Steve Cunningham is aware of what it takes to get in the ring with Tyson Fury after facing the current WBC champion in 2013.
Cunningham performed well and even managed to drop Fury, but he was unable to finish the job and he was stopped by the much bigger man in round seven.
After walking away from boxing in 2021 following a win against Frank Mir, Cunningham still follows boxing and often provides his opinion.
Fury faces Oleksandr Usyk on May 18 with every heavyweight title on the line live on DAZN PPV, and Cunningham has given his verdict on the undisputed battle.
"I think Usyk wins by decision against Fury. Either that or Fury gets disqualified,” said Cunningham when speaking to World Boxing News.
“Fury’s going to have to lean and lay all over Usyk to tire him down as he does usually. I think the referee will be alerted to this before the fight [by team Usyk] and Fury will lose points.”
