Fury prepares sensational fight with Ukrainian after rematch with Usyk – media

Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) is likely to rematch with legendary Volodymyr Klychko (64-5-0-1, 54 KOs) if Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) refuses to fight. The Gypsy King is ready to take such a step, as he is promised a huge fee for the confrontation with the Ukrainian.

This was reported by the Boxing Scene portal. According to the website, negotiations are underway to organize the Fury-Joshua fight, but Anthony is seriously considering ending his career. In turn, the 48-year-old Klitschko has repeatedly declared his desire to become the oldest heavyweight world champion in history.

Volodymyr's manager Tom Löfler confirmed that the Ukrainian is in good shape and ready for a comeback. "Klychko would be very interested in a rematch with Fury. Volodymyr is in great shape, he can get into the ring at any time. Let's see what happens," said the boxer's representative.

In addition, the desire to organize a rematch between Klychko and Fury was expressed by Turki Al-Al-Sheikh, the head of the General Directorate of Entertainment in Saudi Arabia, who is ready to provide boxers with large fees.

Recently, Volodymyr himself broke his silence and commented on his possible return to the professional ring.

Klychko Jr. fought his last fight in April 2017, when he lost by TKO to Joshua. Before that, he lost a unanimous decision to Fury. The Ukrainian and the Briton were supposed to have a rematch, but Klychko's opponent refused to do so and vacated all the belts.
