Lomachenko: Size is Fury's main advantage in Usyk fight

Dmitriy Kel Feb. 20, 2023, 4:49 a.m.

Former world champion in three weight categories Ukrainian Vasily Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs) spoke about the upcoming fight for the title of absolute champion in the heavyweight division between his compatriot Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) and Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs).

“Of course, it will not be easy, but we need to wait for this fight. It will be very, very difficult for both of them. Of course, I root for my friend Alexander, but I don’t know how this fight will go, because they have different dimensions, and besides, Tyson Fury is very smart. Fury's size is his advantage.

It all depends on what strategy Usyk chooses and how he prepares for this fight. He needs to be very physically strong in this fight," Lomachenko said in an interview with EsNews.
