Fury: "A win over Usyk would make me the greatest boxer in history"

Dmitriy Kel May 15, 2024, 3:58 a.m.

WBC heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury believes that WBA, WBO and IBF belt holder Oleksandr Usyk is the most difficult opponent in his career.

The fight between the Brit and the Ukrainian will take place on May 18 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

"I think he's the best opponent I've ever faced. I've fought world heavyweight champions or undefeated boxers before, I've fought Olympic gold medalists before, but I've never fought a two-weight world champion before. So I think that puts him at the top of the list. I think this win will make me the absolute best, put me in the status of the greatest in history," Fury told DAZN .
