Bivol says Usyk belongs among heavyweight greats despite Verhoeven difficulties

Dmitry Bivol explained why Alexander Usyk struggled against Rico Verhoeven, comparing it to sparring with an awkward, unpredictable opponent. Despite the challenging bout, Bivol places Usyk in the same category as Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, and Evander Holyfield. Bivol believes Usyk would perform better in a rematch and that Verhoeven would face more difficulty against power-punching boxers.
