Former world champion American Chris Algieri shared his forecast for the upcoming fight between the Ukrainian Alexander Usik and British Tyson Fury.
The confrontation between these fighters, with the title of absolute heavyweight champion at stake, will take place on February 17 in Riyadh.
“I have always believed that Fury is superior to Usyk, but after his last fight there were a lot of questions. In addition, Usyk did not look great in his fight with Dubois. Does Alexander have a chance to win? Of course he is a phenomenal fighter. It is not for nothing that he is in third place in the ranking of the best boxers, regardless of weight.
This fight will be fun to watch because I want to see that moment where Usyk switches gears and tries to win. But regardless of everything, I think Tyson still has something in store, at least one more opportunity to come back and score an impressive victory. So I predict Fury’s victory, and quite confidently,” Boxing Social quotes Algieri.
