According to Alexander Krasyuk, negotiations with representatives of the British boxer did not last long.
Having agreed on a new date for the fight for the title of absolute world champion, Alexander Usik and his team went to a meeting with representatives of Tyson Fury. The promoter of WBA, WBO and IBF super heavyweight title holder Alexander Krasyuk spoke about it.
That is why, according to the functionary, the negotiations did not take much time, but ended in 15-20 minutes.
“Is it true that the negotiations for the Fury fight took two days? No, in fact they took 15-20 minutes.”
I will explain why. Manager Fury, Frank and George Warren, myself and Usyk worked together. Tyson was not with us, so we agreed to date people from Saudi Arabia. We tried to be very flexible. We understood that it was impossible to fight on December 23, because Fury was badly beaten in the ring. If we insist on this date, it will not bring a positive thing. This is an unconstructive position.
We discussed several dates and settled on one. The organizers slightly adjusted the schedule of other events, and here we are,” said Krasyuk in a commentary to Daily Mail Sport Boxing.
Let’s remember that earlier the promoter tried to justify Fury for his disgraceful behavior in a clash of views.
