Oleksandr Usyk Names the Toughest Fight Between Joshua and Fury

The holder of the WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles, Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs), was asked which of his fights against British former champions Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) and Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) was the toughest.

"I think the second fight with Joshua was the hardest because the war started, there were a lot of emotions, I lost weight. Now I feel good, I have motivation, everything is fine," said Usyk.

The Ukrainian defeated Joshua in September 2021 and again in August 2022 by unanimous and split decisions, respectively.

On May 18, Usyk defeated Fury by split decision, becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion since 1999. In their rematch on December 21, Oleksandr won by unanimous decision.
