Former world champion Tony Bellew stated that one of his dream fights for next year is the megafight between the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight title holders Alexander Usik and the undisputed world champion in the super middleweight division Saul Alvarez...
According to the Briton, if this fight takes place, then Canelo is unlikely to be able to cope with Usyk's dimensions.
“This is a fight that is unlikely to take place, but I know that Alexander Usyk could be tempted to return to the first heavyweight division if it meant that he could face Canelo Alvarez.
The two best boxers in the sport would have put on an amazing performance, but it would likely be too big a step forward for Canelo. He would have liked this challenge, but in Usyk you get a very special fighter who just might be too big and good, ”Bellew said in an interview with DAZN.
We will remind, earlier Usyk announced his readiness to fight with Alvarez in the first heavyweight, but only on condition that he retains his belts in the heavyweight division.
