The Swede considers the “Gypsy King” the favorite in the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion
Famous Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin made a prediction for the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion between Alexander Usik And Tyson Fury. He believes that the “Gypsy King” will win.
“I think Fury will win, I still think he’s the favorite. He didn’t look very good in his last fight, but he’s still a very good fighter. Fury is a big guy, bigger than Usik. But Alexander will give him a very good fight,” Wallin said.
“Usyk was actually knocked out in his last fight with Dubois. I believe that it was a legal blow that Daniel dealt him. Usik just lay on the floor and complained. In the fight with Gassiev, he also complained about blows to the body. I think that’s his weakness and Fury knows it.”
In 2019, Wallin lost to Fury via unanimous decision. Otto’s next fight will be against former world champion Anthony Joshua on December 23 in Riyadh.
The fight for the title of absolute heavyweight champion between WBC heavyweight title holder Fury and WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO world champion Usyk will officially take place on February 17 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
