Former world light welterweight champion, British Amir Khan believes that his compatriot Tyson Fury will be able to take over Alexander Usik in the upcoming fight.

The meeting of these fighters, with all titles in the heavyweight division at stake, is scheduled for May 18 in Riyadh.

“I always gave preference to my friend Fury. I think Tyson is a better fighter, he has better skills. Moreover, in my opinion, he is larger and stronger. Fury beat big heavyweights.

Of course, everyone is leaning towards Tyson because he is the current linear heavyweight champion. But Usyk can cause a lot of problems with his style. He is a very unconventional fighter, he is extremely difficult to hit,” Khan said in an interview with the All Out Fighting YouTube channel.
