“First time I've been wrong”. Tim Bradley made a prediction for the rematch between Fury and Usyk
Former world champion Timothy Bradley has made his prediction for the second fight between WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk and former world champion Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs).
Seven months after their first historic fight in May, where Usyk won and became the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over 20 years, these two heavyweights will meet again in Saudi Arabia in December.
"Yes, I think Usyk will win again. I’ve been wrong many times. I picked Fury to win the first fight, and I was wrong. Fury was on his way to victory, but then Usyk turned it around and beat him," Bradley said.
The first fight was intense, with the "Gypsy King" pulling ahead in the middle rounds, but Usyk seized the initiative, as he has done before, confidently defeating the Briton in the ninth round.
That was enough to hand Fury the first defeat of his professional career.
Earlier, former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua also shared his prediction for the Usyk-Fury rematch.
