Usyk, 37, has fought 21 opponents at professional level, and has won all 22 of the fights he has had.

His bouts cover the cruiserweight and heavyweight division, with his most recent the win over Tyson Fury to become the undisputed heavyweight champion.

Usyk named that contest as the most difficult he has had, with Fury taking him to the final bell.

The Ukrainian bossed the majority of that fight and secured a knock down, but admitted Fury has the best defence of any boxer he has faced.

He was asked which Brit had the best attribute for multiple categories, and picked Chisora as the hardest puncher he has faced over Joshua.

Usyk overlooked Joshua for another category he should have been a shoo-in for – speed.

Tony Bellew was Usyk’s pick for that category, as he was best footwork.

While Usyk named Fury for best boxing IQ and at least chose not to pick Joshua for the easiest fight category – that dishonour went to Joe Joyce who he beat before turning professional.

Usyk found Tyson Fury was his toughest opponent

SunSport understands Usyk is set to watch two of his former opponents in action when Chisora takes on Joyce.

The Gyspy King is also expected to be in attendance which means the heavyweight duo could come face to face for the first time since their fight in May.
