The conversations were before the rematch with Joshua
WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has instructed his co-promoter Frank Warren to organize his next fight with WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO title holder Oleksandr Usyk. It is reported that the first conversations with the Ukrainian team were conducted even before the rematch against Anthony Joshua.
“This is the boxing World Cup, we will make it,” Warren said.
Earlier, Usyk’s promoter, Alexander Krasyuk, denied that the fight with Fury would be held on December 17 in Saudi Arabia. According to him, negotiations are ongoing.
According to the Daily Mail, the venue for the fight will be the capital of Saudi Arabia – Riyadh. The total honorary fund is 125 million pounds. They want to fight on the eve of the 2022 FIFA World Cup final in Qatar.
Immediately after the rematch victory over Joshua Usyk called out WBC champion Tyson Fury to fight. Following the results of all twelve rounds, Usyk defeated Joshua by a split decision of the judges.
