Usyk’s disparages Jake Paul – “I’d have to fight him with one hand behind my back”
Oleksandr Usyk, the current heavyweight champion, is exploring new possibilities in his career as he gears up for a highly anticipated rematch against Tyson Fury. This rematch, scheduled for December 21 at Wembley Stadium, follows Usyk’s split decision victory over Fury in their previous bout. Usyk, known for his exceptional skills and achievements in boxing, might be contemplating a shift to a different combat sport.
Usyk’s coach, Sergey Lapin, has hinted at the champion’s potential future moves. In a recent interview with Betway on YouTube, Lapin revealed that Usyk might consider various options after his rematch with Fury. These options include dropping down in weight, entering the MMA cage, or even participating in Conor McGregor’s Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. Lapin emphasized Usyk’s versatility and willingness to explore new challenges, stating, “He’s proven he’s the best of this generation and, once he’s retired Tyson Fury, he will consider his options.”
Lapin also mentioned the possibility of Usyk facing off against notable fighters in different combat sports. He speculated about potential matchups with UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones, a third fight with Anthony Joshua in the MMA cage, or a cruiserweight boxing match against Jake Paul. However, Lapin humorously noted that Usyk would need to be seriously handicapped to make a fight with Paul fair, perhaps fighting with one hand behind his back.
The idea of Usyk transitioning to bare-knuckle boxing has gained traction, especially with McGregor showing interest in the matchup. Lapin reached out to McGregor on Instagram, suggesting a collaboration with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. McGregor responded positively, indicating that he is open to the idea.
Usyk himself has given the potential switch to bare-knuckle boxing the green light, sharing Lapin’s post and adding, “Let’s talk.” This move could add a new dimension to Usyk’s career, attracting a different audience and presenting fresh challenges.
While Usyk’s immediate focus remains on his rematch with Fury, the possibilities for his future are intriguing. The rematch promises to be a significant event, with both fighters aiming to solidify their legacies. For Usyk, a victory over Fury would mark another milestone in his illustrious career and open the door to exciting new opportunities in the world of combat sports.
As the fight date approaches, fans and analysts alike are keen to see how Usyk’s journey unfolds, both in the boxing ring and potentially in other arenas of combat sports.
