The WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk believes that his fight with the “absolute” super middleweight Saul Alvarez can only be interesting from a financial point of view.

The Ukrainian said this at a press conference regarding the successful defense of titles in rematch from Joshua.

" I will make a weight of 90.7 and Alvarez will have a maximum of 87. This fight is interesting only because you can earn good money on it.. In terms of boxing, I don't know.. I think it will be interesting for the fans to watch him - a little more guy and a little less guy. You can earn big money in this fight,"

In turn, Canelo expressed his willingness to fight Oleksandr Usyk.



Recall that the Ukrainian named two conditions for a possible trilogy with Anthony Joshua.

The 35-year-old Usyk has 20 wins (13 by knockout) in 20 fights. He held four of them in the heavyweight division.. Before that, Alexander became the absolute world champion in the cruiserweight (weight category up to 90.7 kg), having won all four of the most prestigious belts there..

On account of the 31-year-old Alvarez 57 wins (39 by knockout) in 60 fights in the professional ring. He also has one loss and two draws..
