Saturday's fight between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua for the IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight belts, which ended with another victory for the Ukrainian, made Usyka the leader of the royal division and world boxing. The father of WBC champion Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) has a different opinion.
“My son is on a different level than the rest. He is number one in the world. Number two is Deontay Wilder (twice defeated by Fury, former WBC champion - ed.). Number three is Usyk and number four is Joshua,” said John Fury.
“The only way to defeat the Ukrainian is to apply constant pressure. You can’t give him time to think, he is a very talented guy,” added the father of the “Gypsy King”.
Recently, Tyson Fury announced his retirement, but after the second fight between Usyk and Joshua, in his harsh and eccentric manner, he announced his desire to return. The Briton and the Ukrainian want a confrontation at the highest possible rate, and it seems that this long-awaited fight by the entire boxing world can take place before the end of this year.
