WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO World Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) spoke about a possible fight with Saul Alvarez (20-0, 13 KOs), the absolute world champion in the second middleweight.
“Saul Alvarez talked about it. But it's still a freak fight. He boxes at 76 kg. Where does he want to box? In a cruiserway? Okay, I'll do 90,700 kg. I think that he will have a maximum of 86–87 kg. I tell you that this battle is interesting only because you can earn good money on it. In terms of boxing? I do not know. I think it will be interesting for the fans to watch this, because a little less and more guys are boxing ... ”, Usyk said.
Earlier, Canelo announced his readiness to fight Usyk, saying that he likes to be in difficult situations.
