A prominent British promoter spoke about a second possible fight between Ukrainian and British boxers.
Oleksandr Usyk will be the favorite in a possible rematch with Tyson Fury. Well-known British promoter Eddie Hearn thinks so.
According to the functionary, the victory in the first match and the title of absolute champion gave the Ukrainian confidence.
“Usyk is probably confident in his ability, and I think he is the favorite.
The rematch should take place because the first match was good. I believe Usyk won, even in a very even competition, but a lot of people think he did it with more confidence,” Boxing News 24/7 quotes Hearn.
We remind you that Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury by split decision and became the first absolute heavyweight champion since 1999.
Previously, a prominent coach explained why the Usik-Fury rematch would not happen on time.
