“If you ask me about the fight with Canelo, then, in my opinion, it will be a bit of an odd fight. Do I agree? Yes, but only for the sake of money,” Usyk said.
In August, the Ukrainian defeated Anthony Joshua for the second time and defended the IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles. His unification bout with WBC title holder Tyson Fury is tentatively scheduled for the first quarter of next year.
“If I fail to fight Fury, I will face Deontay Wilder. However, my main choice is Fury,” Usyk added.
