Alexander Usik’s former opponent is choosing between the Ukrainian boxer and the legendary Holyfield.
Alexander Usik is the best heavyweight in the history of world boxing. Former world cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew thinks so.
According to the British boxer, no cruiserweight can compare to the Ukrainian, not even the legendary Evander Holyfield.
“This guy is the greatest heavyweight that ever lived. There’s no heavyweight in the history of this sport that can beat Oleksandr Usyk. I don’t care who we’re talking about. Evander Holyfield might have thought of him, but he’ll do it I won’t he was caught.” I can,” Bellew said on The Matchroom Boxing Podcas.
We remind you that Usik and Bellew fought in 2018, the Ukrainian won by knockout in the eighth round, which ended the Briton’s career. After this fight, Usik moved up to the heavyweight division, where he also became the world champion.
We remind you that Usik previously topped the rating of heavyweight boxers from the BoxRec portal.
