Frank Warren claims Oleksandr Usyk has an 'Achilles heel' ahead of Tyson Fury undisputed fight

Frank Warren claims Oleksandr Usyk has an 'Achilles heel' ahead of Tyson Fury undisputed fightStephen Dunkley (Round 'N' Bout Media) for Frank Warren Queensberry Promotions
The undisputed heavyweight title fight is nearly here.

Tyson Fury's promoter Frank Warren has claimed that Oleksandr Usyk has a major weakness which the WBC world heavyweight champion will look to exploit. 

Fury and Usyk will meet for all four world heavyweight title belts in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on May 18 in what is a historic fight for boxing. 

What makes this contest so intriguing to fans is the fact that these top two heavyweights have contrasting styles. Fury over recent years has become one of the division's hardest punchers, while Usyk on the other hand has used his slick footwork inside the ring to frustrate notable names including Anthony Joshua. 

Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the clash, there is no surprise that Warren is backing his fighter to emerge victorious and he believes that Fury will expose one of Usyk's major weaknesses. 

"His Achilles' heel, as I've said, and I'm surprised the so-called experts never picked up on it, has always been his body," Warren said.

"Daniel Dubois, that's what he was trained for, to go and exploit that and he nearly pulled it off."

Dubois fought Usyk last August and did manage to knock Usyk down in the fifth round, but this was ruled a low blow before the Ukrainian brought the contest to an end in round nine.
