Oleksandr Usyk teases retirement decision and names opponent for next fight
Beterbiev/Bivol & Dubois/Parker DAZN PPV - BUY NOW
Unified world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk believes his retirement from boxing is on the horizon.
Uysk cemented himself as the world's number one heavyweight when he beat Tyson Fury for a second time in December to retain his WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight titles.
When it comes to what's next for the Ukrainian, it will likely be the winner of the IBF heavyweight title fight between Daniel Dubois and Joseph Parker in Riyadh.

The pair will clash on February 22 live on DAZN PPV, with the winner setting up a possible bout with Usyk for the undisputed title.
"I will fight who will win, Joseph Parker, Daniel Dubois, no problem," Usyk told Sky Sports when asked about who he will face next.
Then came the discussion about retirement and with Usyk being 38 years old, the curtain is slowly coming down on his career inside the ring and he expects to fight two more times before retiring.
"I think two years, one and a half [left in boxing]," Usyk said.
"I feel great myself. I feel I have two fights to prepare [for], not more. Just two."
