Alexander is tired of Tyson’s trash talk addressed to him
World champion according to WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO versions Alexander Usik stated that he does not want to talk anymore about the WBC belt holder Tyson Furyso as not to create unnecessary advertising for it.
“I don’t think about Tyson Fury. I’m here, but he’s not. Where is Tyson Fury? Is he afraid of me? I don’t know. I’m not afraid. Enough talking about Fury. Listen, I’m here. You want more information. And now I want to talk about the Ready to Fight platform, and not about Fury. And it turns out that I’m advertising it, and he’s calling me a damn rabbit.”
“I responded to his words with a smile. Look, Tyson talks a lot. Where is Tyson Fury? Daddy is here. Date of our fight? I don’t know. What does the WBC title mean to me? When I win it, I will become the absolute world champion in the second weight category,” Alexander emphasized.
Initially, the fight between Usik and Fury was planned to be organized on December 23 in Riyadh. However, it later became clear that the “Gypsy King” would not have time to prepare for this time after the fight with ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou.
According to current information, the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion between Ukrainian and British boxers is scheduled for February 17. The fight will take place in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.
