Alexander Krasyuk, the promoter of Ukrainian boxer Alexander Usik, said that Briton Tyson Fury could beat his client in five years. ProBox TV.
“If Fury wants to beat him, he will have to wait about five years, while Alexander will be at his peak for another two or three years. He is 36 years old, a golden period for the heavyweight,” said Krasyuk.

The fight ended with an early victory for the Ukrainian: in the ninth round, the Ukrainian knocked out his opponent – his opponent did not have time to reach the referee’s count. At the same time, in the fifth round, Usik missed a strong blow to the groin area, which was declared illegal (below the belt level), which led to a long break, which the Ukrainian boxer received. He regained consciousness by lying on the ground for a few minutes. At the same time, the referee did not deduct any points from the Englishman. Promoter Frank Warren spoke of the need for a rematch.
