Deontay Wilder has had his say on the upcoming undisputed world heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, and the American believes that there will be one clear winner.
Wilder has previous experience facing Fury after the pair were involved in one of the best trilogies in recent memory. But the "Bronze Bomber" failed to overcome the Brit in any of these encounters after the first was drawn before being stopped by Fury in the two that followed.
While his next move is unknown, Wilder will have a keen eye on Fury vs. Usyk, and he believes the current WBC world heavyweight champion's size will prove too much for the slick Ukrainian.
"Fury’s size is what makes him gain more success. When I see him against Usyk I see how they cheated [Steve] Cunningham with that clubbing, putting his weight on him and clubbing him, and I could see him doing the same thing with Usyk, putting his weight on him," Wilder told Fight Hub TV.
"I do think Usyk has more skill, but when it comes to the size and stuff I don’t think he’ll be able to compete with the size of Fury. But who know’s that’s just my opinion.”
A date for Fury vs. Usyk is yet to be announced, but it has been confirmed that the fight will take place in Saudi Arabia.
