Oleksandr Usyk Responds to Tyson Fury’s New Physique Ahead of Historic Bout
The Anticipated Showdown
The highly anticipated bout between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury is set to occur after prolonged negotiations, injuries, and other delays. The victor of this match will be the first heavyweight to hold all major world titles simultaneously since Lennox Lewis achieved the feat 24 years ago.
Championship Titles and Delays
“The Gypsy King” Fury currently holds the WBC championship, while Usyk boasts titles from the WBA, WBO, The Ring, and IBF. Originally scheduled for February 17th, the fight faced a setback when Fury had to withdraw due to a deep cut above one eye. In response, Saudi Arabia, the host nation, introduced a new contract clause imposing a penalty of over 100 million SEK on any fighter who pulls out moving forward.
Training and Preparations
Both fighters have had strong training camps and appear eager to make history in Saudi Arabia. Unlike his form during the fight against Francis Ngannou, Fury has seemingly taken his preparation more seriously this time around. He recently showcased his transformed physique on Instagram, prompting a response from Usyk.
