🥊Heavyweight who once shocked the world makes bold Fury vs Usyk prediction

Posted by

Hasim Rahman famously shocked Lennox Lewis in a huge upset in South Africa in 2001.

The heavyweight division has stagnated dramatically in recent times but there have been talks of a huge Saudi boxing event featuring the best heavyweights on the planet, with Fury vs Usyk mooted.

Rahman has shared his thoughts on how the fight would play out.

Speaking to FightHype he said:

“I think Tyson Fury’s biggest advantage is that most heavyweights are really slow, and he uses the boxing against them.” 

“If he goes against a boxer, like a guy like Steve Cunningham, well Usyk is in his prime in the heavyweight division and I think he can beat Tyson Fury. 

“He’s going to use spurts of boxing and do that the whole 12 rounds, and I think Tyson walking around all 200 pounds, he’s going to gas out. Usyk will make him exhausted and probably knock him out.”

How do you see the fight going if, and when it’s made? Let us know in the comments.
