Ukrainian shows gentlemanly behavior.

WBA, WBO and WBC heavyweight world champion Alexander Usik remembers the fight with Tyson Fury.

The Ukrainian said he didn’t want to knock out the Briton, as he was worried about his opponent’s health.

“I don’t want to hurt him. I’m just boxing. I don’t need to do that. I know what boxing is. I know he’ll go home to his children, to his wife. It’s bad when you hurt your opponent. .

Do I think the referee can stop the fight? I don’t think so. Would I have finished Fury if I had 20 seconds left in the ninth round? All these are just thoughts – if only possible, “said Usyk.

In May, Usyk defeated Fury by split decision (115-112, 114-113, 113-114).

We remind you that Fury showed his form a month before the rematch with Usyk.
