The Ukrainian world champion is intensively training his core muscles before the fight for the title of absolute world champion.
Oleksandr Usyk has shown how he is working on what he thought was weakness by training his abdominal muscles ahead of his fight with Tyson Fury.
The Ukrainian boxer showed how he plans to withstand body attacks from the Briton, who may take similar actions in the ring on May 18.
Let’s note that the talk about the alleged weakness of the WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion increased after the prohibited punch of Daniel Dubois in the previous fight.
Another Ukrainian fighter Dmitry Mitrofanov is helping Usik in his preparation.

We remind you that the Usyk-Fury fight, scheduled for February 17, was postponed to May 18 due to the cut of the Briton. The match will take place in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Earlier, Usik talked about a new date for the Fury fight.
