The former rival of the Ukrainian boxer Tony Bellew spoke about the postponement of the fight between the boxers.
Tyson Fury is trying to put pressure on Oleksandr Usik before the fight for the title of absolute world champion in the super heavyweight division. This is what the Ukrainian boxer’s former rival Tony Bellew thinks.
According to him, the Briton is trying to incapacitate his opponent through psychological games, but this will not prevent the Ukrainian from winning the match.
“Fury is trying to get into Usik’s head, as I did in my time, but he will not succeed. Alexander did not fall for it, he will win.
Usik is really good at speaking English, he just doesn’t understand the language very well. I’m his biggest fan,” Belew was quoted as saying by talkSPORT.
We remind you that the Usyk-Fury fight, scheduled for February 17, has been postponed to May 18. The fight will take place in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Let’s remember that the promoter said before if Fury would retire so Usik wouldn’t be able to fight.
