“Really what will happen is, we will apply to the WBO for the undisputed fight and if they say, “No, you need to talk to Oleksandr Usyk” we will go to Oleksandr Usyk and we will try to make him happy to allow that fight to go on.

Interesting that he split from Eddie Hearn, maybe him and his team feels they are being given the run around and I know he had some issues before the Chisora fight and feeling he was being setup to lose to Chisora
Interesting to see how this plays out but it doesn't seem like a fight with Fury is happening anytime soon either especially without a Full CrowdLast edited by sicko; 01-11-2021, 04:06 PM.

Did you see what is being said anyway ? The WBO can override their mandatory position according to Hearn but that’s just a potential scenerio should Usyk make things difficult which we still haven’t heard directly from him other then stating he wants to see the undisputed fight himself ?Last edited by REDEEMER; 01-11-2021, 04:00 PM.

He didn't split the deal ran out unless the next fight is AJ. They may just go forward on a fight by fight basis like Brook was, Whyte even Canelo. Unlike the PBC fighters under slave contracts to their masters like "Master Finkel" the Matchroom guys appear to be able to do what they want , when they want and if Usyk goes to PBC I'll sure Hearn will still have him back when he has served his time ;-)
It's a shame more fighters weren't on freedom of movement contracts and could just fight where they wanted, it also solves all the court cases against the likes of Shelley Finkel for stealing from fighters which gives boxing should a bad name.

Why would they need his consent? He’s not the governing body & WBO President has the final say on the issue. He’ll do what he’s told. End of.
People put a lot of these inconsequential boxers on a pedestal they don’t belong. He’s a mandatory - not a champion. WBO has the final say.
