Oleksandr Usyk Can Beat Tyson Fury, Says Evander Holyfield

Tyson Fury is a better boxer than Mike Tyson… is what Evander Holyfield told Inside Fighting when we caught up with the boxing legend in Las Vegas over the weekend.

It wasn’t exactly a “jab” at his former rival in the ring, because The Real Deal was still sure to credit Iron Mike for being the better slugger. He simply made it clear that in terms of technical boxing skills, Fury is superior.

As for the rumored Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk fight, Holyfield couldn’t help but hide his enthusiasm for the potential of that matchup. He doesn’t take sides on who wins the fight, but he does lay out why it won’t be a walk in the park for Fury, despite his size advantage.

Imagine asking Holyfield after he’s just been inducted to the HoF am hypocritical question about a Tyson fight. The guy should be embarrassed of himself.

Mike in his prime would easily get inside fury and knock him clean out ..just like he did to most of his opponents

[paulnewton]

Holyfield was the smaller man in his day but like he said 'size don't matter if you can fight' and he proved it.

And he thought he could do a come back at his age.

Even though I'm sure he took PEDs, he's still an exceptional fighter and classy man ... To fight at cruiser and become undisputed and do the same at heavy.... You have to be great!?

[tedklampett]

if steve cunningham a cruiser could drop fury what would mike tyson do ? ....

[publichealth]

Putting Mike and Luke in the same ring is calling for a murder.

[Shareefhamida]

Tyson with his coach was unbeatable, after his coach died, mike wasn’t the same.
