Johnny Nelson has revealed what he’s heard from inside Oleksandr Usyk’s camp for the huge clash with Tyson Fury.
Fury and Usyk collide in just two weeks to crown a first undisputed heavyweight champion since 1999.
According to Johnny Nelson, the Ukrainian has been ‘manhandling’ his sparring partners, who are all heavyweights as he prepares for the huge undisputed fight.
He said: “I know [Usyk] had five heavyweight sparring partners. I spoke to three of them, and they said he got stronger as the rounds went on, and he manhandled all five of them.”

Fury last fought in October when he put in a lacklustre showing against boxing debutant Francis Ngannou, climbing off of the canvas to win via a split-decision.
This will be Usyk’s sixth fight at heavyweight. He cleaned up the Cruiserweight division before and is just one win away from being an undisputed heavyweight champion.
Who will be crowned the king of the division? Let us know in the comments.
