Fury called the confrontation with Usik the fight of the century

Tyson Fury, WBC heavyweight champion of the world, called the upcoming fight with WBA, WBO, IBF world champion Oleksandr Usyk the fight of the century.

"It's the fight of the century. I say so, because it really is. In this fight will meet the one who beat Joshua, Chisora and Dubois, and the one who beat Wilder three times (the first fight was a draw), Klitschko and Whyte. We are the last two who are still standing upright...," Fury stated.

Also the Briton noted that a few years ago Usik was not even close to the top of the super heavyweight division, but the victory over Joshua allowed him to break in there.

Recall, the fight between Usik and Fury will be held on May 18 in Saudi Arabia.
