“Volodymyr Zolotaryov believes that Klitschko Jr. succumbed to Tyson’s psychological games”, — write: sport.ua
“If you compare Alexander and Volodymyr’s fights with Fury, then Volodymyr succumbed to his psychological games. The Brit talked a lot before the fight, threw words, statements, distracted Vova as much as possible from the sports and competitive component. Somehow it affected the final result of the match.
Usyk, in turn, did not succumb to Tyson Fury’s provocations. Sasha is a good guy and turned out to be smarter and more cunning than the British boxer. Despite the difference in size, Oleksandr adjusted correctly, did not get involved in Fury’s psychological games and had a great first match, winning a brilliant victory!”
