The Swedish heavyweight boxer explained why the world champion has never fought anyone.
Otto Wallin just explained why Tyson Fury has never fought Oleksandr Usyk or any other boxer.
According to the Swedish boxer, who already met with the Brit in 2019, Fury not only does not want to take risks, but at the same time earn more, so he chooses financially profitable opponents who will definitely not lose to him.
The 32-year-old would also like to have a rematch with Fury, but understands that it will be very difficult to do so.
“Fury is in the position where he is – one of them, and I’m there – and there are a lot of fighters like that, who want to fight him. So, I think that until he is forced to fight me, it will be very difficult to fight back.
He can choose his opponents. He will choose the battles where he can gain the most and have the least risk. It can even fight fighters like Jon Jones or Francis Ngannou.”
The Swede also explained why, in his opinion, Fury’s fight against Usyk failed.
“Yes, I was not involved in the negotiations, but from the outside, it seems that Tyson often overplays and complicates everything. He contradicts himself.
I think Fury has a problem. Look, Usyk has a fight, he will fight Dubois in August. Fury has never been boxed. He last fought in December against Chisora. Tyson could have fought well and defended the title, but he didn’t.
Fury keeps saying he’s ready to fight everyone, and everyone avoids fighting him. No one believed him. He was very difficult to work with,” Wallin told Boxingscene.
Fury’s promoter previously confirmed that there will be no fight against Usyk this year.
