The fight was initially expected to take place in late 2023. But Fury decided to postpone the fight due to injuries sustained during the fight with Francis Ngannou.
Usik said he wasn’t motivated by money in a fight with Fury
“I’m not 100% sure the fight will happen. I’ll only believe it when I get in the ring. When I’m standing in the corner and Fury is in the opposite corner. When there’s only ‘a referee in a white shirt between us, and I hear the sound of the gong – that’s all.’ then I will finally understand that the game has started,” AP News quotes Usyk.
