Bellew Explains How Exactly Usyk Will Beat Fury

Former world champion Tony Bellew from the UK believes that WBA, WBO, IBO, and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) will defeat WBC champion Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) in their upcoming fight, and he explained exactly how.

"The work Usyk did against Gassiev in Russia was absolutely phenomenal. He didn’t take a single hit – that’s what he’s capable of when he steps into the ring.

Usyk adapts to every style he faces. Tyson may create some problems in the early stages of the fight due to his size, but ultimately Usyk will adapt, adjust, and control the pace of the fight. He will win by unanimous decision," said Bellew.

The fight between Usyk and Fury will take place on May 18th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
