Dmitriy Kel | Published Dec. 15, 2023, 2:02 a.m.

Illustrious ex-unified world heavyweight champion American Hasim Rahman shared his thoughts regarding the upcoming fight between the Ukrainian Alexander Usik and British Tyson Fury.

The fight, in which the title of absolute heavyweight champion will be at stake, is scheduled for February 17 in Riyadh.

“In this battle I give preference to Usyk. And it’s not just about the fight between Fury and Francis Ngannou. I've always said that Tyson opens up next to lazy heavyweights. However, Alexander is not a lazy heavyweight. He can beat Tyson Fury,” Rahman said in an interview with Pro Boxing Fans.
