Niko called the Ukrainian boxer a modern version of his grandfather.

“My grandfather and Usik's birthday on one day (January 17 - approx. They have the same height, their weight is also approximately the same, almost identical. Therefore, when I think about the Usyk, I see in it a modern version of my grandfather - not in terms of skills, but in terms of dimensions and everything else. And I believe that it is ideal in size for Hevivet "

Ali also suggested that Mohamed would dominate the heavy division and in the present.

“You know, many thought that Tyson Fury was too big, that Usyk could not cope with him. But Alexander did just a fantastic work. I didn't think he would win. I'm on the side of Fury, you know, but Usyk spent wonderful battles. And I believe that he is an ideal heavyweight. This only confirms that my grandfather would also dominate this division in our time.

I may be blessed, but I think so sincerely. I am a fan of boxing, I like to watch both old fights and modern boxing.

And I think that my grandfather would still remain at the top and today "
