Oleksandr Usyk Names His Toughest British Opponent

The Ukrainian WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) shared his thoughts on the hardest fight he has had against a British rival.

“I think it was the first fight with Tyson Fury. He’s a big guy—and an excellent fighter,” Usyk said.

In 2024, Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury twice: by split decision in May and by unanimous decision in December.
