"Greedy Belly, I love you." Usyk mockingly addressed Fury

Ukrainian unified world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) trolled British boxer Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs). After signing a contract with the Arabian agency Skill Challenge Entertainment, our compatriot turned to the Gypsy King, as the Manchester native is known, and reminded him of his greed.

Usyk said this during a conversation with journalists in Saudi Arabia, which was recorded by the Boxing King Media YouTube channel. He added that he did not pay attention to Tyson's statements and also noted that he was determined to fight the World Boxing Council belt holder.

"Yes, we want big fights. We want one very big fight with Tyson Fury, which I think Skill Challenge will be able to organise. Everything Tyson Fury says, he says in the mirror. He gets up and starts talking. He gets a kick out of it. What if you can't organise a fight with Fury? We have plans, but I can't talk about it now. Is Fury your toughest opponent? I haven't fought him yet. The most difficult opponent for me is myself. Greedy Belly, I love you. You're a drunk," Usyk said with a smile.

It will be recalled that on August 26, Usyk is due to hold a mandatory defence in a fight against Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs). It is also known that Saudi Arabia intends to organise the fights Usyk - Fury and Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs) - Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) in December on the same night. The media published the boxers' fees for the grand show. The total amount will be at least $250 million. At the same time, Anthony has already confirmed his fight against Deontay.

Earlier, Tyson called Usyk an ugly coward and expressed his readiness to fight the Ukrainian this summer. In addition, he accused the Ukrainian of greed, which led to the disruption of the fight on April 29. And Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn expressed confidence that Fury would not fight until winter.

At a press conference in Tenerife, Tyson Fury recently made a rude remark about Oleksandr Usyk. He also promised to destroy the Ukrainian champion.

As OBOZREVATEL previously reported, Oleksandr Usyk said that he was going to arrange a fight with Tyson Fury. The Ukrainian boxer also accused his British rival of lying. In response, the Gypsy King's team said that Usyk was only interested in money.
