The American boxer still believes that the big guy will always beat the little guy in the heavyweights.
Titled American boxer Andre Ward shares his opinion on a possible fight between WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and WBA, WBO and IBF title holder Alexander Usyk.
According to the American, the favorite of the fight is the “Gypsy King”.
“We’ve been saying on the air for years that a good big fighter will always beat a good little fighter. I believe that will be the case. Usyk should never be underestimated, but Tyson Fury is not Anthony Joshua.
Fury has amateur experience. Tyson is big, he has a big reach and he knows how to use it. There is no contradiction in Fury’s style. He knows how to box, but at the same time he grunts. We’ve seen him step up to the canvas against a puncher like Deontay Wilder and land powerful punches that would knock most fighters out. Fury found a way to get back up, bit his mouthguard, stuck to his fight plan and won.
I doubt there will be any difference in his fight with Usyk, but it’s an intriguing fight because of the skill of both boxers. However, they are different in size,” Boxing News 24 quoted Ward as saying.
