British super bantamweight veteran Dereck Chisora has called absolute division champion Oleksandr Usyk the toughest opponent of his career.

"Is Usyk the best boxer I've fought? Unequivocally. He makes you work when you don't want to work. You want to catch your breath and he keeps coming at you and coming at you. I had a terrific fight against him, but I still lost.

I'll tell you straight up, Usyk can't knock you out with one punch. But he does combinations, four or five in a row. It was like that against Tyson Fury - he broke Tyson Fury's nose, he didn't know what was going on. It can not be understood until you are with Usyk in the same ring, - said Chisora in an interview with talkSPORT.

Recall that in 2020 Chisora lost to Usyk by unanimous decision of judges.
