Warren: Fury is very smart, he will beat Usyk at his own game

The fight for the title of absolute world champion will take place on May 18

Frank Warrenco-promoter of the WBC title holder Tyson Furyconfident in the British victory over the world champion according to WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO Alexander Usik. Warren urged not to pay attention to the fight of the “Gypsy King” with Francis Ngannou.

“Tyson got knocked down against Ngannou, but he did what a champion does, which is come back into the fight. He has a good chin, he recovered and won the fight. I wouldn’t pay too much attention to this fight. Tyson probably had his worst performance as champion.”

“A few years ago, when he fought Klitschko, it was pure boxing. “He went into the ring and gave his opponent a boxing lesson in the backyard of his own home in Germany.”

“After the second fight with Wilder he changed his style, he goes forward and throws punches. This thing about him not being a big puncher. Go and see how many knockouts he has on his record. You only stop when you can’t take it anymore. That’s what he does.”

“I think this is exactly what will happen with Usyk. Tyson will beat Alexander at his own game. Because he’s very, very smart.”

The unification fight between Usik and Fury will take place on May 18. The list of other fights that will take place as part of the boxing evening in Saudi Arabia is also known. Among them is the fight between Ukrainian Daniel Lapin and Portuguese Octavio Pudivitra for the WBA Continental light heavyweight title.

The event will be hosted by Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The WBC proposes to reform the judges for the reporting fight, increasing their number to 5-6 people. Penalties for boxers who refuse to fight are $10 million.

WBC President Mauricio Suleiman announced that an agreement had been concluded between the boxers for a re-fight. The WBO is also ready to sanction the second fight. It was reported that the fate of a possible rematch depends on the holding of the first fight. Fury said that the contract has a mandatory rematch clause, and a re-fight with Usyk could take place in October.
