Manager of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) Bob Arum called the most dangerous opponent for his ward.

In his opinion, the Ukrainian holder of the WBO, WBA, IBO and IBF titles Oleksandr Usyk has the most chances to defeat the Briton..

" I think that Usyk has the best chance of all,” said the head of Top Rank in an interview with FightHype..

The promoter also expressed the hope that Usyk-Fury will be announced as early as next week..

" We listen to proposals from all over the world. I hope that next week we will announce the fight. The fight could take place in the Middle East or at Wembley in front of 95,000 people " We gathered 65 thousand fans at the Fury-Chisora \u200b\u200bfight, and it was a full house. We were allowed to let only 60,000 people into the stadium,"

Recall that after his victory over Derek Chisora, Fury defiantly challenged the Ukrainian to fight. Alexander came closer to the ring and the future rivals had a duel of views.

The fight is expected to take place in early 2023.. The parties have not yet signed a contract for the fight, so it has not been officially approved..

The 35-year-old Usyk has 20 wins (13 by knockout) in 20 fights. He held four of them at heavyweight..

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 the night of August 21, 2022, Alexander defeated Briton Anthony Joshua in a rematch, which took place in the city of Jeddah (Saudi Arabia). Thus, the Ukrainian defended all the titles taken from AJ last fall, and also won the vacant belt of The Ring magazine..

The 34-year-old Fury has 33 wins (24 by KO) and one draw.
