Usyk sent a message to his competitor, who frequently refers to him as a “middleweight” and too little to compete with him in the ring, earlier this week when he tweeted a video from a training session.
The WBA, IBF, and WBO heavyweight world champion tapped his stomach while jogging in a pool and appeared to be making a dig at Fury’s physique, saying, “Hey, belly, I’m coming for you.”
Fury uploaded a photo of himself wearing bathing trunks earlier this month with the caption: “The Middleweight is here! Where are you Belly? Mr Tyson Fury.”
When will Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk be held?
The major battle, which was initially slated for March, has been postponed for a few weeks.
All parties are aiming for April 29 as a potential date for a deal, according to ESPN.
Where will Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk be held?
According to the report, Usyk is claimed to have fulfilled his obligation under the deal that allowed the fight to take place in Saudi Arabia.
Fury must now do the same to book the fight, in which both boxers will risk ruining their pristine records.
For the fight to take place in Saudi Arabia, as the promoters had planned, both fighters must agree with the regional officials there.
If discussions to move the battle to Saudi Arabia fail, the Gypsy King’s backup plan calls for it to happen at Wembley Stadium in London.
Although Wembley had been suggested as a prospective location for the fight, it is now solely a backup option.
Fury acknowledged that he will “go where the money is” and even declared that he would be open to fighting in Derek Chisora’s backyard.
Fury vs Usyk has yet to be confirmed, but a TV channel will be announced once the fight is signed and it’s extremely likely we’ll see the fight on BT Sport Box Office, where Fury’s last seven fights have been shown.
Queensberry Promotions and Top Rank are set to promote the event.
The stats suggest Fury would have a advantage in power over Usyk, with a 73% knock out percentage over Usyk’s 65%. Tyson Fury is the younger man by 2 years, at 34 years old and has a height advantage of 6 inches over Usyk which also extends to a 7-inch reach advantage.
