The WBC heavyweight world champion is demanding a huge amount of money for the fight with the Ukrainian.
Tyson Fury will only enter the ring against Alexander Usik if he receives a large payment for the fight. The WBC super heavyweight world champion himself spoke about it.
According to the British boxer, this is the main and only condition, because he is not interested in anything in boxing.
“The fans want to see the Usyk-Fury fight. If there is money, we will arrange it. Usyk was offered to fight me at Wembley in April. He was offered a lot of money. But his team did not agree, they ran away and are looking for more money.
We have what we have. I understand that everyone wants to make as much money as possible. We fight for money, we all want the biggest check. Even though people say that the main thing is belt, track record and legacy, but it is not like that. The main thing is to get money, that’s all.
But if a fight with Usik comes, then no problem – I will knock him out. And if I don’t do it, you can say it all: “I told you so,” Eurosport quoted Fury as saying.
Let’s remember that early fans asked for Fury to fight Usyk.
