Tyson Fury is already in retirement, the ex-world champion Deontay Wilder 39, Oleksandr USYK 38 and Anthony Joshua 35 years old. The question arises as to who takes command in heavyweight when the entire old guard hangs the gloves on the nail. John Fury says: Agit Kabayel.
In the heavyweight, two British in particular are the heirs to the throne of the aging heavyweight king Oleksandr USYK. On the one hand, Daniel Dubois: The 27-year-old is an IBF world champion and already has the chance to end Usyk’s rule on July 19th in Wembley.
On the other hand, Moses Itauma: In the only 20-year legal interpreters, many experts see the future of heavyweight.
John Fury has a different look at the situation in the boxing king class. For the father of Tyson Fury, the Bochum Agit Kabayel is “the man you have to have in view”. Kabayel is the “Danger Man,” said Fury Senior in an interview with “Seconds Out”: “I like what he does. He is cool, calm, caught, gets in a blow, gets up again and wins.”
Fury alluded to Kabayel’s victory in February over the Chinese Zhang Zhoei. In Riad, the “Leberking” dominated the 130-kilo colossus before Zhang stretched him to the ground with a heavy left.
Kabayel got up immediately, shook himself and switched directly back into the forward gear. A round later, the 32 -year -old fighter from the Pott Zhang with his parade hook – the liver hook – ko and vowed to the interim world champion of the WBC.
Fury: “Agit Kabayel does it for me”
If he had to bet, he would “put his money on Kabayel from all these new heavyweights”, said John Fury.
“All the others like Joseph Parker (WBO interim champion, i.e. Red.), All of these people now belong to the older school, they had their chance. Your time was there and and is. Agit Kabayel does it for me. I think he can in the end with the best.”
Kabayel’s next opponent has not yet been determined. The journal “Boxport” reported on sources of Kabayel’s promoter Frank Warren, who defends “Leberking” his interim title in the summer against ex-cruiser world champion Lawrence Okolie-possibly even in Germany.
