The undefeated former undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk is already planning the final acts of his boxing career. In an interview for the Daily Mail Boxing YouTube channel, the Ukrainian fighter shared his vision for the last major event on his professional journey.

According to Usyk, his "last dance" should be against a name of global scale and take place in the United States – potentially at a stadium in New York. He did not rule out the possibility of the match being organized by the new boxing organization Zuffa Boxing.

When asked for specific names, Usyk pointed to two of the biggest fighters in the heavyweight division. The first is Tyson Fury, whom the fighter ironically called "the greedy fat man." Although Usyk has already defeated Fury twice, a new bout between them would be one of the biggest events in sports.

The second candidate for the final match is Deontay Wilder – one of the most dangerous knockout artists in the heavyweight division, who is always ready for high-level clashes. The 38-year-old Usyk seems determined to end his career in the most impactful way possible.
