Oleksandr Usyk, Bob Arum and Tyson Fury

Co-promoter of the WBC World Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 34 KOs) Bob Arum is sure that for his ward the fight with the holder of the WBA, WBO and IBF titles Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) will be a serious test due to the nationality of the opponent.

“I can’t discount Usyk. Oleksandr is a Ukrainian, and for people this fact must mean something.
See how the Ukrainians fought the Russians and crushed their sides. But their country is much smaller. So Ukrainians are really tough guys, great people. And Usyk will not be a cakewalk, as they say, ”said Arum in an interview with the YouTube channel International Boxing News
