The Briton’s mentor spoke of his ward’s confidence ahead of the rematch with the Ukrainian.
Andy Lee, a member of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury’s team, has spoken about his condition ahead of his rematch with WBC, WBA and WBO title holder Oleksandr Usyk.
According to him, the British boxer accepted the defeat from the Ukrainian in the first fight calmly, despite the fact that it was his debut in his career.
“Tyson was pragmatic about the first defeat in his career. It was a very close fight, then Fury said: “I have to be better, I have to concentrate and win the rematch, so everything is simple with those word, but we all know what everyone is doing is wrong.
I could say my confidence was shaken, but it wasn’t about Tyson. If anyone can turn things around, it’s him. Fury is an incredible fighter, an incredible person. He has overcome so many obstacles in life that he didn’t even consider the fight against Usik his main fight. His fights are tougher, tougher tests, both in boxing and in life. So this loss is nothing for him,” BoxingScene quoted Lee as saying.
The rematch between Usik and Fury will take place on December 21 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Fury previously named a title he would never fight for.
