The WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight champion commented on the breakdown of the fight with the British boxer.
Alexander Usik hinted that Tyson Fury may have accidentally injured himself during training, forcing him to postpone the fight for the title of absolute world champion.
The WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight title holders accused the British boxer of being frivolous in preparation for the fight, which is two weeks away.
“I can’t judge a person. He has a cut, it happens in training camp. It seems to me that maybe some people are just arrogant about protection. I mean helmet, gloves, the procedures we do before sparring, that . , overlay Vaseline on the eyebrows or face to soften the skin.
There are a few things boxers do before every sparring session to protect their face. I repeat again: these are protective helmets and gloves for sparring partners. They are a little bigger than the ones we boxed in. We box with 10-unit gloves, and I train with 20-unit gloves. And sparring partners also practice with the same gloves.
I think that’s my opinion, that there are only good people here. And it leads to some small problems, that’s all,” Usik said in an Instagram stream.
