As OBOZREVATEL previously reported, on March 10, Fury delivered a tough ultimatum to Usyk's team. The Manchester-born fighter demanded 70% of the fee for the fight and also said he would add one per cent for each day until the contract was signed.
Oleksandr immediately agreed to the Briton's terms, making a pro-Ukrainian demand.
