The legendary American boxer Evander Holyfield told how the Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk is able to defeat Briton Tyson Fury in the fight for the title of absolute world champion.

" If he fights Fury, he will do it.

When I look at this fight, I see two good fighters, but Usyk has faster hands. If the big guy (Fury - approx.. ) will not make the little guy (Usyk - approx.. ) fight in his style, then lose. That's the reason I moved up to heavyweight. I realized that I would be faster than all rivals.

It matters a lot. If a fighter has fast hands and good combinations, then it is difficult to stop him.. At one time, I had a significant advantage in this direction over the guys who were taller and bigger than me.. They just throw one or two punches and don't like being hit back," com.

At the same time, the veteran noted that Usyk should not expect an easy walk, because the big boxers have significantly increased in speed and skills..

The winner of the fight between Usyk and Fury will become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. The Ukrainian boxer has already held this title in the heavyweight division. Fury holds the WBC belt while Usyk holds the WBO, WBA, IBO and IBF titles..

The date of the fight has not yet been confirmed..
