Another trolling from a Ukrainian
WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk in a humorous style addressed the WBC world champion Tyson Fury.
“Greedy Belly, see you again!”, Usyk signed a collage on Twitter, where, in addition to him and Tyson, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua are depicted.
The unification fight between Usyk and Fury was planned to take place on April 29. However, the parties did not reach an agreement and suspended the negotiations. According to manager Egis Klimas, the Gypsy King team demanded too much, no matter how much Usyk compromised.
The World Boxing Association ordered Usyk to defend his title against Dubois. Usyk said that he plans to fight the Briton at the end of the summer. Three potential venues are being considered for the fight: the UK remains the main option, and the fight could also be organized in Poland and the Middle East.
The WBA has already set a promotional bid for the bout between Usyk and Dubois. The event will take place on May 25 in Houston. The minimum bid is one million dollars. At the same time, Usyk will receive 75% of the total prize fund, and Dubois – 25%.
In case Dubois fails to enter the ring, the Ukrainian champion can fight Martin Bakole or Deontay Wilder. Both boxers expressed a desire to box with Usyk.
Recall that Skill Challenge Entertainment plans to host a match of champions Usyk-Fury and a face-to-face fight of two former world champions Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder in the Middle East. According to promoter Eddie Hearn, the deal could bring the boxers up to $400 million if a night with two top fights can be arranged.
