Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk is making waves in the heavyweight boxing scene. His recent victory over Tyson Fury in a close split decision match not only earned him the WBC Heavyweight title but also kept his unbeaten record intact. Usyk’s coach, Sergey Lapin, is optimistic about what the future holds for the talented fighter post his showdown with Fury.
Lapin has brought up the idea of Usyk taking on MMA fighters like Jon Jones, having rematches with Anthony Joshua, or even stepping into the ring with popular boxer Jake Paul. Paul, currently preparing for bouts against Mike Perry and Mike Tyson, could be a potential opponent for Usyk given his presence in the boxing sphere.
With numerous exciting prospects ahead, Usyk’s journey in the heavyweight division seems full of promise as he looks to cement his position at the top and delve into varying opportunities within combat sports.
