Chisora: Usyk knows Wilder can knock him out

Derek Chisora believes that Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) fears that Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) can be a tougher opponent for him than Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs).

Chisora, who lost to Usyk on points in 2020, in an interview with SecondsOut assessed the possible future confrontation between the Ukrainian and the Bronze Bomber. “I agree [that it will be harder for him with Wilder], he knows that Wilder can knock him out,” Chisora ​​said.

Usyk, who will return to the ring on August 26 against Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs), has previously expressed respect for Wilder, although, as he himself recently stated in an interview, his priority is the confrontation with Fury, because the "Gypsy King" , unlike the American, is the owner of the fourth championship belt, which is missing for his complete collection.
