Legendary American boxer Roy Jones stated that he does not yet seek to see unification in the heavyweight division between the WBA / WBO / IBF champion Oleksandr Usyk and WBC title holder Tyson Fury.

In his opinion, Usyk's fights with Anthony Joshua and Fury with Dillian Whyte may turn out to be more interesting than their potential megafight.

“I don’t know about everything, but I only express my point of view, because everyone has their own opinion. For now, I don't necessarily want to see the Usyk-Fury fight. I want to watch Usyk vs Joshua again and see Fury vs Dillian Whyte because it's boxer vs puncher and boxer vs puncher again.

Potentially, these are two great fights. Usyk's first fight with Joshua was great. And the second time, it will also be wonderful. The Fury-White fight is going to be great because one is a great thinking boxer and the other is a great puncher. In this case, the best fights always turn out, unless there are two dominant punchers in the ring.

The only real matchup of dominant punchers is if you put White against Deontay Wilder. You know this fight won't last more than six rounds because they're both dominant punchers," Roy Jones told talkSPORT Boxing YouTube channel.
