Tony Bellew: Oleksandr Usyk will not beat Anthony Joshua or Tyson Fury
"Do I think he is a genuine threat to the heavyweight division? Absolutely yes!"
Oleksandr Usyk can definitely do well as a heavyweight, but he will never beat Anthony Joshua or Tyson Fury, according to Tony Bellew.
The last time Oleksandr Usyk stepped foot in a UK boxing ring, Tony Bellew was on the receiving end of an 8th round knockout

Fans and pundits alike have been quick to question Usyk's credentials at heavyweight, with him being much smaller than the likes of Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.
