Alexander Krasyuk, promoter Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs), highly appreciates the chances of his ward in a possible fight for the absolute championship in the heavyweight category with Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs).

“As for Fury, everything will depend on how he prepares,” Krasyuk said in an interview with Boxing Social. - If you look at his last fight, he showed not the best boxing, there was no good footwork, technique, tactics. He fought like a fighter, like a Spartan, but there was no big boxing in this performance. But with Klitschko, for example, technically and tactically everything was excellent.”

“He is a man of mood and motivation, and if he is motivated and prepared, this will create problems for Usyk, but he has never faced such an opponent as Usyk,” added the promoter of the WBA, WBO and IBF champion.

When asked about Usyka’s reaction to the news of a possible union with Fury, Krasyuk replied: “Alexander is a person who easily accepts what fate presents. He doesn't make big plans. He often says that if you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans. When he heard about the fight with Fury, he said: “Okay, let's try, see what happens. If AJ doesn't mind, why not? "- He has a winning mentality, and it doesn't matter who his opponent is AJ or Fury."
