Ukrainian reacted to the fight Tyson Fury with Francis Ngannou
WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO World Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk commented on the fight between the WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou.
“I don’t have any ambitions other than one, to fight Tyson Fury. I heard that Conor McGregor has increased his weight significantly. Hey Conor, why don’t we fight at Wembley? ”, The Ukrainian responded.
Fury will fight Ngannou on October 28 in Riyadh. The rules of the fight and the number of rounds are still unknown, as well as whether the British champion title will be at stake.
Fury has not been in the ring since December 2022, when he defended his WBC title against Derek Chisora. In April, Tyson planned to have a unification fight with Oleksandr Usyk, but the Ukrainian pulled out of negotiations due to contract disagreements.
Usyk will next fight Daniel Dubois on August 26. The fight will take place in Wroclaw, Poland, at the Tarczynski Arena. It was reported that Usyk would receive 75% of the total prize fund – $6 million. Dubois can count on 25% – 2 million.
