Watch Stanionis vs. Ortiz Jul.8 live on DAZN
Two-weight world champion Shakur Stevenson believes his fellow American Jared Anderson can beat unified world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.
Anderson fought on Saturday when he beat former world champion Charles Martin, offering fans a few glimpses of what they can expect when he inevitably does challenge for the heavyweight division's biggest prize.
Now Stevenson has had his say on what Anderson should do next and he believes it should be a matchup with one of the world's best pound-for-pound fighters.
“I wanna see him fight Usyk. That’s the fight that I would like to see,” Stevenson told Tha Boxing Voice.
“I think Usyk is a great fighter. I think Jared has a lot of dog in him. I think it would be interesting to see boxer vs. dog. I think Jared’s dog is gonna come out on top.”
Uysk returns to action next month when he defends his three world heavyweight titles against mandatory challenger Daniel Dubois in Poland.
