Usik contacted the WBC regarding the future and received an official response
WBC President Mauricio Suleiman commented on a possible fight for the world heavyweight champion Alexandra Usika against former WBC champion Deontay Wilder.
Suleiman said: “We undoubtedly hope to see Usyk in the ring again. He returned to the WBC with a request for a voluntary defense of the title, which was accepted, and now we are waiting for the details of his future fight. Wilder has been the WBC champion for five years, he is incredibly strong and has the right to fight in voluntary defense.”
Previously, Alexander Usik (24-0, 15 KOs), the owner of the WBC, WBO, WBA and IBF heavyweight titles (over 90.7 kg), talked about his plans and admitted when he plans to end his professional career.
