A potential heavyweight megafight between WBC champion Tyson Fury and IBF/WBO/WBA champion Oleksandr Usyk is likely to take place next year, not around Christmas at the end of 2022. About this, referring to the co-promoter of the British Bob Arum, said the columnist
ESPN Mark Kriegel.
“This is a 50/50 fight. Was talking to Bob Arum today <...> As to whether it would be in December… “Extremely unlikely,” according to Arum. According to another source I spoke with, the likely date is now the Super Bowl weekend in February, or a week later, ”said Kriegel.
In other words, this February 11 or 18.
Fury is waiting for 4 more days. And then everything
The journalist added that the most likely venue is Near East, though not necessarily Saudi Arabia. Qatar and the UAE are also among the options.
Forecast of an expert, a former boxer: Usyk-Wilder is better than Usyk-Fury. The ex-rival of the Ukrainian believes that Usyk can use Fury’s size against him.
Meanwhile in Britain, the promoters’ verbal brawl: Warren takes Hearna for Usyk-Fury – “his predictions are as good as hemorrhoids for a jockey.”
