The former world champion in the first heavyweight spoke about postponing the fight for the title of absolute champion.
Tony Bellew shares his opinion on the postponement of the fight for the absolute title in the heavyweight division between Tyson Fury and Alexander Usik.
According to the former world cruiserweight champion, the British boxer was accidentally injured, because it does not benefit anyone.
“It’s not good that someone gets hurt. It just ruins everything. So, for that matter, it’s definitely not good for anyone. Both candidates were at their peak. The only thing that worries me at the moment is that with either of them again nothing like that happened .
I know the organizers have set a fine of $10 million in case they have to reschedule the match. But this is a rare case! Someone may have been injured… But it’s not his fault,” Boxing News 24/7 quotes Bellew as saying.
We remind you that the fight between Usik and Fury will take place on May 18 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Bellew previously expressed confidence in Usik’s victory over Fury.
