Top-dog promoter and boxing guru Aleksandr Krassyuk, the advising brains behind Ready To Fight, is jazzed about the prospects of his heavyweight champ Oleksandr Usyk squaring off against Deontay Wilder.
"Timing's a bit off to jab at this topic. But hey, Wilder's a heavy-hitter, a real knockout artist in the super heavyweight ring. A rumble with him? That's gold for any boxing fan, and I'm all in for that showdown. It's a clash of titans we're talking about. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. It all hinges on Usyk's dance with Fury in their upcoming rematch. And don't lose sight of the Wilder-Joshua brawl come December 23.
Parker? He's a slick, technical brawler. He could really mess up a power puncher who's less about finesse and more about force. We've seen it before; it's Wilder's Achilles heel - he's a powerhouse but not exactly a ring tactician.
And Joshua? He's up against the wall, facing Wallin, one of the dark horses in the division. Wallin's a southpaw with an awkward style, and Joshua's trying to bounce back from a couple of tough losses. It's a rocky road back to glory.
Wilder and Joshua are stepping into the ring for their own big-ticket bouts on December 23," Krassyuk laid it out for Betway.
Mark your calendars: Deontay Wilder throws down with Joseph Parker, and Anthony Joshua tangles with Otto Wallin on December 23. Oleksandr Usyk is set to rumble with Tyson Fury on February 17.
