This success earned Usik the status of absolute world heavyweight champion.
“I predicted a knockout in the 9th round. I said it in every interview, but now I’m a little disappointed. The judge deprived Usik of the knockout. Usually in such cases the judges act faster. In another fight, the fight would happen.
Fury put in a great performance and I have the utmost respect for him. The atmosphere was tense but friendly. Let Tyson recover and we will have a rematch,” Krasyuk said after the fight.
