot off the gas pedal in the first fight, but this time he'll have to be focused and ready. He needs the fire in his soul again, and he wants to become a world champion again," said Khan.

We remind you that in the first fight, Usyk defeated Fury by a split decision 114:113, 113:114, 115:112  and became the absolute world heavyweight champion.

A month after the fight, the Ukrainian was forced to give up the International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt, which will be fought for on September 21 by Anthony Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs).

Later it became known that the IBF left Usyk no choice. This situation angered the head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Dana White. The Ukrainian himself commented on his decision. Fury and Usyk will rematch on December 21. The fantastic prize money for the second fight is already known.

Our compatriot shared his expectations from the second fight with Tyson and responded to accusations of fraud during the fight with Fury on May 18. In addition, Oleksandr commented on the injury he received in the fight.

The Ukrainian announced his radical plan to continue his career after the rematch with Tyson. Usyk named the most difficult moment of the fight with the Briton. Our boxer also spoke frankly about his opponent. Coach Serhii Lapin told about his expectations from his fighter's rematch with the Briton.

In addition, Russian Alexander Povetkin attributed the success of our compatriot to Russia. Former world champion Carl Froch called the WBC title to be fought by Joshua and Dubois a paper title.
