Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin believes that his former rival Tyson Fury will win Oleksandr Usyk in a duel for the title of absolute world champion.
“Fury has a big body, he moves his upper part well, so Usyk needs to hit the body. When he gets close, he needs to be careful. Usyk can't let Fury tie him up and lean on him. Fury fought me like that, and it took my energy. I think in order to succeed Usyk needs to use angles like he does, throw the jab and hit Fury a lot to the body.
I consider Usyk a very good fighter. In fights with Joshua, he proved that he was big enough for this weight category. I thought it would be too small for Anthony, but Usyk did an amazing job.
At the same time, Fury is my favorite. Tyson is bigger, he is a very good boxer who can also be an aggressor. I think Fury is a smart fighter. He is sure he has all the tools to defeat Usyk. I think he will win on points,” Wallin said in an interview with The Sun.
