The Usyk battering campaign of English heavyweights has been such a devastating thing for the country of England and English boxing in recent years, truly.
He has literally wiped out all of England’s best heavyweights and absolutely battered his way through the UK over the years, a real wrecking machine Usyk, who is now the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
Although the Fury fights were very close – some thought Fury won at least one of them.
Speaking to the team at Talk Sport ahead of his latest planned battering of an English heavyweight, Daniel Dubois, Usyk said with class:
“First, I want to express gratitude to the UK and all my British opponents. First was Joe Joyce—British Lions, Ukrainian Ottoman, six rounds, like a semi-pro series. Thank you, my friend. Second was Derek Chisora, a great test when I was starting in the heavyweight division. Thank you, bro. Then Anthony Joshua, two fights. AJ, thank you, because after those fights, my career soared. Then Daniel Dubois, and Tyson Fury twice. Hey, my greedy belly bro, thank you, you’re great. Now we’re organizing a rematch with Daniel Dubois, and I think it’s great.”
Class act as always, Usyk.
His English-speaking is really coming along now as well, big respect.
That will only benefit him and the entire sport of boxing further.
He takes on IBF heavyweight champion ‘Dynamite’ Daniel Dubois next up in a super fight rematch on July 19th at Wembley stadium in London for all the belts.
Dubois has promised to knock him out this time.
Both are two class acts but when the bell goes expect a blood bath in the rematch.
