Oleksandr Usyk leaves Tyson Fury with daunting nine-word message after rescheduling their fight
Oleksandr Usyk was already considered the world’s leading cruiserweight when he entered the cruiserweight World Boxing Super Series in 2017.
Not unlike against Huck, Usyk – who similarly in the future would travel to London to outpoint fellow Olympic gold medallist“His performance against Breidis – you mustn’t forget the levels in that tournament,” Kalle Sauerland, who alongside his brother Nisse oversaw each edition of the WBSS, told talkSPORT.com.
“You mustn’t forget Usyk was on the road for the whole of the WBSS. Fighting Huck in Berlin, and Breidis in Riga. That’s massive credit to him. Where Usyk had defeated Huck and Breidis, the heavy-handed Gassiev had stopped Wlodarczyk and Dorticos. “Gassiev at the time was a very, very dangerous opponent. In his prime, and he nullified him very early in that fight when he took a punch and gave it straight back – respect shown in a positive sense in the ring, and it gave him that freedom to use his big shots, so he absolutely had an absolute blinding performance.
