Having completed the showdown with Anthony Joshua with the second victory in a row, the Ukrainian WBA/WBO/IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) said before leaving the ring that he wants to fight the WBC title holder Briton in the next fight Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs). And if not with him, then with no one at all.
For greater fidelity, Usyk again turned to Fury already from the victorious post-match locker room.
Recall that last night in Saudi Arabia, Alexander again, as in September last year, surpassed Joshua by decision of the judges. But if then, in England, the verdict was unanimous, now the opinions of the arbitrators are divided: 116-112 and 115-113 for the Ukrainian and 115-113 for Joshua. Here are the hitting stats from the past rematch.
By the way, Fury has already reacted to the Usyk-Joshua rematch.
Anthony doesn’t care at all. He was clearly upset by the failure, although he gave Usyk credit.
