The President of the World Boxing Council, Mauricio Suleiman, only gave the boxer time to fight for the title of absolute champion.
Tyson Fury will be required to make a mandatory defense of his title. This is what the President of the World Boxing Council Mauricio Suleiman said.
According to the functionary, the Briton was given the opportunity to fight Francis Ngannou and Alexander Usik, but after that he will have to defend his belt.
“Tyson Fury, despite everything, is the WBC super heavyweight champion of the world. We are proud of that. He waited for a big fight, just like his fans.
Should Fury make a mandatory defense after his upcoming fights? Yes, he should do it. We have not made any mandatory request so that it does not create problems during negotiations for an indisputable battle. The teams face a difficult task,” Boxing News 24 quotes Suleiman as saying.
We remind you that Fury will fight from Ngannou this Saturday, October 28, in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh, and the fight with Usyk may take place in December or January.
Earlier, WBC President Mauricio Suleiman brought a special belt to the capital of Saudi Arabia for the winner of the fight between Fury and Ngannou.
