Tyson Fury – Usyk: “The belly will catch up with you”
WBC heavy belt holder Tyson’s Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) responded to the words of WBA, WBO and IBF champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) who called the British “belly”.
“I didn’t say anything. I don’t even use social media. He keeps calling me belly. I’m going to say: the belly will catch up with you. Do you remember the ad that says “Belly will get you”? I’m belly Big belly eats rabbits. Here’s what I’m going to do – I’m catching a rabbit.
Look, let’s have a fight first. There’s nothing good in talking nonsense when there’s no duel. Once we’ve agreed on it, we’ve agreed on everything, we get the date and place of the fight, then we can move on. “We’ll see if he can beat the big belly bunny,” Fury told TalkSPORT Boxing’s YouTube channel.

Oleksandr Usyk’s manager, Egis Klimas, believes that Tyson Fury would not initially fight against the Ukrainian, so the parties disagreed.
“I don’t want to go into details, but if a boxer doesn’t want to fight, he makes unrealistic demands and knows that a fight is not going to happen. They forgot that Usyk holds most of the heavyweight titles and Fury only has one.”
“They say Fury will be the face of this fight, but let’s see the pay-per-view sales for Fury – Chisora and Usyk – Chisora,” Klimas said.
The fight was previously scheduled to take place on April 29. If the parties do not agree, Usyk will have to make a mandatory defense against Daniel Dubois.

Shelly Finkel, who represents the interests of former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, reacted to the likely failure of the undisputed heavyweight title fight between Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk and Briton Tyson Fury.
“If the Oleksandr Usyk fight is present, Deontay Wilder gets it instantly,” Finkel said.
It has been learned that Usyk has closed the training camp to plan a mandatory defense of the titles previously held, namely WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO versions.

Sergei LapinManager and coaching team member of WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Alexander Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) trolled WBC belt holder Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) who didn’t want to disagree with the absolute championship to fight for.
Instead of that fight, Lapin offered Gypsy King another fight with heavyweight veteran Derek Chisora (33-12, 23 KOs).
“This is the fight Belly Fury fans have been waiting for. It will be a bomb, ”wrote Lapin, posting a poster of the Fury-Chisora 4 fight on his Instagram page.
