Agit is desperate to fight Usyk,\u201d Brown said to iFL TV. \u201cHe feels that he\u2019s the best heavyweight in the world at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brown noted that Kabayel has been aggressively pursuing the fight and believes the unbeaten German has the style and ability to trouble Usyk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe really wants this fight. It\u2019s all down to Usyk,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>\n<p>Brown went further when discussing Kabayel\u2019s chances, describing him as one of the most dangerous fighters in the division.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOleksandr Usyk is not getting any younger. He had a really tough fight in his last fight. Does he want to be getting in with killers, which I think Agit Kabayel is an absolute killer,\u201d Brown said. \u201cWe just saw what happened with the Cuban [Frank Sanchez]. He\u2019s going to knock the biggest prospect in America out. Agit murdered him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brown made the prediction while discussing possible heavyweight scenarios involving Usyk, Kabayel, Tyson Fury, and Anthony Joshua. Kabayel entered the ring after Usyk\u2019s win over Rico Verhoeven on May 23 and challenged the Ukrainian champion.<\/p>\n<p>Brown believes Kabayel\u2019s recent performances show exactly how dangerous he has become.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s extremely good. I think he\u2019s very, very good,\u201d Brown said. \u201cI really hope that him and Usyk fight each other because I think it\u2019d be a hell of a fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked directly who he would pick, Brown did not hesitate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think Agit wins.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1781824940_407_hqdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brown discussed the possible matchup, making it clear that he rates Kabayel highly and views him as a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":646204,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-646203","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646203","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=646203"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646203\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/646204"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=646203"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=646203"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=646203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
