Exclusive: Oleksandr Usyk Shares Inside Scoop on Tyson Fury After Their Encounter During Dubois vs. Joshua Knockout!.Huyen

Oleksandr Usyk has opened up on his chat with Tyson Fury after the duo met while watching Daniel Dubois’ emphatic win over Anthony Joshua at Wembley on Saturday night.

Usyk has beaten Fury, Dubois and AJ over the course of his career so far and was among the A-listers to flock to the capital for the big event in London.

The Ukrainian beat Fury earlier this year but the duo are set for a rematch on December 21.

Usyk, talking to Boxing King Media, is adamant that he’ll add another victory to his collection.

But he also talked up his relationship with Fury, too, saying his 36-year-old is like a brother to him.

“A little bit [they spoke] yeah. ‘How are you’ blah blah blah,” he said.

“This is my friend. Of course, he’s like my brother.

“I too love my London fans. When I win the second time with Tyson Fury, I don’t know what’s next, I want to rest with my family.”

Usyk also provided his assessment after Dubois’ magnificent knockout win.

The Ukrainian believes Joshua’s footwork was a ‘problem’ during the clash, adding: “[I am] not shocked because it’s boxing. Daniel Dubois today was better.

“Anthony had one problem because this position [leaning back] is dangerous.

“If you want to step back, do it like this [by moving your feet], not like this [leaning], this is dangerous.”

Usyk’s promoter, Alexander Krassyuk, had the same complaint about Joshua.

He also believes everything possible went wrong for the 34-year-old, who will now go back to the drawing board.

“The footwork was the issue, the mentality was the issue, everything was the issue,”Krassyuk said.

“I thought I was seeing the man who had the face of AJ but who was completely different inside.

“He didn’t look the way we expected him to look, did you see his right hand?

“It was all the way [down] on his right chest, so his chin was up.

“It was a fairytale for any boxer, not just for Dubois, for everyone.”

Joshua has faced calls to retire in the short time since his defeat.

But the Watford-born star has no plans to hang up his gloves just yet, with the veteran set to engage Dubois in a rematch.

Dubois, however, would prefer to face Usyk instead having previously lost to the heavyweight star last year.
