Oleksandr Usyk Makes Boxing World Go Berserk Over Canelo Alvarez News

Oleksandr Usyk is currently the talk of the town after he defeated Anthony Joshua in their rematch. Following that, he was in talks to fight British boxer Tyson Fury for an undisputed heavyweight title. However, before this fight, Fury will be fighting Joshua at the end of this year. Recently, the Ukrainian fighter has revealed that he only has three fights left in his career. 

Oleksandr Usyk recently said, “I can have three more fights at the very most. It is the most realistic to be in my top form. With Fury, Canelo, and a farewell fight at Olympiyskiy. With Canelo, he said that he wanted to fight me. It would be a freak fight just for the sake of earning money.”  

He further added, “I only need to beat Fury, and then it is time to retire for me. The unification of all the belts is much more important than just a fight or another defence. I want to outbox Fury and I don’t want to work that much just for another defence. There is much more that I can achieve.”
