The famous American boxer considers the British champion guilty of interrupting the fight in isolation.
The duel for the title of absolute world champion did not take place, because Tyson Fury was afraid of Oleksandr Usyk. This is what the famous American boxer Michael Hunter said.
In his opinion, the Ukrainian is a very difficult opponent for the WBC champion, which is why he avoided the meeting.
Hunter also praised the Ukrainian boxer, because he achieved his goal, despite the difficulties.
“I respect Usyk, because he wants to win, he wants to compete. He achieved everything. Usyk went to the Olympics, he wanted to be the cruiserweight champion, he wanted to be the heavyweight champion, he wanted all the belts. It should be like that. He would have fought faster if he was allowed to.
But nowadays the heavyweights have become too soft. They are heartbreaking, they are emotional, they have an ego. They can’t really stick. They have big heads and really think they can do something. They know when they really want something.
For me, Fury avoided the Usyk fight. We know that Usyk is a very tough opponent and he will give Fury problems. It’s not even a secret, especially now,” Hunter said in an interview on YouTube channel Seconds Out.
Earlier, the former world champion appreciated the current sports form of Oleksandr Usyk.
