The famous British boxer praised the Ukrainian twice absolute world champion.
Despite Oleksandr Usyk’s achievements in the heavyweight division, Dillian Whyte does not believe that the Ukrainian can dominate the heavyweight division. The boxer himself spoke about it.
At the same time, the Briton admitted his mistake and praised the two-time absolute world champion for the work he did in the fight against Tyson Fury.
“I congratulated Alexander after the overall fight, he fought Tyson very well. He did his job smartly and perfectly. When he moved up to heavyweight, I didn’t think he would be a serious contender. Watch his first fights against Witherspoon and Chisora - his forced retreat I know he’s a good boxer, but I didn’t think he would dominate like that,” White said in a commentary on iFL TV.
Let’s remember that earlier another famous British boxer, Derek Chisora, predicted for Usik’s rematch with Fury.
