Fury is always causing trouble for everyone

It was previously expected that Usyk will fight directly against Fury. However, the Ukrainian is not yet ready to return to the ring due to an injury, but the Briton wants to fight already this year.

Fury has agreed to a duel with Anthony Joshua on December 3 to fight for the World Boxing Council (WBC) championship belt.

“With Fury, you never know and you never will. He announces his retirement and then announces his return to boxing…One minute he wants to fight Usyk, the next he wants to fight Joshua,” BoxingScene quoted Usyk’s representative as saying.

Usik is not going to sit with his hands in his lap. In the interview “The Ring”, he named the boxer he wants to fight. The Ukrainian boxer is going to fight the winner of the duel between Deontay Wilder and Robert Helenius.

“He [Fjūrijs] always causes problems for everyone, especially when it comes to the next fight. Tyson is simply afraid of Usyk. We are not going to run after him. He has one belt, but we have three,” said Klim.

Usyk could return to the ring at the beginning of 2023.

Usyk owns the World Boxing Association (WBA), International Boxing Federation (IBF) and World Boxing Organization (WBO) championship belts, as well as the International Boxing Organization (IBO) title, which is not so prestigious compared to the others.

35-year-old Usik has won all 20 fights, 13 of them by knockout. In January 2018, he defeated Mairi Briedi by points in the first heavyweight category semifinal of the first season of the World Boxing Super Series in Riga.
