Usyk and Fury were expected to fight for the absolute world title at the end of 2023. But after the fight with former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, Fury admitted the possibility of a postponement.
Usik’s manager says Fury must provide proof of need to postpone fight
“We expected Fury and Usik to fight on December 23. We had such an agreement, both sides signed it. But we have been in boxing for a long time, we know that if a boxer is not ready , he will not enter the boxing ring.
You have to be flexible. Usyk will not fight on December 23. The fight has been postponed until early 2024,” Krasyuk said on the iFL TV YouTube channel.
