Alexander Krassyuk, the promoter of the undisputed cruiserweight champion Alexander Usyk spoke about the only option that could cause his client to postpone the transition to the heavyweights.

“God only knows if we will see Usyk in the cruiserweights. We are planning to fight next as a heavyweight, but we have one option that appeared on the agenda quite recently. We have an American boxer, who expressed not a wish, but rather hint that it was possible to fight Usyk in the cruiserweights. We are talking about Andre Ward who defeated Sergey Kovalev twice.

“Ward ended career. So did Bellew. Ward can also return. But let him come back, it should be his initiative. As for today, we are interested in heavyweights,” Krassyuk said.
