American heavyweight Deontay Wilder believes that he is the WBA, WBO and IBF world champion Oleksandr Usyk will not be able to defeat the WBC title holder and his former rival Tyson Fury because of the huge difference in size.

“I think Fury's size is what brings him the most success. When I look at Fury's fight with Usyk, I remember how he cheated with Steve Cunningham. Fury leaned on him with his weight, grabbed him and hit him. I see that he can do the same with Usyk.

I think Usyk is more skillful, but if we talk about dimensions, then I don’t think that he will be able to oppose something to such dimensions. But who knows, that's just my opinion. This is boxing. This is where styles make fights and different things can happen.

If they put up a fight, let the strongest win. I wish them only the very best," Wilder said in an interview with Fight Hub TV's YouTube channel.
