The President of the World Boxing Organization spoke about holding a historic fight.
The WBO will not interfere in the rematch between Oleksandr Usik and Tyson Fury. This was announced by the President of the World Boxing Organization, Francisco Valcarcel.
At the same time, the functionary called to wait for the holding and result of the first fight between Ukrainian and British boxers.
Yes, we want to sanction both matches. We can allow a rematch. Let’s see what happens first because in boxing you can’t take it for granted.
Let’s see how everything goes and then build from there,” said Valcárcel in an interview on the Boxing Social YouTube channel.
We remind you that the fight between Usik and Fury will take place on May 18 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Earlier, Zhang Zhilei said that Fury may have been injured on purpose before the Usik fight.
