“I don’t judge anyone, anyone at all. It happens, it’s boxing. We have to take this seriously because we are at a different level. I have a lot at stake. I didn’t celebrate a single holiday, not the New Year, not my birthday, not my children’s birthdays, which took place while I was in training. I was not with my wife when she gave birth,” Usik said, as quoted by ESPN.
Fury and Usyk were supposed to meet in the ring on February 17, but the fight was postponed to May 18 due to a cut over his right eye that Fury received during a fight. Both fighters have agreed on a new date, the location of the fight remains the same – Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
