Former world champion in the first heavyweight division Mairis Briedis named the names of two boxers who, in his opinion, are capable of creating problems for the absolute champion of the heavyweight division Oleksandr Usyk.

“I think one fighter who can create a lot of danger for Usyk is Jay Opetaia. And also the heavyweight who recently fought Dillian Whyte, Moses Itauma. These two guys can pose problems for Usyk,” Briedis is quoted by Boxing News.

Let us remind you that Usyk last fought on July 19, knocking out Daniel Dubois.
