The fight between Fury and Usyk is scheduled for May 18.
“Usyk won’t be able to fool me in the ring. He is a serious competitor. It would be stupid to underestimate Usyk. I train very seriously and do everything that depends on me. I respect Usik. I respect him as a person, as a boxer. He has impressive achievements – he became an Olympic champion and had success in the heavyweight division.
My next fight is not against a guy who has little experience. No, Usyk is a real test. He is as serious a competitor as Holyfield, for example. Usyk has excellent technique and has defeated very strong boxers. And it is also important that he is very persistent. Whoever is most hungry to win will win our fight,” Fury said in an interview with Queensberry Promotions.
