"I don't believe it": Usyk questioned one of the conditions of the fight with Fury
Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) categorically does not believe that his fight against British boxer Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion will take place on December 23. At the same time, our compatriot believes that the grand fight will not be disrupted, as the rivals have signed a contract to hold it.
Usyk said this in an interview with his YouTube channel Usyk17. According to our unified champion, he dreams of completing the story of the battle for all the belts of the super-heavyweight division. The bout will be the first in the history of the weight class with four titles at stake.
The Usyk-Fury fight was announced in September
"I don't believe that this fight will take place in December. I would like to, I really would like to, but I'm not sure. Of course, there are many things that can prevent this fight from taking place at all. But I would like nothing to prevent it. I really want to bring this story to an incredible end," Usyk said.
