“Fury needs to throw mud.” Usyk about Tyson, Chisor and the help of the Klitschko brothers

The unified world heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) gave
interview for YouTube channel USYK17.

Alexander spoke about a trip to London to fight his potential opponent, WBC champion Briton Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs). The Ukrainian champion spoke about the British ex-challenger Derek Chisora ​​(33-13, 24 KOs), spoke about Fury’s attitude to trash talk and answered the question about the help of ex-heavyweight champions from Ukraine Vitaliy and Wladimir Klitschko.

– Sasha, you went to the Fury-Chisora ​​fight. Was it a trip to see the fight, or were there other organizational issues?

– There were organizational issues. Promoters Egis Klimas and Alexander Krasyuk, they are working on it. My job is training. Yes, we watched the fight. Tyson Fury had a beautiful sparring session for himself while still making money. I entered the ring. We announced that we would box. Then the organizers have questions and Tyson Fury. And God forbid that we all went through the camp and we did not have any injuries.

How would you rate his fight? It seems to me that Chisora ​​was “hard” with you?

– Chisora ​​with me was the best of the best. He was very prepared, he had a very big motivation. Here Derek just made a lot of money, despite the fact that he normally grabbed it in his head. I think that some of this money will go to the restoration, if Derek does it. Yes, Tyson Fury did it in order to breathe, to box, to see what condition he is in.

• Tyson Fury: “I want to knock out Usyk quickly, he can’t take Chisora ​​anymore”

– When you had a face-off, you had such an expression on your face, as if you were savoring or wanting to eat.

– Yes, of course, I looked at him with a great desire to box. I looked at him with great desire to go against him in the ring. He, as always, emotionally threw mud. Generally purple on it. I put such a wall in front of me that the dirt flies off and gets on it. I don’t take it for granted at all.

Didn’t any of the words catch you?

How can he get me? He calls himself a rabbit there, a bum, or someone else. I joked myself. When they say to me: “You’re like a tiger.” I say, “No, I’m a white rabbit type.” Bum? Well, he is wrong, I have a house and a residence permit, all thanks to God. Something else there that I beat some bodybuilder … well, these are just his words. Psychologically, he cannot restrain himself, he needs to throw mud. I think that’s how he protects himself. Specifically yourself. He can’t handle his emotions, and he gives them away. Cameras turn off – and it’s a completely different person. That is, when the cameras are on, it’s Tyson Fury, and when the cameras are off, it’s Luke Fury.

– Now there are some negotiations, and if they are, at what stage are they?

“I don’t go there at all. I’m training. My task now is to get in good shape. I think that it is already very, very close, a couple of days – and the team will be preparing to leave for the camp. I don’t think about it at all. That’s absolutely. They will agree, they will not agree – in any way they will agree with someone. You need to be in shape. Everything.

• Oleksandr Usyk hinted at the end of his career

Is Fury your toughest opponent on paper?

Well, everyone is talking about it. Dimensions, he has a belt, he has zero in the defeat column. That is, of course, this is a very complex guy. And he’s not as bad as he’s acting. He is quite a cunning person. And tricky in sports, I know. I know how he psychologically begins to crush his opponents and all that. A lot of people say, like Usyk, it will be good, because he doesn’t understand a lot of what he says. I absolutely understand everything he says. But I just don’t take it all on myself.

– Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir Klitschko, who boxed with both Anthony (Joshua) and Fury, did they give something like advice?

– Of course, I communicate with both brothers. Of course, Vladimir suggests some sporting moments more. And Vitaly Vladimirovich – he is like an older brother, he is there some kind of life and also sports … But I have my own team and coach. Of course, what people tell me, I hear. But whether or not to use it in my work – I’m already looking at whether it will be useful for me or not. And I use it. Yes, a lot of people tell me something that I need to do. But my coaching staff, thank God, is good. I listen to them.
