Bellew on Usyk Fight: «If There Are No Controversial Decisions»

Former cruiserweight world champion (up to 90.7 kg) Tony Bellew has shared his thoughts on how the bout between WBA, WBO, IBO, and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) and WBC champion Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) might end.

«Fury has shown that he can be hit and hurt even by boxers who are far from Usyk's level, and that is concerning ahead of such a precise bout with a fighter.

Fury will try to impose his size and strength, but I just see Usyk as too good; he will win on points to add yet another impressive victory to his already incredible record. If there are no controversial decisions from the officials, then Usyk wins on points,» Bellew said.

Usyk and Fury will meet on May 18 in Saudi Arabia.
