The former light heavyweight champion considers a heavyweight unification bout possible.
The fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will definitely take place. Oleksandr Gvozdyk believes in this.
At the same time, the former light heavyweight title holder refused to comment on which of the boxers was guilty of disrupting the first possible fight in the spring. However, he noted that the Ukrainian was able to get into Fury’s head.
“I believe that the Usyk-Fury fight will take place. Why not? What surprises me in this situation, and it’s hard to believe, but it seems to me that Usyk got into Fury’s head.
I saw him, I saw how he behaved in press conferences with other boxers. This is a man who is 100% confident in himself. I don’t see it in Alexander.
Sanya knows how to demoralize or hypnotize her rivals. I think it works with Fury as well. I can’t say that Fury is afraid of him, and it seems to me that this is a very difficult fight for Usyk, but I believe that he can win.
Something is happening there. There were rumors that they canceled the match because someone offered more money. It’s possible, but I don’t know for sure. Who broke the battle – I don’t know either.
I know Sanya agreed to 30%, but when it comes to money, it’s not just a boxer’s decision. Of course, the boxer makes the final decision, but there is a team, managers, promoters. Everyone is interested, so we’ll see,” said Gvozdyk in an interview with the Two Sideways YouTube channel.
Earlier, Gvozdyk explained why the referees awarded Haney the victory against Lomachenko.
