Alexander Krasyuk hopes that the British world champion will stop avoiding fighting the Ukrainian.
Oleksandr Usyk and his entire team are hard at work arranging a duel with Tyson Fury. This was announced by the promoter of the Ukrainian boxer Alexander Krasyuk.
According to the functionary, the WBA, WBO and IBF world champion really wants to have a unification fight with the British boxer.
If the WBC title holder continues to avoid the fight, another defense will be held against IBF mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic.
“Only God knows what’s going to happen. I’m not going to tell you everything, but I’m going to tell you where we’re going. Everybody wants to see the big fight, the whole world wants it. We want not only to see it , but to host it. Next week will show us, where we are going. But who can be sure? Even if Tyson Fury wanted to split the fee 70/30 and said, “I’m here,” did he hesitated to put his signature on the contract.
If Tyson Fury avoids the fight again and Hrgovic is the opponent, we will follow the IBF rules and fight the mandatory challenger. Hrgovic is the mandatory opponent. But the Hrgovic fight is difficult if you are a promoter. He doesn’t have a very famous name. We’ll be polite and say that few people are interested in watching him compete. Therefore, the only force that will promote this fight is Usyk,” said Krasyuk in an interview with ProBox TV.
It can be recalled that Hrgovic’s promoter had previously told his client when Usyk’s fight should be announced.
