Former world heavyweight champion American Steve Cunningham made a forecast for the upcoming fight for all belts in the heavyweight division between the Ukrainian Alexander Usik and British Tyson Fury, which will take place on May 18 in Riyadh.
“I think Usyk can beat Fury for two specific reasons. The first is Usyk's skills. In this area he has no equal. The guy has weird movements, which makes him a very awkward opponent. Usik thinks differently, looks at everything from a different angle and demonstrates boxing of the highest level. He will throw a lot of punches, which will confuse Fury.
The second reason is his team and management. His manager is Egis Klimas. It is a driving force in Europe and throughout the world. “Egis has a solid career and knows how to protect his fighters,” Cunningham said in an interview with the YouTube channel iFL TV.
