Usyk Wants Tyson Fury Fight In Ukraine; Sets March 4 Deadline
WBA/IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk has again called for a unification fight with reigning WBC champ Tyson Fury, and the 35 year old southpaw has said he would very much like the fight to take place in his homeland of Ukraine. Also, in speaking at the Web Summit in Lisbon as reported by Sky Sports, Usyk set a deadline of sorts...
It seems unlikely a Usyk-Fury showdown will take place in Ukraine, as the big money offers will no doubt come from the Middle East, or maybe even the UK (although a stadium fight in February or March in the UK is obviously not ideal, what with the weather). Usyk himself said that he expects the Fury fight to be held in Saudi Arabia, yet he says he would love it to happen at the Olympic Arena in Ukraine. Money will of course talk.

At this rate he will fight Fury in Russia, all this flip flop nonsense needs to stop. he told wilder he wanted to fight him next and then silence now its fury again ? when Fury sent him the contract he turned it down (I get it, it would of been a quick turn around but he didn't vocalize that) he then said he was injured and could not do it. Then he's spotted playing basketball running around the court lol I mean come on....
Usyk's Manager Says Deontay Wilder is Real Option For Next Fight
October 3, 2022
“I’m hearing [Fury] wants to fight on December 3, which we don’t have a big problem with. But, on the other side, it’s boxing and things happen, breaking hands, breaking legs and stuff like that, so it’s hard to predict, but fingers crossed we are going to be ready. From our side, we are going to be ready 100 percent, so if the fight does not happen, don’t blame our team.”
However, if for whatever reason Fury is not available to fight early next year - then Usyk will turn his attention to Wilder - provided he defeats Helenius.
“It is a very possible fight,” Klimas said, “and actually, [Usyk] called and said, ‘if Fury’s not available and we cannot fight Fury, I would like to fight Deontay Wilder’. So, I asked him why and he said, ‘because he’s a risky fighter and I like that’.”

Usyk vs Fury can happen Dec 3, if not, Deontay Wilder is the target
October 3, 2022
However, Usyk’s manager Egis Klimas says Usyk is willing to bow to the WBC champion’s demands for the end of the year...
“From our side, we are going to be ready one hundred percent. So, don’t blame our team if the fight does not happen.”

Meanwhile, three months after their last encounter, past heavyweight kings like Ali, Holmes and Tyson were weighing-in for their next title defense, scheduled for 15 rounds......

I think it's pretty obvious Usyk is trying to copy FuryCasualfanboy likes this.
