The WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight champion wants to fight in Ukraine.
Oleksandr Usyk is ready to enter the ring against Tyson Fury in late winter, early spring 2023. According to the world heavyweight champion according to the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO, negotiations are still ongoing at the moment will organize a fight for the title of absolute champion.
Usyk himself wants to fight in Ukraine, but Saudi Arabia has the best chance of hosting a high-profile fight.
“I liked the idea of fighting, maybe in early February or March, for example, on March 4, because I am Orthodox. During Lent before Easter, I am not boxed, so everything must take place before or after Orthodox Easter.
I want to fight Fury because I need a fourth belt. So I don’t want to fight others until I get it. Match organizers are trying to calculate where they can make more money. As for me, I would really like to fight in Ukraine,” Sky Sports quoted the Ukrainian boxer as saying.
We will remind, earlier Alexander Usik said that Tyson Fury is afraid to meet him in the ring.
