Derek told how you can stop the Ukrainian champion
Famous British heavyweight Derek Chisora said that he gave advice Anthony Joshua And Daniel Dubois before their fights with Alexander Usikbut they did not listen and lost.
“I showed everyone the template [как драться с Усиком], but they chose not to do it the way I did. You have to be in shape, take advantage of the difference in size, that’s all. I went up to AJ and said, “Make sure you do this after sparring,” but he didn’t. I said the same thing to DuBois and he didn’t do it either.”
“The thing is, with Usyk, when he starts moving his arm up and down, you have problems. When he raises his hand, just hit him.”
“Usyk is very good, he’s amazing. But if you let him be a great fighter, he’ll outwork you.”
Chisora became Usik’s second heavyweight opponent. The fight took place in October 2020, the Ukrainian won by unanimous decision. After the fight with Derek, Alexander defeated Joshua twice, and in August 2023 he knocked out Dubois.
Usik, the WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO world champion, will next fight against WBC heavyweight title holder Tyson Fury. The fight is officially scheduled for February 17 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
