Ukrainian super heavyweight Vladyslav Sirenko (20-0, 17 KOs) shared his thoughts on the victory of the new absolute champion of the division Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) over Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs).
- A very emotional and interesting fight. It's not often you see Oleksandr Usyk boxing first, attacking and pressing. I was very impressed when he was able to knockdown Fury. By our account, it was a stolen early victory. Because the referee has to either stop the fight.... He behaved very strangely, gave Tyson a chance to rest, gave extra time.
- Do you think that after this episode with knockdown Usyk still had a chance to press Fury and finish the fight early in the next rounds? Or was the moment already lost?
- I think that the moment was already lost. It was necessary to create a new one.
