Tyson thinks a lot of people are still waiting for the two Britons to meet
WBC heavyweight belt holder Tyson Fury said he was ready to fight the next fight with the ex-world champion Anthony Joshua. First of all, it depends on whether in the near future they will be able to organize a fight for the title of absolute champion with the holder of the WBA / WBO / IBF / IBO titles Oleksandr Usyk.
“I still think people would love to see this fight. So if Oleksandr Usyk doesn’t want to fight for whatever reason, then we’ll go ahead and offer the fight to AJ.”
Fury has previously stated that he is not going to wait until next year to fight Usyk. The Briton is set to announce his next opponent within a week.
Recall, Usyk said that the duel with Fury in December is impossible. The Ukrainian needs to recover from injuries and rest after the rematch with Anthony Joshua.
Usyk also said that he was primarily interested in a duel with Fury. According to the Ukrainian, there is no more interest in boxing with any other athlete.
Last month, the Ukrainian defeated Briton Anthony Joshua in twelve rounds by split decision: 115-113, 116-112 and 113-115.
Immediately after the victory in a rematch over Joshua Usyk called out WBC champion Tyson Fury to fight. In turn, the Gypsy King demands $500 million for a unification fight with Usyk.
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.
