First, on December 3, the WBC champion will meet in a voluntary defense with Derek Chisora (33-12, 23 KOs). Thus, they complete the trilogy. The three remaining belts - IBF, WBA and WBO - belong to the Ukrainian. Such a duel may take place in the first quarter of next year.
“Usyk beat Joshua twice, and some began to consider him a“ killer ”. I see something completely different. I see Usyk differently than others. After all, Chisora did very well with Usyk. Before the fights with Joshua, no one took Usyk seriously as a heavyweight. For me, Chisora, my closest rival, and Usyk are of the same level of threat, ”said the Gypsy King.
Recall that the Ukrainian left-hander announced after winning the rematch with Anthony Joshua that he would be ready to return in the second half of February. Usyk confirmed that Fury is his top choice.
