Derek doesn’t care who becomes the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world
Famous British heavyweight Derek Chisora commented on the upcoming fight between the WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO world champion Alexander Usik and WBC title holder Tyson Fury for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion.
“This is a great fight. I really don’t care who wins and who doesn’t. I want them to give us a great fight. I do not care. The last time we saw the undisputed heavyweight champion, you might have been peeing your pants. I’m right?”
“I answer you. The last time we had an absolute champion, you ran around mom and said: “What are we having for lunch? I want to go to McDonald’s. I want to go to McDonald’s.” So I don’t care, I just want to watch the fight.”
Two weeks before the fight with Usik, Fury was injured during sparring. The Briton’s injury required stitches, due to which Tyson will not have time to recover for the fight with Usyk. According to British cutman Jorge Capetillo, the boxer will need at least three months to recover.
The unification fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion between Fury and Usyk has been postponed to May 18. The event, as before, will be hosted by the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Penalties for boxers who refuse to fight are $10 million. At the same time, the contract for the fight between the Ukrainian and the British has a rematch clause.
