KRASYUK: “If Fury is really injured, then what can we do?”

K2 Promotions Ukraine General Manager Alexander Krasyuk He said whether the fight between WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight world champion Alexander Usik (21-0, 14 KOs) and WBC belt holder Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) could be moved to another date.

– Usyk wants to fight on December 23. We organized a training camp in Spain. We are targeting December 23. We initially refused to postpone, but what can we do if Fury is truly injured?

We wouldn’t want to beat a Fury like we did in Saturday’s fight. Beating such a person brings neither benefit nor merit.

We want Fury to be at his best. That’s what we want to see because we’re not just thinking about belts. We’re trying to create a story, and that story needs to be compelling.

– Usyk wants Fury to give up his WBC title if he can’t fight him.

– From where? Fury had to give up the belt a few years ago and we know how that goes. We need it. We need such a personality in boxing. It gets a lot of attention, and no matter how positive or negative the character is, we all benefit from that,” Krasyuk said.

On October 28, a 10-round fight took place between Tyson Fury and former UFC champion Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia. Fury earned a hard-fought split decision victory (95-94 Ngannou, 96-93 Fury, 95-94 Fury).

2020 Olympics champion boxer Batyrgaziev decided to take a break from his career

Olympic champion and former interim WBA super featherweight champion Albert Batyrgaziev decided to take a break from his professional career.

At the beginning of July in Istanbul at the “IBA.PRO 8” tournament, Batyrgaziev lost early to the British James Dickens and lost the IBA.PRO champion and interim WBA champion titles in the second featherweight division. For the 27-year-old Russian, this was the first defeat in his professional career.

— I want to tell you honestly about my plans. Many people ask about their future career. Now I have decided to take a conscious break from my professional career. For me, boxing has been and remains a huge part of my life. Therefore, this choice is now very difficult. My whole sports life has been a race to the top: four Russian championships, an Olympic medal in Tokyo and then turning professional, where I went undefeated.

The last fight on July 2 was a turning point for me. The first defeat made me look at many things differently. I thank Allah for the trials and mercies that helped me become a better person. Since I have always felt a responsibility not only in the ring, but also before society, now is the time to become more active in projects that I have long planned, for example, supporting the development of sports infrastructure in my native regions. This doesn’t mean I’m saying goodbye to the ring. I remain an active boxer. But now all my work is outside of it. I thank everyone for their incredible support along this path: both in moments of triumph and in moments of challenge. She gives strength. I promise this new chapter will be just as honest and purposeful. I’m not saying goodbye, I’m just saying “goodbye,” Batyrgaziev wrote in the Telegram channel.

Batyrgaziev won gold in the weight category up to 57 kg at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. In the professional ring he has 12 wins and one loss.
