Earlier it became known that the Briton would not be able to enter the ring on February 17 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, due to a cut received during sparring.
“Tyson Fury is a damn coward who will do anything to avoid meeting Usyk. He asked his bitch to hit him in the eyebrow with a frying pan. You can quote me word for word. When this news was brought to Alexander, he just smiled. That's all he did. He’s too strong mentally to break,” The Ring quotes Klimas.
