Alexander USYK: “Of course, the overthrow surprised me too”

Current WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight champion Alexander Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) offers his take on the victorious fight between Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) and Francis Ngannou (0-1, 0). expressed. KO) – former UFC champion.

“I was under the impression that Fury was playing. I don’t think he was acting like he was sleeping, but I will be training 100%. But listen, this is boxing. Maybe it was the element of surprise. Maybe. I think it was a stunt. See you on December 23rd.”

I don’t know if falling made me safer. I have no idea. Ngannou is an MMA world champion and has a powerful punch. Moreover, there is the element of surprise. Maybe Tyson Fury didn’t take it seriously: “Oh, he’s an MMA fighter, blah blah blah.” I don’t know.

Of course, I was surprised that it was demolished. I looked at him and said: “Oh, Francis! Please be careful!” I said: “Tyson! Swallow, hit, hit, move, hit!” “He said so,” said Usyk, who watched the fight with Cristiano Ronaldo.

As you know, there is an agreement between Usik and Fury to fight for the title of absolute world champion, which can take place on December 23 this year.
