Usyk on Tyson vs. Paul Fight: "It's Okay"

In a comment to Seconds Out, the holder of the WBA, WBO, IBF, and IBO heavyweight (over 90,7 kg) titles and co-founder of Ready To Fight, Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs), shared his thoughts on the fight between blogger-boxer Jake Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) and former undisputed champion Mike Tyson.

"Tyson is a great man, known all over the world. Jake Paul is a young guy who wants to box and help young guys.

But it's a show, a big show. If people want to see a show, it's okay in my opinion," Usyk stated.

The bout between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will take place on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The event will be broadcast on Netflix.

On May 18th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in a fight for the undisputed heavyweight world championship, Oleksandr Usyk will meet WBC titleholder Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs).
