Oleksandr Usyk could be ready for Nigeria’s UK born Anthony Joshua after two fights at heavyweight, his manager, Egis Klimas, has said.
The undisputed cruiserweight champion defended his world titles with an eighth-round knockout of Tony Bellew on Saturday night, and is expected to join Joshua in the top division.
His manager, Klimas, admits Usyk would not immediately challenge the unified champion for his WBA ‘super’, IBF and WBO belts, but will quickly become a serious threat to any of his new rivals.
“If we move to heavyweight, we need to move very professionally, so it may take a few months for him [Usyk] to prepare,” said Klimas.
