Oleksandr Usyk gives hilarious answer about gorilla fight as he promotes heavyweight rematch with Daniel Dubois in London

In the world of social media, there’s never a shortage of bizarre hypotheticals — and the latest one to make the rounds is no exception.

The internet has been buzzing with a quirky question: Who would win in a fight — 100 men or a single silverback gorilla? It’s the kind of outlandish topic only the internet could come up with, but now it’s roped in an unlikely heavyweight: Oleksandr Usyk.

The Viral Battle Between Man and Beast

Though it only recently resurfaced, this viral debate actually dates back to 2020, when a Reddit user tossed the question into the whowouldwin subreddit.

Users then had a field day theorizing everything from physical power to strategy in this hypothetical clash.

The discussion has gained fresh life across platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.

And now, it’s reached the ears of a world champion — one who isn’t afraid to dive into weird scenarios with a straight face.

Usyk Gets Asked the Gorilla Question… With a Personal Spin

While doing press rounds ahead of his upcoming fight, Usyk was caught off guard when talkSPORT posed a hilarious variation of the internet’s favorite new question.

They didn’t ask how many regular men it would take to beat a gorilla.

Instead, they wanted to know: How many Oleksandr Usyks would it take to take down a silverback?

Without missing a beat, the undefeated Ukrainian boxing champ gave an unexpected answer: none of him — just maybe two of his sons.

“My son, enough maybe,” Usyk replied with a grin.

Then, he reconsidered: “Okay maybe two of my sons, Mykhailo and Kyrylo.”

His confidence in his children was both hilarious and heartwarming.

Kyrylo and Mykhailo, aged 12 and 10, aren’t even in boxing — they’re training in judo.

But Usyk’s faith in them was unshakable.

When asked if just one Usyk would be enough to win the battle himself, the 38-year-old shrugged and responded, “Yeah, yeah.”

Focused on the Real Fight — Not the Hypothetical One

Usyk’s playful responses came in the middle of a serious training camp as he prepares for a blockbuster heavyweight rematch against Daniel Dubois.

The fight, now officially confirmed, is set for July 19 at Wembley Stadium.

The stakes couldn’t be higher — all four major heavyweight belts will once again be on the line.

How We Got Here: The Road to Dubois vs Usyk II

This rematch has been brewing since last August, when Usyk stopped Dubois in the ninth round during their bout in Poland.

That match sparked major drama after Dubois dropped Usyk with a body shot that was controversially ruled a low blow — a decision that left Dubois’ camp fuming.

Despite Usyk vacating the IBF title after his win over Tyson Fury, Dubois now holds that belt, making him the logical next challenger.

Initially, Usyk had been lined up to face the winner of Dubois vs Joseph Parker.

But after Dubois pulled out due to illness, Parker went on to beat Martin Bakole, setting the stage for Usyk vs Dubois II.

Still Undisputed, Still Undefeated

After defeating Tyson Fury twice and unifying the division, Usyk remains one of the most dominant forces in heavyweight boxing.

He’s already made history as the undisputed champ at both cruiserweight and heavyweight.

Now, with another high-stakes clash around the corner, Usyk is balancing the intensity of fight prep with a little humor — and proving once again that he’s one of the most down-to-earth champs in the sport.
