Oleksandr Usyk, the unified world heavyweight champion, has hinted at his next move, suggesting a plan to become a four-time undisputed champion. In a recent interview in Bangkok, Thailand, Usyk expressed his determination to reclaim the title, despite some organizations stripping him of his title. He emphasized, 'The green belt is always my favorite. I should have four belts, and some people say I'm not an undisputed champion anymore. But that's only temporary.'
Usyk's next fight remains uncertain, but his advisor, Serhii Lapin, has indicated that the winner of the upcoming Fabio Wardley vs. Joseph Parker bout will be a strong contender for his return. Usyk, who is currently recovering from a back injury, had initially planned to defend his title against Wardley in the first quarter of 2026. However, he recently opted to drop one of his belts and pursue an immediate rematch with Tyson Fury in Riyadh in December, despite the lack of a pressing mandatory demand.
This strategic move highlights Usyk's willingness to adapt and his commitment to staying at the top of the heavyweight division, even as he ages. With his exceptional skills and determination, Usyk remains a force to be reckoned with, and his fans eagerly await his next move in the ring.
