The team of the Ukrainian world champion WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight spoke about the boxer’s plans.
Oleksandr Usyk may step into the ring against legendary boxers Saul Alvarez and Floyd Mayweather. This is what the promoter of the WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF title holder in the heavyweight division, Alexander Krasyuk, said.
True, it will happen no earlier than after the duel for the title of absolute world champion.
“Usyk mentioned the return to cruiserweight. He said at heavyweight in training camp you have to work 50 percent more. Under normal conditions, he is a cruiser.
Usyk said that after he beats Tyson Fury and becomes the undisputed world champion, he can step down and fight, for example, Canelo or Mayweather. More for fun, more like an exhibition fight. He mentioned that because being a heavyweight is a big challenge for him.
Has he thought about making a run at light heavyweight? It’s impossible. He might have to cut off his own leg to do that. I don’t think it’s real,” Krasyuk said in an interview on the YouTube channel Behind The Gloves.
We will remind, earlier it became known that the Croatian heavyweight Filip Hrgovic could interfere in the fight for the title of absolute champion.
