JAKARTA - Oleksandr Usyk's fight against Tyson Fury will be held in Saudi Arabia in May 2024.
Boxing lovers outperform Fury over Usyk. You see that the public sees Fury as having an advantage in terms of height. The 35-year-old boxer's shot range is also considered more effective.
However, that advantage was immediately denied by Usyk's former opponent, Tony Bellew. Instead, the Ukrainian should be more favorite to be the winner.
Bellew assessed that the left-handed boxer's counterattack would be key to Fury's destruction.
"From a technical point of view, Tyson Fury has always struggled to face smaller and very bad players in terms of counterattacks."
"If you fall behind against Fury, he loses. A beginner boxer, Francis Ngannou, counterattacks against Fury and gives him various kinds of problems."
"What I mean is a raw and complete beginner in Francis Ngannou. He gave a crazy attack. Nobody thought a boxer with a 0-0 boxing record forced the heavyweight world champion to be cornered."
"Some people even thought he (Ngannou) won. You can't deny it," Bellew told Spinbet.

Fury and Usyk are supposed to be scheduled to enter the ring in February 2024. However, their duel was rescheduled because Fury suffered a serious injury to his temple during a match.
Now, England is preparing for the fight on May 18, 2024. However, Usyk's manager and promoter, Alex Krassyuk, is skeptical about the fight not to back down.
You see, Fury has the title to be able to evade the fight again.
"I don't have a guarantee that the first fight will happen. That man (Tyson Fury) has stepped down four times in a row."
"We even decided to stop all jokes and criticism. So, if there's anything else we can do to help him get into the ring with Usyk, we're ready to do it," Krassyuk told World Boxing News.
Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will face to fight for the undisputed world heavyweight title.
