Kotelnik weighed the chances of Usik and Fury in the upcoming fight

Former world champion in junior welterweight Andrey Kotelnik shared his thoughts regarding the fight for all belts in the heavyweight division between Alexander Usik And Tyson Fury.

— Usik will now rest, I think, for at least 2-3 weeks, because he had a difficult training camp. He needs to switch gears, be with his family, especially since his wife gave birth to a child, and then he will get ready again.

It’s a shame, of course, that there were two weeks left before the fight, the workload was less and less in training, and the fight was postponed.

— What is your forecast for this fight?

— Here it’s evenly split, 50 to 50. Depends on their preparation. It will be difficult psychologically for both, because this is a fight for the absolute and big money. It will be interesting to watch in any case.

Let us remind you that the fight between Usik and Fury was planned for February 17 in Riyadh, but was postponed due to a cut the Briton received during the training camp. Now the boxers are scheduled to meet on May 18 there.
