Alexander’s promoter drew parallels between Tyson’s fights with Vladimir and Francis
Alexander Krasyukpromoter of the WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO heavyweight champion Alexandra Usikashared his opinion about the defeat Vladimir Klitschko from Tyson Furydrawing parallels with the recent fight of the “Gypsy King” against Francis Ngannou.
“Everyone knows Tyson from the time of the fight with Klitschko. Wladimir lost to Fury because he had a bad night. He would beat him nine times out of ten. But certain factors came together that evening that led to his defeat. Tyson probably had the same thing in his fight with Ngannou.”
“On the other hand, Tyson did not treat Ngannou properly. He was a little arrogant with him. Fury didn’t take him seriously, so he looked behind him. He signed a contract to fight Usik, their fight was announced, so Tyson underestimated his opponent.”
The heavyweight championship fight for the IBF, IBO, WBO, WBA Super and The Ring titles between Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko took place in November 2015 in Dusseldorf, Germany. The Briton won by unanimous decision.
On the night of October 29, 2023, Fury defeated former UFC champion Francis Ngannou and won the Riyadh champion title. The fight, according to boxing rules, lasted all the allotted 10 rounds, as a result of which two judges gave the victory to Fury, one to Ngannou. In the third round, Francis knocked down Tyson, but the Briton managed to return to the fight.
Fury’s unification fight against Usyk was scheduled for December 23, but the “Gypsy King” will not have time to prepare for this time. It was reported that Fury received two cuts in his last fight with former UFC champion Francis Ngannou. According to the latest information, the long-awaited fight will take place in Riyadh in February 2024.
