Groves assessed Usik's chances in a fight with Fury

Former world super middleweight champion George Groves spoke with respect about the fighting skills of the undefeated Alexandra Usika.

According to the Briton, the Ukrainian unified heavyweight champion will be able to prevail over his compatriot, the holder of the WBC belt Tyson Fury.

“Usyk is a better fighter than Fury. And Alexander is really in great shape. I rate Usik highly - he is smart, he is the most versatile boxer in the heavyweight division.

Of course, his tactics are somewhat counter-attacking. But Alexander easily manipulates the actions of any opponent in the ring. He gets to fight tall, heavy, huge Tyson Fury. But I think the Ukrainian can handle it,” Groves said in an interview with Seconds Out.

Let us remind you that the fight between Usik and Fury will take place on February 17 in Riyadh.
