Usyk vs. Fury 2 Result: Wladimir Klitschko Predicts Two Possible Endings

Former world champion Wladimir Klitschko shared his thoughts on the upcoming rematch between Ukrainian WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) and Britain’s Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs).

– Will this be a different fight than their first encounter?

– Yes, I think it will be... almost, because we can't look into the future — only my brother can do that. But I'm confident that the next fight between Fury and Usyk will either be short because Oleksandr will knock Tyson out, or it will be extremely challenging for both athletes — even tougher than the first bout.

We saw that up until the ninth round, the fight was very tough. But I'm proud of Oleksandr. He achieved everything at cruiserweight, and when he moved up to heavyweight, I had questions about how he would handle it, and so did he. It's a completely different environment there — the size, the weight.

Usyk will go down in history as one of the most unique athletes in boxing.

The rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will take place on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
