"People are tired": Usyk made unexpected comments about "magnificent" Fury

Unified heavyweight world champion Alexander Usik (20-0-0, 13 KOs) has complimented British Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs). The Simferopol native called the Gypsy King, as the Manchester native is nicknamed, a great man and father.

Usik said this in an interview with the British portal TNT Sports. At the same time, the Ukrainian boxer reproached his opponent for the fact that he still has not agreed to hold a fight against him, which will determine the strongest fighter of the division and the absolute world champion.

"As a person I think he's a great man. I think he's a great man, a great father, a great family man, and a great athlete as well. The only thing I can say is that he has too many words instead of actions. The whole world wants to see a fight between Oleksandr Usik and Tyson Fury, and we have to make it happen. People are tired of talking. We need to do, not talk," Usik said.

We will remind, on August 26 Usik will make a mandatory defense of his titles against Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs) in Wroclaw. In case of victory, Alexander hopes to hold the unification of all heavyweight belts in a fight with Fury.
