“You will never see…” Ex-world champion – about Usyk’s main advantage

Duke McKenzie evaluated the career of the Ukrainian champion and highlighted his strengths”, — write: sport.ua

Former world champion in three weight categories, Duke McKenzie, evaluated the career of the Ukrainian champion Oleksandr Usyk and named its main advantage:

“The main problem for opponents is that Usyk is too smart. He showed incredible performances at cruiserweight and was able to transfer his psychology to heavyweight. The Ukrainian is always one step ahead of his opponents.

Usyk delivers combined blows faster, keeps a comfortable distance, knows when and how to attack. You will never see a Ukrainian in the clinch with huge boxers, because he is too smart for that.

In the heavyweight division, everyone thinks like Fury: “I’m bigger, therefore I’m stronger.” Then, when they enter the ring, they suffer another setback. Usyk fights in the Premier League, and the rest stayed in the first division,” McKenzie shared his opinion.
