Former world champion Paul Malignaggi shares his expectations from the fight for the title of absolute champion.

Alexander Usik was upset and annoyed after another postponement of the fight for the title of absolute champion of the world, but did not show it publicly. Opinion of former world champion Paul Malignaggi.

According to him, the Ukrainian carefully studied the preliminary manipulations on the part of Tyson Fury, and therefore did not want to play the Briton’s games.

“I think Usik’s team understands that outside the ring Fury does not even squirm, but chooses chess moves. All these are manipulations, mind games, a tactical move, and nothing otherwise. It was quite a disappointment. Usik is a typical boxer from Eastern Europe. He only reacted with a smile, which means he drew on the experience of Vladimir Klitschko, Deontay Wilder and other men who emotions don’t allow them to show their best in Fury. I believe that Usyk knows this, but you can’t tell from the outside. But “the rest of Usyk’s team seems a little upset. In general, Usyk is also upset, but I think that as a professional, as a veteran, as a world champion, he knows how to deal with it correctly,” Malignaggi told ProBox TV.

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.

Earlier, Usik’s former rival Tony Bellew said Fury couldn’t get inside the Ukrainian’s head.
