Former world boxing leader Andre Ward disagrees with promoter Eddie Hearn’s recent comment that “Bronze Bomber” Deontay Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) will not be able to win a round against the IBF / WBA / world champion. WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs).
According to the American, the brutal blow of his compatriot knockout will still find a target in the course of the battle.
Usyk is interested in taking on the popular ex-WBC champion in his next fight, provided he beats Robert Helenius on October 15.
“Yes, yes, yes,” wrote Andre in
Twitter. “That right hand will someday hit the target. Wilder will take the rounds.”
Fury or Wilder? Usyk was asked who he would like to fight next
The Ukrainian over the past year twice in a row defeated the main fighter of Hearn – Briton Anthony Joshua. So Eddie has a reason to praise Mustache.
Yesterday, Wilder suddenly admitted that he had previously avoided the fight with Joshua.
