Comments Thread For: Usyk Promoter Says Fury Needs to Furnish Proof of Injury to Move off Dec. 23 Fight Date

[IronDanHamza]

How about Fury sticks to the date he agreed to and was insisting on mere days ago?

Because he got bashed up obviously and won’t be ready for that date.

What possible logical reason could there be to let the fight die by insisting on that date? It’s a ridiculous notion.

Whatever happened to "Usyk must fight on December 23, he has no choice. I'll sue him if he doesn't"?

Not surprised it's you with the double standards. Fury shouldn't be surprised he's seeing his own BS coming back at him.

It’s not a double standard.

He got dropped, hurt, bashed up and obviously won’t be ready in 7 weeks time now which obviously wasn’t part of the plan.

You are actually telling me if this fight falls through because of the date it’s not Usyk’s fault?

They want to face fury when he is at his weakest. Shameful from team Usyk

Fury claims that he has no cut. Check his IFL TV interview. He took his hat off to prove it. Journalist told him that fight in december has no sense now for him and Fury replied how is that.....so why to protect him??

Really? Who is to blame that Fury is out his shape? Why he did not train properly, why he did not took this match seriously? Is it Usyk fault? He was brave before Ngannou fight to call out Usyk for december 23...

fury has a bruise to his ego which will take 3 weeks to go down, he took a black eye for the sport of boxing which will fade but may never go fully & hes deflated interest in a big boxing unification fight by taking this crossover fight before he took care of that possibly

he now needs to take care of a little determined ukranian who poses different challenges to ngannou and usyks chances of winning have now just increased as this fight will hurt fury i would say

As a true fighting man that Usyk claims he is, he should wait for fury to heal up and then face the best version of fury. This only shows me Usyk is scared of fury being at his best

While Usyk chickened out last December and in April, this time he is right. But in any case, he should not be too bold in his talks, as he was KOed by a bum and saved by a nasty display of corruption.

Ok? He got dropped, hurt, and beat up at times. He won’t be ready in 7 weeks.

Why die on that hill? Only Usyk’s team can be blamed if the fight doesn’t go ahead due to the date. what difference does December make to Jan or Feb?

[Smash]

if fury needs time to get his head right then usyk should just be quiet and let him do that

however, knowing fury, he can be unpredictable, he may make noises about needing a bit of a break but then 24hrs later say come on you dosser im signing for december
