Tyson Fury will win Alexandra Usika in a fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight boxing champion, a meeting between the British and Francis Ngannou should not be considered, Russian heavyweight tells Maxime Babanine .
On October 28 in Saudi Arabia, Fury defeated former UFC champion Ngannou by split decision in a 10-round boxing match. Fury was knocked down in the third round. Fury is WBC world champion, the 35-year-old Briton is undefeated in the professional ring.
– A terrible fight, I would call it differently, I just don’t want to embarrass myself and dishonor Fury. It seems like all of this might have been put in place on purpose. So let’s say, a knightly gesture for Usik to be in combat, for him to see that Fury supposedly can’t do anything, but in their personal meeting… It’s a double-edged sword.
— Is it worth considering the meeting with Ngannou in the context of Fury’s prospects against Usik?
– It is not worth the trouble. I think Fury will win. Fury has only lost to one boxer: me. And the revenge should only be with me,” Babanin told .
Babanin beat Fury in the final of the 2007 European Junior Championships.
