“Usyk is very technical. I believe he needs to close the distance. He is very skilled. Usyk trained with Papachenko, so he probably already knows what he needs to do. They are both experienced fighters and have both spent a lot of time in boxing. It will be normal for them. I'm glad this fight is finally happening.
Would I aim for Fury's cut? The answer is obvious, isn't it? Usik has become much better since our fight. He has adapted properly to the heavyweight division. Then he had just performed at the Olympics, he had an amateur style. Now Usyk has turned into a super heavyweight. He hits hard, he's tough, he throws a lot of punches. Usyk is very skilled, so this is a fight of the best against the best. Let the best man win,” Joyce said in an interview with the YouTube channel iFL TV.
Usik's fight against Fury is expected to take place on May 18 in Riyadh.
