We are getting closer to possibly the greatest fight in the modern era of boxing, Fury Vs Usuk, which will unify the following belts: WBC (Fury) and WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO (Usyk). So unless the fight ends with a draw, we will see the first undisputed heavyweight champion in over 20 years.

I like this form of interview as it allows to assess who is more confident and has a mental advantage. I think it's clear that Fury appeared to be mentally dominating, but it's hard to imagine anyone being better than him in this element.
Cool. Thank you for sharing that. An early face-to-face for both champions. I don't know though why they want a dark background. An interesting face-off style interview popped up 3 days ago:

Tyson Fury: "He is Oleksandr, but I am the great." Trying to be funny now? Well. he made Usyk smile a bit.
Oleksandr Usyk: "Nothing that Tyson Fury said insults me. Nothing at all."
This fight will surely be fun, I can't wait to see both fighters step on the boxing ring and I bet the pay-per-view of this will be a blast too.
Here is the countdown of their fight.

A must-watch for every boxing enthusiast to refresh our memories about the two. Also, this will be informative for those who have not known the two fighters.
Munguia was able to get the TKO win against a fighter who went the distance with Canelo. If Canelo doesn't fight Benavidez, then Munguia seems like the next best option. Munguia is never in a boring fight so I am sure against Canelo it will be a slugfest. Munguia's porous defense is his biggest weakness and would probably be his downfall against Canelo. It is still a good matchup on paper with potential to be fight of the year.
4 times he was knocked down. I didn't expect that. John Ryder has a tough chin and I thought it would go on distance for the judges' decision to be made. Ryder's corner may have already known that it could happen so they stopped the fight as early as possible to avoid more damage. A potential fight with Canelo and Munguia said it would be an honor to fight him. Yes, Munguia is an offensive weapon but sadly Ryder doesn't have a good offense and we already saw that when he fought Canelo where he mostly did just defense. Canelo will not be like that, it will be fists against fists and if Canelo's left hand is fully healed including his mental problem of being scared to throw it, then Munguia will be in big trouble.
