Oleksandr Usyk's win against Anthony Joshua to claim the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight titles sent a shockwave through the division and now fans and pundits are contemplating an Usyk fight with the winner of Fury vs. Wilder 3.
Speaking on The DAZN Boxing Show, former crusierweight champion Tony Bellew discussed whether Tyson Fury or Deontay Wilder would be a better opponent for Usyk.
"Wilder is the perfect opponent for Uysk. He loads up every time, he telegraphs his punches. He's highly dangerous."
When it comes to Fury, Bellew believes the current WBC champion will pose a tougher test and has the attributes to beat the Ukranian.
"He dances like a middleweight at times. No one's going to be able to outbox Oleksander Usyk. That's a fact."
"No one's a better boxer than him in the whole division. The reason Oleksandr Usyk. is going to lose is because of size. Fury is simply bigger than him."
When it came to the tactical breakdown, Bellew highlighted Fury's size as a vital factor in a fight with Usyk.
"With Fury, he will just negate everything Oleksandr would do - he won't engage with him. He will draw Usyk in. Lean on him - tire him down, wear him out. He's just too big for Oleksandr Usyk."
However, the same could not be said for Deontay Wilder.
"Wilder is tall, but he doesn't have the technical ability to match Uysk - in my opinion - he just does not have it. Uysk will set traps, he will make him look foolish at times, even more foolish than he makes himself look in certain fights."
"He will make a mess, he will make him pay and it will be a long night for Deontay Wilder."
Fury and Wilder are set to go head-to-head for a third time for the WBC world heavyweight title at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Saturday night.
