In a recent interview with BoxingSocial, the former champion was asked about this potential heavyweight matchup. He then picked ‘The Gypsy King’ to win this fight, highlighting Fury’s exceptional skill in making adjustments within a fight. Holyfield believes that this was what set him apart from other fighters.

“No! I think Tyson Fury has shown that he is a great fighter. Out of all the fighters, he’s the one that has been able to make adjustments, and making adjustments makes you better,” he said. In addition, he firmly stated that no one has been able to defeat Fury, emphasizing the significance of this unbeaten record. He acknowledged that if nobody has beaten you, it demonstrates an inability to lose.

“The fact of the matter is, ain’t nobody has beat him! I don’t know [how Usyk could beat Fury]. Ain’t nobody did it and, until somebody does it, who’s to say anybody can? If nobody has beat you, then you ain’t shown you can lose,” he added.

Holyfield believes that Fury will have the upper hand coming into this bout like many. However, like ‘The Gypsy King’, Usyk also possesses an undefeated record and is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

Will Usyk vs Fury take place this year?

Earlier this year, it appeared that Fury and Usyk had reached an agreement for their highly anticipated matchup. However, negotiations between the two camps hit a stumbling block and publicly collapsed. Some observers pointed fingers at Fury, claiming that his demands were excessive, while others suggested that Usyk was waiting for a lucrative payday in Saudi Arabia.

As talks of the Fury vs Usyk matchup resurface, the prospect of this epic clash landing on the same card as Anthony Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder adds even more excitement to the mix. Fans eagerly await official confirmation of the fight, hoping that the substantial investment from the Gulf nation will bring the negotiations to fruition with the country’s biggest sports company also recently signing the Ukranian.
