Ben Davison shares his view on the fight for the title of absolute world boxing champion.
Tyson Fury should not underestimate Oleksandr Usyk in a possible fight for the undisputed world heavyweight boxing title.
This is what the former coach of the British boxer, Ben Davison, said. According to the specialist, the Ukrainian is certainly not small for the division and has a very strong punch.
“Things are not so simple if you don’t think about someone with thoughts: “Oh, you are small.” Oleksandr Usyk is not a small person.
He hit so hard that anyone that big could get hurt. So there must be an element of respect on Fury’s part. You can’t simply knock out a skilled fighter like Usyk.
Tyson had to push, to force Alexander to work harder than he wanted to. Fury needs to block the ring and slowly wear Usyk down.
Usyk is very good in the clinch, but Tyson is a big man who has thrived in this position as well. I’m sure Usyk will be ready for it. He will engage in wrestling and prepare for the fact that they will pile on him from above.
Tyson couldn’t get out of the first round and just jumped Usyk from the top. At an early stage of the fight, you will need to take steps that will ultimately allow you to achieve this.
Size could be a factor if Fury can get it right. You have to get close to the enemy to realize the dimensions.
Personally, I think that if Tyson tries to play long, Usyk will work up and down, body, body, head, constantly changing the direction of the blows and making them difficult to predict. It might help push Fury away.
It all depends on what tactics Fury will use, if the odds will be to his advantage. I think if he just stands up, the lower weight and height will be an advantage for Usyk,” Davison said in an interview with Queensbury Promotions.
We remind you, it was previously known that the greed of the British boxer may interfere with the fight between Usyk and Fury.
