Legendary former world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko shared his thoughts on the upcoming rematch between current WBA, WBC and WBO belt holders Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, which will take place on December 21 in Riyadh.
"I think it's going to be ... Practically it will be, because we can't look into the future - only my brother can do that. But I'm sure that the next fight between Tyson Fury and Usyk will either be short, because Oleksandr Usyk will knock out Tyson, or it will be very difficult for both athletes - even more difficult than the first one.
We saw that the fight was very difficult in the ninth round. But I'm proud of Alexander. He achieved everything in the cruiserweight division, and then when he moved up to super featherweight, for me it was a question of how it would be there, for him it was the same question. It's a different environment there altogether, the size and the weight. Usyk will go down in history as one of the most unique athletes in boxing," Klitschko said.
