A legendary British heavyweight predicts "bloodbath" in the Fury vs. Usyk showdown

The veteran of the heavyweight division, Derek Chisora, shared his expectations for the heavyweight championship bout between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.

"Fury will have to box. He can't just stand there because his eye hasn't healed yet. The cut under his eye is still visible. I know Usyk will be training to target the eye, to open it up. So, it's going to be a bloodbath. There will be a lot of blood," Chisora told the YouTube channel Lights Out.

The first championship bout in the heavyweight division between Fury and Usyk will take place on May 18th in Riyadh. Initially scheduled for February 17th, the fight was postponed due to a cut Fury sustained in training camp.

The bout between the Gypsy King and the Ukrainian will be the main event of the boxing evening in Riyadh. Earlier, the organizers announced the full undercard for the boxing event on May 18th.

By the way, the WBC heavyweight champion, Fury, revealed the month in which the rematch against Usyk is planned.
