WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk shared his opinion on the victory of former holder of these belts Anthony Joshua over mixed martial arts star Francis Ngannou.

On March 8, the Briton brutally knocked out the Cameroonian in the second round.

"Look, Anthony is an Olympic champion and Ngannou had his second fight as a pro. People, wake up! An Olympic champion and a rookie. These are different levels. Tyson Fury should have done the same thing to Ngannou, I don't know why he put on that show. Anthony got in the ring and did a good job. People, shut up! And everybody's saying, "Wow! Wow!"

UFC is a great sport, but it's a different sport. Boxing is like a Rolls-Royce, UFC is a BMW or Mercedes," Usik said in an interview with Boxing King Media.
