Joseph Parker: "Usyk is doing things that can cause problems for Fury"

Former world champion Joseph Parker (31-3, 21 KOs) is confident that WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) will be a difficult opponent for WBC belt holder Tyson Fury (33-0 -1, 24 KO).

"I hope they get along soon and finally fight on April 29. It will be nice to see them find a common language and organize a fight. I think Usyk could be a challenge for Fury because of his movement and fighting angles. He plays many tricks, he uses many combinations. It seems to me that he can show Tyson some of the things that might cause trouble. I think Fury will just use his reach and height. He can fight, box and move both at close range and at long range. So it’s an interesting fight,” Parker said.
