After beating both” Usyk listed comparison between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury
Usyk has beaten Joshua twice and most recently handed Fury his first professional loss in their historic undisputed heavyweight world title clash
Oleksandr usyk as compared Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury after beating both of the Brits.
Usyk won the undisputed heavyweight world titles last month when he beat Fury in their historic fight. Their rematch was expected to take place in October but has since been pushed back to December 21. The Ukrainian has two wins over ‘AJ’ as he won the unified belts from the Brit in September 2021 and defended them in their rematch the following year.
Usyk gave a funny comparison when talking about his wins against Joshua and Fury as he told Three Knockdown Rule. “Anthony Joshua has classy boxing. Greedy Belly, my friend Tyson Fury. It’s like sparkling water, when you open it without shaking it’s good. If you shake it, it [blows]. Sparkling water is Tyson Fury and still water is Anthony Joshua. Tyson’s arms are like two metres, like a rope.”

Usyk admitted he doesn’t want to think about boxing at the moment after spending eight months preparing for Fury. Their fight was pushed back several times and cancelled on just days notice when Fury was cut above his eye in February. Usyk surprisingly snubbed Fury whilst revealing the hardest puncher he has ever faced.
“I would say toughest fight, yes, but I think biggest punch, no,” Usyk said of Fury.” When asked who hit him the hardest, Usyk replied: “Derek Chisora, very tough guy. With Derek, I don’t remember which hand if it was left or fight but I would block it and it would be like a baseball bat. It was very dangerous.
Usyk is expected to lose his undisputed status and be stripped of his IBF belt in the coming weeks so the title can be on the line for Joshua’s UK return in September. The Ukrainian’s manager disagrees with the governing body’s decision and wants to see all four belts on the line again for Usyk and Fury’s second fight.
