"I'm going to..." Usyk answered the question whether he will retire after the rematch with Fury
Unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) is not going to end his career after his rematch with Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs). According to the Ukrainian boxer, after his expected victory over the Gypsy King, he will have a little rest with his family and return to training.
Usyk said this in an interview with The Stomping Ground YouTube channel. Our compatriot noted that he is not considering hanging up his boxing gloves on a nail and will return to training and the ring in a few months.
"When I beat Tyson Fury, I'm going to keep boxing. I want to keep training. Maybe I'll take three or four months off. I want to play with my 'Polissia' team and then I'll go back to the gym," Usyk said.
Last week, the boxers completed preparations for their second fight. Oleksandr arrived in Riyadh where he was met by his compatriots. In his turn, Tyson told how he was going to beat our boxer and close the defeat in May.
On December 1, an epic promo for the rematch between Usyk and Fury was released. It has already been called a disgrace to American boxing companies.
On October 23, Usyk and Fury had their first duel of looks before the second fight. The Ukrainian appeared there in an unusual way, changing his image. In addition, he forced his opponent to take an unusual step to help the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Before that, it became known that Tyson wanted to organize a trilogy with Oleksandr to make boxing history. The Briton also accused the Ukrainian of disrupting the timing of the rematch.
