Oleksandr Usyk wants to fight three times before retiring - including a "freak" showdown with Canelo Alvarez.
The Ukrainian star recorded his second consecutive victory over Anthony Joshua last month in Saudi Arabia to retain his unified heavyweight titles. It was expected Usyk would take on Tyson Fury for all the marbles, with talks having been held prior to his win.
However it appears Usyk will have to wait before getting the shot at all the belts, with Fury set to instead defend his titles against Joshua. The 35-year-old hopes that he will still be able to step in the ring with either the WBC champion or Alvarez in the future , but would like the final fight of his career to be staged in his home country of Ukraine. “I can have three more fights at the very most," Usyk told Parimatch when discussing plans for his future in boxing.
