The Russian champion said that Usyk will do to Fury in the championship fight

The unified light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol (22-0, 11 KOs) has no doubt that Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) will cause a lot of problems for Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs). The Russian boxer noted that our compatriot has the necessary qualities to stand up to the Briton.

Bivol said this in an interview with the press service of the Queensberry Promotions promotional company, which published a video with the Russian on its page on the social network X, formerly known as Twitter. According to the 33-year-old boxer, he is looking forward to the fight between Usyk and Fury on May 18 with incredible interest.

"I like this fight, this confrontation between Usyk and Fury. It's a really cool fight for boxing fans. I think Usyk is a really good boxer and he will cause problems for Fury. But we'll see what happens," said Bivol.

Last week, the broadcaster of the Usyk-Fury fight in Ukraine was announced and the cost of the show was determined. Former world champion Andy Ruiz (35-2, 22 KOs) made his forecast for the fight. Jordan Thompson (15-1, 12 KOs), the sparring partner of the two rivals, also shared his expectations for the duel.

There are also new details about the two fights between Usyk and Fury, including a rematch in October this year. Tyson himself has already confirmed that he does not intend to give up fight #2 against the Ukrainian. Oleksandr's team has named a boxer who will replace the Briton if he refuses to enter the ring on May 18.

Former two-time world champion Anthony Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) has again given a prediction for the Usyk-Fury fight. In addition, Tony Bellew, a former rival of the Ukrainian, evaluated the fight. And the Russian Artur Beterbiev (21-0, 21 KOs) named Oleksandr's weakness.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, Oleksandr Usyk's manager Egis Klimas categorically answered the question about the disruption of the fight with Tyson Fury on May 18. Also, the Pope's reaction to the fight between the Ukrainian and the Briton became known.
