Ben Davison is famous for his work with Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs), whom he helped to get out of depression, regain shape and return to the echelons of big boxing. Davison and Fury parted ways ahead of Tyson's rematch with Deontay Wilder, but the coach still continues to work with high-class boxers. Davison shared his opinion on a possible fight for all belts in heavyweight - Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk.

“Tyson is very versatile and the course of the battle will depend on what tactical decisions he chooses. Fury vs Usyk is an intriguing duel in every sense. I think that Tyson will have to go for Usyk and that this is a better solution than boxing with a Ukrainian in reverse gear, ”said Davison, 29, whose wards today, among others, are welterweight king Josh Taylor.

Also scheduled for this Wednesday is a three-time postponed tender to organize a duel between Fury and the mandatory challenger, interim champion Dillian Whyte. Fury's fight against White may take place in March or April, but the aforementioned fight of the "King of the Gypsies" for all belts with IBF, WBA and WBO champion Oleksandr Usyk is also possible. To do this, Anthony Joshua, who lost his throne to Usyk last year, needs to accept compensation, the amount of which is announced in the media as 15 million pounds, and refuse revenge with the Ukrainian. White will also have to be persuaded, also with the help of compensation, in order to miss the fight with Fury. According to some media reports, Middle Eastern investors are offering big money for the fight between Fury and Usyk.
