Former WBC heavyweight title holder Tyson Fury declared that the WBC, IBO, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion Alexander Usik was able to give a decent boxing lesson To Daniel Dubois And Anthony JoshuaThe “Gypsy King” spoke to the Ukrainian after the fight between the two Britons.
“You gave them both a real boxing lesson. I give you credit, you did well. That’s what boxing skills do. Skills pay the bills. You know what I mean?” Fury told Usyk.
Usyk defeated Anthony Joshua twice by decision. Later, Oleksandr knocked out Dubois in August 2023. The Ukrainian’s promoter Oleksandr Krasyuk said that he would not mind organizing a rematch for the Briton.
Dubois defeated former world champion Joshua in his last fight. Daniel knocked AJ down three times and knocked out his opponent in the fifth round. Dubois defended the IBF title, which he received after Usyk relinquished it.
Alexander was among the guests of honor at the Dubois vs. Joshua fight. Also near the ring was his future opponent, former WBC world champion Tyson Fury.
Oleksandr Usyk left Ukraine this week and will set up his training camp in Valencia to prepare for his rematch with Tyson Fury.
Let us recall that on the night of May 19, Usyk inflicted the first defeat of his professional career on Tyson Fury in a fight that took place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). The victory was awarded to the Ukrainian by a split decision of the judges: 115-112, 113-114 and 114-113.
Usyk and Fury have reached an agreement for a rematch. The “Gypsy King” has officially activated the rematch option. The second fight between Alexander and Tyson will take place on December 21, 2024, in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman said he would seek the introduction of video replays in this fight.
“You taught them both a proper boxing lesson!” 👀
