The well-known former British boxer, now an expert and commentator Tony Bellew shared his thoughts on a potential fight between the unified heavyweight champion Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk and the former division leader American Deontay Wilder.

ā€œIt's an interesting fight. Actually, I think Wilder is afraid of punches. I think the fight with Usyk might be a huge problem for him. I won't lie, there's no point in saying otherwise. But the last thing you lose is your punch.

It will be interesting to see if he manages to land a punch. Because, no matter what, Deontay Wilder remains the most powerful puncher in boxing.

Even if he's a little afraid to hit, in a single punch he has more power than anyone else in the world. I sincerely believe that. So it’s a risky fight,ā€ Bellew is quoted by Ready to Fight.
