The manager of the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO world champion tells what is happening in the organization of the fight.
Negotiations on the organization of the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion are nearing completion. This is what the manager of the Ukrainian WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO title holder Egis Klimas said.
According to the functionary, he is in regular contact with representatives of Tyson Fury. However, the parties have not yet agreed on the venue of the match. In fact, during the final conversation, the WBC champion team offered two other possible options.
“We were in talks before Fury vs Chisora, so we attended the fight. So I’ve talked to Queensbury Promotions before and this morning we talked to Top Rank via video call. We all agreed and almost agreed, it remains to discuss not so Two of today’s best heavyweights in a duel for the title of undisputed champion of the world is what fans need.
Most likely, the fight will take place no later than March 4 and, most likely, in the Middle East. But in today’s conversation, I heard about other options – maybe London or Qatar. But, probably, we are targeting Saudi Arabia, because they are very interested in this match. Saudi Arabia loves Usyk,” Klimas mentioned via talkSPORT.
We remind you, Tyson Fury said earlier that he is ready to meet in the ring with Alexander Usik.
