Former world featherweight champion Josh Warrington has thrown his support behind Oleksandr Usyk in the upcoming mega undisputed fight against Tyson Fury. Warrington believes Usyk’s superior “boxing skills and defence” will give him the edge over the Gypsy King. The clash is set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on February 17, with both fighters risking their belts and unbeaten records.
Warrington, initially leaning towards Fury, expressed concerns about Fury’s recent performance against Francis Ngannou, suggesting that he didn’t resemble the Tyson Fury of old. Despite Fury’s size and height advantage, Warrington believes Usyk’s boxing prowess will prove decisive.
Meanwhile, Fury’s father, John Fury, acknowledges Usyk’s class and tricky style but is confident in his son’s ability to maintain his unbeaten record. John emphasizes the need for adjustments in Tyson’s camp to counter Usyk’s intelligence, stating that the straightforward approach used against Ngannou won’t be effective. Despite potential challenges, John Fury trusts in Tyson’s instincts to prevail.
As the boxing world anticipates this high-stakes showdown, opinions among experts, including former champions like Warrington and John Fury, highlight the uncertainty surrounding the outcome and the intriguing clash of styles between the two fighters.
