Warren: "Usyk is a Smart and Strong Opponent"

Promoter of WBC champion Tyson Fury, Frank Warren, says that Oleksandr Usyk, his athlete's next opponent, will not fall for the Brit's mind games.

"Usyk is a tough opponent. Undefeated as a professional with a flawless amateur career. I don’t think he can be overcome with mind games. He’s not foolish enough to fall for that.

After the first gong, it will all depend on who can control the situation, who can impose their style. Tyson needs to impose his style. I think he’s capable of doing that. It will be similar to the second fight against Wilder," Frank explained.

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