Legendary Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko named the main advantage of his compatriot Oleksandr Usyk, which will allow him to defeat the British Tyson Fury in the upcoming fight for the title of absolute world champion in the heavyweight division.
The fight will take place today, May 18, in the main event of a boxing show in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
"I would say that in boxing and especially at heavyweight, size matters. We all know the difference between the two guys is huge. We know Fury is taller and has more range. There's no other way for Oleksandr Usyk to fight against Fury like he did against Joshua, and Oleksandr Usyk has been successful twice.
You can accomplish anything you want with this kind of technique. It's not about power or track record. It's about boxing technique. I believe that Oleksandr Usyk is one of the best technicians in modern boxing. I'm sure he will do his job tomorrow," Boxing News quotes Klitschko as saying.
