"Speaks volumes": Russian promoter names clear winner of Usyk-Fury rematch

RCC Boxing Promotions CEO German Titov expressed confidence that Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) will win the second fight against Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs). The Russian added that this time the Ukrainian boxer will win in an even more convincing style.

Titov said this in an interview with the propaganda portal Championship.com. The Russian promoter reminded that in the first fight Usyk brought him to victory, even after Fury managed to shock the Ukrainian in the sixth round. At the same time, the Russian representative does not expect a knockout in the fight.

"Most likely, Usyk will win even easier than in the first fight. Fury can re-adjust himself, he can hit. But in the first fight, Fury hit him very hard, but Oleksandr withstood it. This already says a lot. If nothing unexpected happens, Usyk will win on points even more confidently than in the first fight," Titov said.

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

A month after the fight on May 18 , the Ukrainian was forced to give up the International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt, which will be fought for by Anthony Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) on September 21.

Before that, Oleksandr spoke categorically about what would happen if Tyson tried to disrupt the rematch. He also shared his expectations for the second fight with Fury and responded to accusations of cheating during the May 18 fight. In addition, Alexander told what he learned from this fight.

The legendary Volodymyr Klitschko shared his expectations from the rematch between Usyk and Fury. And ex-champion Amir Khan disagreed with the forecasts for the fighters' second fight. In addition, Russian Alexander Povetkin attributed the success of our compatriot to Russia.
