World champion according to WBA, WBO and IBF in the super heavyweight weight category Alexander Usik does not doubt his abilities before the fight with the WBC belt holder Tyson Fury, which will take place on February 17th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Many experts and fans believe that the size of the “Gypsy King” will be the determining factor in the upcoming battle, but the Ukrainian has a different opinion.

“I wanted this confrontation. Boxing wanted this fight. It gives me more motivation knowing that the boxing world wants me to win.

To win, I don’t need to be heavy, I need to be fast and smart. You will never see a fat wolf in the forest,” The Ring quotes Usik as saying.
