Former world champion and current boxing expert at Sky Sports channel Briton Johnny Nelson called the main problem of compatriot heavyweight Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) on the eve of the fight with Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs).
By
opinion The observer, the Briton may have problems with motivation: “Fury is the kind of guy who just loves to fight. And his main problem is to find motivation. But now he will beat Usyk, and then what? What will he do? Will he look for a passer again, an opponent like Derek Chisora? You know, in boxing you always need a tough opponent, you always need a tough challenge. Yes, in Britain he will always have the option of meeting Anthony Joshua. But what other challenges does he have?
Nelson is known for having previously called Usyk an unremarkable boxer and claimed that he would have definitely beaten a Ukrainian in his best years. Suddenly, the expert spoke differently: “I think Fury will prove his dominance in heavyweight by defeating Usyk, who, by the way, is just a fantastic fighter.”
It is expected that the holders of all heavyweight belts Usyk and Fury will face each other in the first half of next year and determine the absolute world champion. All the same Nelson explained why Fury does not need “mind games” against Usyk.
Who do you think will win this fight? Johnny has had the answer for a long time.
