Boxing Social was told by the two-time champion heavyweight boxer: "We'll be seeing the African style, life. That's all that matters."
"I'm converting African style to Mexican style...both hardworking people...I love the Mexican culture."

"If you are a boxer, you have it in yourself." It has never left.

He could win easily if he used the reach and the half distance that he controls the fight, however.
"But, does Usyk have the power, does the strength? Has Usyk been dropped before?" Yes.
"Does he enjoy body shots?" He's probably not, he's been dropped with body shots a few times.
"Can he knock him out? I believe so. That's exactly what we are trying to do.
"I believe Anthony knows it, and Angel Fernandez and I will push him to get the knockout."
