Former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder said that the current holder of the title Tyson Fury is a tougher challenge for him than the owner of the remaining belts in the division, Oleksandr Usyk.

"I believe I will meet Fury for the fourth time. Probably out of the two of them the easier opponent would be Usik, I've never fought him before. Styles create fights, we've never fought each other, so we don't know each other, it would be different.

When you make a fight with someone you've never fought before, you don't know what surprises can happen. But at the end of the day, I respect all fighters who get in the ring, they risk their lives for others," - quotes Wilder Sky Sports.

Recall that Fury and Wilder met three times in the ring. The first fight ended in a draw, after which the Briton twice stopped the American.
