Absolute world heavyweight boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk shared his opinion on former division leader Tyson Fury.
On May 18 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the Ukrainian defeated the Briton by split decision of the judges. The rematch is expected to take place on December 21 there.
"I don't know if Fury was surprised that he was shaken by the 'little rabbit'. I don't know, but I'm not thinking about Tyson Fury. Look, I have a lot of respect for Tyson because he's a very good fighter, a very good person, but that's my opponent. It's a very tough opponent, it's a very smart man. What does Tyson do? "Blah, blah, blah, blah?" A lot of words. Like a clown. And that's what makes us different," the Ukrainian said on the 3 Knockdown Rule podcast.
